Ever been to a festival at Desert Breeze Park near Spring Valley and the Lakes? They have a few regularly on the calendar. Some folks growing up here might have attended an Extreme Thing rock concert there over the years. Last year there was Paws in the Park, a dog-centric festival. This month, there’s Tacos and Tamales, which celebrates Mexican food and culture, lucha libre wrestling, games, live painters and more. That event will make the debut of the park’s new Event Center, which basically dedicates space expressly for events. By space, we mean a 12 acre fenced venue with nearly 6 acres of grass. This also means important production infrastructure like facilities for the talent, a box office, power for stage amps, and more. It’s a pain to set up a whole festival in a park without the necessary things built into the area, so this solves that problem for a park that host events literally year round.
