Modernism Week Fall Preview 2025: Tickets Now Available!
Information Brought to you by The Paul Kaplan Group—Proud Proponents Since Day One
Palm Springs and The Paul Kaplan Group are once again gearing up for one of its most anticipated events of the year—Modernism Week Fall Preview 2025, taking place this October! And yes, tickets are officially on sale—so now’s the time to plan your desert escape and soak up the style, history, and sunshine that make Palm Springs the epicenter of modernist design.
🌟 A Brief History of the Modernism Week Fall Preview
While most people know about the world-famous Modernism Week in February, fewer realize that it all started as a much smaller affair—originally known as Modernism Weekend. Back then, the cornerstone was the Palm Springs Modernism Show & Sale, and The Paul Kaplan Group was there from the beginning. We proudly manned a booth at the show, handing out sheets of open house listings for midcentury modern homes around town—long before Modernism Week became the city-wide celebration it is today.
The Fall Preview was introduced as a more intimate “sneak peek” of the full February event. It allows fans of architecture, design, and Palm Springs culture to experience many of the same great tours, talks, and parties—but with smaller crowds and cooler weather. It’s the perfect way to kick off the modernist season in the desert.
🗓️ What to Expect in 2025
Modernism Week Fall Preview 2025 will feature a curated lineup of architectural home tours, insider lectures, vintage trailer shows, and exclusive cocktail parties in some of Palm Springs’ most iconic modernist homes. Expect immersive experiences that celebrate midcentury design, desert lifestyle, and architectural preservation—all wrapped in that laid-back Palm Springs vibe.
