New Merch Store for Pappy and Harriets Pioneertown Palace Open Now

Pappy & Harriet's Pioneertown Palace has announced a new way to purchase official branded merchandise: a fresh webstore

The store is starting out with a curated offering of the Southern California High Desert outpost’s core designs, including a variety of short and long sleeve tees, crewneck sweatshirts and hoodies, trucker hats, and tote bags.

The initial selection features two short sleeve tee shirts with a desertscape (black or cream); a short sleeve tee shirt with the venue’s interior stage art from local artist Shea Cline (grey); a long sleeve tee shirt with the exterior of the venue (grey); a crewneck sweatshirt with a desertscape (grey); a pullover hoodie with the exterior of the venue (black); a zippered hoodie with a desertscape (green); a trucker hat with the logo (black & white); and a tote bag with a desertscape (cream).

These designs originally debuted exclusively for patrons visiting Pappy & Harriet’s in person and are now available to customers globally for the first time. Certain items will only be offered for brick-and-mortar sale, but upcoming merch releases will include online-only designs. The next drop is planned for winter 2025, so stay tuned for more details.

Pappy & Harriet’s has partnered with Coachella Valley-based Windmill City Screen Printing, which uses environmentally-sensitive printing technologies on premium garments, for this first run of designs. Pappy & Harriet’s plans to collaborate with local artists for additional soft goods, as well as show posters, in the future. This includes Pappy & Harriet’s x Knitting Factory Entertainment merch that will combine the aesthetics of the venue with its entertainment company owner.

Pappy & Harriet’s also recently announced the first show with FREE entry exclusively for Local Keychain holders: local band Mick Rhodes & The Hard Eight (Sunday, August 10). The Local Keychain is an effort to thank patrons from the Morongo Basin for their long-time support of the hometown haunt. Holders receive priority entry to shows, 10% off all food, and $2 off every alcoholic drink for themselves and one guest.

The upcoming selection of live music at the venue includes two multi-day events: the third annual Pappy & Harriet’s Chopper Party (Friday, September 19 and Saturday, September 20) and the seventh annual Orville Peck’s Rodeo (Friday, November 14 through Sunday, November 16). The Chopper Party will feature performances from Paul Cauthen, The Rhyolite Sound, Gethen Jenkins, Will Worden, Frankie & the Studs, and Sik Sik Sicks. Orville Peck’s Rodeo will feature performances from Nathaniel Rateliff & the Night Sweats, Joy Oladokun, Allison Russell, Abbey Cone, Angela Autumn, Chaparelle, Emily Rose & the Rounders, Hurray for the Riff Raff, Jobi Riccio, Palmyra, The Deslondes, Uwade, and Valley James, plus a drag brunch with the queen Meatball.

See the complete calendar of events here.

Pappy & Harriet’s first opened its doors in 1982, following a ten-year stint as a biker bar, and has since become a mecca for tourists near and far and residents of the local community. The historic venue began as the cantina in an Old West frontier town built in 1946 by a group of Hollywood investors (including Roy Rogers, Gene Autry, and Russel Hayden) for use as a film and television set. Now an unpretentious cultural institution that hosts live entertainment and maintains the homestyle cooking of its husband-and-wife founders Harriet and Claude “Pappy” Allen, the performance space and restaurant is operated by the famed hospitality and live music company Knitting Factory Entertainment (“KFE”). KFE has a long history managing bars and restaurants, owning and operating music venues, and booking live events and festivals.
