Michele StuevenOutstanding in the Field will once again set up its long table at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival this spring. Situated in the Rose Garden, the popular four-course farm-to-table dinners prepared by new and returning local and international guest chefs will once again celebrate the agricultural landscape of the Coachella Valley and other Southern California farmers.
The one-of-a-kind dining experience founded by artist Jim Denevan in 1999 returns to the festival for the seventh year after a two-year hiatus, with family-style dinners taking place on each of the six nights over the two weekends of the festival (April 15-17 and April 22-24).
