Save the Date - May
Downtown Phoenix
May has arrived and I am pretty happy about it! There are so many great events happening throughout the state. Continue reading to see the highlights of what is happening in Flagstaff, Phoenix and Yuma this month. Plan an outing or two that you are sure to enjoy!
Flagstaff
5/5-5/8 - Dark Sky Brewing Company will be celebrating their 8th anniversary all weekend long. Count on live music, an art market and more! Check out all of the details of this festive celebration. Must be 21+ to attend.
5/7 - Support local vendors at the Flagstaff Community Market. There will be various vendors selling food from the region, flowers and more. The market is open on Sundays from 8 am - 12 pm and until mid-October.
Guess what?!? Arizona Snowbowl has extended the season and the ski lifts are open until May 29th. Take advantage of the reasonable ticket prices and time in the snow! 75% of the lifts remain open and there is an 89” base. It’s hard to believe I am describing Arizona in May.
Phoenix
5/6 - Drop by for Rooftop Yoga at The Clarendon Hotel on Saturdays from 10-111 am. Passes cost $25 per session. Get in some outdoor exercise before it really heats up in the desert!
5/18 - The Cure is on tour and will be performing on May 18th at Desert Diamond Casino in Glendale. There are still some tickets available. This is bound to be a great show!
5/19 - 5/28 - The Spring Arizona Restaurant Week will be back this month! The Arizona Restaurant Week is a great time of year to try out restaurants. During these 10 days, food lovers have the opportunity to enjoy a prix-fixe dinner for $33, $44 or $55 per person or couple. Note that the pricing does not include drinks, tax or gratuity. See which restaurants in the valley are participating and start making reservations!
Yuma
