The 10 Best Concerts & Shows in Tucson, Arizona (AZ)

March 24, 2022 Etsuko Causey

Although Tucson's fantastic weather, national parks and forests and desert provide the perfect environment for tons of outdoor recreational activities, this city of half a million people also has its share of history and culture. With a history that goes back much further than many of its southwestern neighbors, Tucson boasts turn-of-the-century architecture, historic neighborhoods, museums and the Mission San Xavier del Bac, a still-functioning 18th-century mission considered one of the most beautiful in the U.S. Mexican and Native American influences are pervasive, and the city has a distinctly Western flavor. There's also a college-town atmosphere, thanks to the University of Arizona, which has its own share of museums and a science center. Whether golfing at a world-class golf resort, horseback riding, hiking in the wilderness, discovering desert flora and fauna at the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum or exploring pre-Columbian and other art at the Tucson Art Museum, you'll have a mind-boggling array of things to do.

Cascade Lounge

Reviewed By mcdedrick - Albany, United States

The Cascade Lounge, located in the lobby of the Loews Ventana Canyon Resort, is a huge open space with large fireplace and windows overlooking the mountains. Our server Ali was delightful and put up with us successfully twice in a four hour period. They have a solid smaller food menu which we did not try, but the drinks really shine here. The rattlesnake, a spicy margarita type cocktail was delicious. Later in the evening they made me a chocolate martini perfectly, just the way I like it. No complaints. Only tiny negative is we wish they had had large ice cubes. For my husband’s bourbon on the rocks. This lounge is an excellent way to relax. Love it! Thanks all, looking forward to three more nights.
