Downtown

Downtown Tucson is an energetic, urban neighborhood with a growing culture and arts scene. There are many opportunities for visitors and residents, with entertaining events and restaurants popping up in recent years.

The neighborhood is fortunate to be bordered by the University of Arizona on its northern and eastern boundaries, giving the area a youthful and exciting energy. However, Downtown is best known for being Tucson’s entertainment hub. The neighborhood is home to the Tucson Convention Center, Tucson Arena, and Tucson Music Hall. Museums true to the area’s history are also scattered throughout Downtown, displaying amazing art, history, and science exhibits to Tucson residents and visitors.

Downtown Tucson is the perfect spot for your lunch break, with dozens of restaurants ranging from American fine dining to family-owned Mexican eateries. Not to mention, the bars in the area are perfect for retreating to after work or exploring the entertainment options in the city.
If you wish to unwind, Arizona’s serene outdoors would seem enough, but Downtown, you can find solace at the El Presidio Plaza or the Jácome Plaza right across the street.
