37 South COD Ranch Road Tucson, AZ 85623 United States +1 520 615 3211 / +1 800 868 5617 http://www.codranch.com |
Located in the northern foothills of the Catalinas, just off the Mount Lemmon exit in the mining town of Oracle, this historic ranch offers retreats and facilities for reunions, corporate events and weddings in a beautiful nature setting. Here is a good place to experience the grandeur of Coronado National Forest hiking or riding on horseback. Stay in a casita (old-style cabin) or book the ranch for a private party.

 One of Tucson's top events |
11300 South Houghton Road Tucson, AZ 85747 United States +1 520 762 9100 http://www.swfair.com |
Major events attracting thousands of visitors take place on the Pima County Fairgrounds every year including the Southwestern International Raceway, drag racing, gun shows, concerts and horse shows. The main attraction, however, is the County Fair held every year during April. It's a big horse and cattle trade show, surrounded by all kinds of sideshows and it's especially interesting for kids. Be sure to attend its gem and mineral show or join in its Easter egg hunt. Admission has been USD6 per person but is being revised at this time. To get to the fairgrounds, go east from Tucson on I-10, then turn south on Houghton Road to Brekke Road. Review © 2007, Wcities |
