2 Best Performing Arts Venues in Tucson, Arizona
Sorry! We don't have any recommendations for Tucson right now.
For a city of its size, Tucson is abuzz with cultural activity. It's one of only 14 cities in the United States with a symphony as well as opera, theater, and ballet companies. Wintertime, when Tucson's population swells with vacationers, is the high season, but the arts are alive and well year-round. The low cost of Tucson's cultural events comes as a pleasant surprise to those accustomed to paying East or West Coast prices: concert tickets are as little as $20 for some performances, and touring Broadway musicals can often be seen for $35. Parking is plentiful and frequently free.
The free Tucson Weekly (www.tucsonweekly.com) and the "Caliente" section of the Arizona Daily Star www.azstarnet.com) both hit the stands on Thursday, and have listings of what's going on in town.
Rialto Theatre
Downtown
One of Tucson's hottest venues, the Rialto Theatre, once a silent-movie theater, now reverberates with the sounds of hard rock, jazz, folk, and world-music concerts. You can experience great musicians up close for reasonable ticket prices.
