Stay in Old Town Scottsdale, central Scottsdale, or Tempe if your trip centers on Scottsdale Stadium, Sloan Park, Salt River Fields, or Fall Stars Weekend.

This area provides the best access to nightlife, restaurants, and shopping between games.

West Valley

Best for Stadium Access

Choose Peoria, Glendale, or Surprise for convenient access to Peoria Sports Complex, Camelback Ranch, Surprise Stadium, and the Goodyear tripleheader.

Dining and entertainment districts include P83 in Peoria, Westgate in Glendale, and Village at Prasada in Surprise.

Central Phoenix is the most practical choice for fans visiting stadiums on both sides of the Valley.

Downtown, Midtown, Uptown, and the Biltmore area provide freeway access and an average drive of approximately 35 minutes across the stadium circuit, depending on traffic.
