Tempe Beach Park – Tempe, Arizona Tickets 

Discover the Iconic Tempe Beach Park 

Situated on the banks of the Salt River and adjacent to the shimmering waters of Tempe Town Lake, Tempe Beach Park is one of the most dynamic outdoor venues in Arizona. Spanning 25 acres, this waterfront park in the heart of Tempe blends recreational beauty with entertainment excellence, making it a premier destination for concerts, festivals, cultural gatherings, and sporting events throughout the year. 

Originally founded in the 1930s as a public swimming beach and community space, Tempe Beach Park has evolved into a major hub for the city’s cultural and musical heartbeat. The park underwent a major revitalization in the early 2000s with the construction of Tempe Town Lake, transforming the space into a year-round hotspot for events and activities. Today, it hosts some of Arizona’s biggest festivals, including the Innings Festival, Four Peaks Oktoberfest, and various charity walks, outdoor movie nights, and fitness events. 

The park’s open-air setting, proximity to downtown Tempe, and scenic desert lake views make it an unforgettable backdrop for live music, fireworks displays, food and drink festivals, and large-scale gatherings. Whether you’re dancing to a national headliner under the stars or enjoying local eats at a daytime market, Tempe Beach Park offers something for every type of eventgoer.
