Make Downtown Your Home Base
The festival moves through Downtown Tucson, with TENWEST HQ at The Grand and programming, meals, networking and special events happening at venues throughout the surrounding area.
Our biggest travel tip: Stay Downtown if you can.
You’ll be able to walk or take the free Sun Link Streetcar between many TENWEST experiences, restaurants, bars and gathering places and spend less of your festival figuring out where to park.
Most core TENWEST venues are just a few minutes apart on foot. Build in about 5–10 minutes between sessions to move between venues, say hello to someone you know and experience Downtown along the way.
