Tempe Festival of the Arts
December 5-7, 2025
Friday & Saturday 10AM – 5:30PM | Sunday 10AM – 4:30PM
Twice a year, Downtown Tempe hosts one of the Southwest’s most iconic art festivals. With a legacy of over 50 years, the Tempe Festival of the Arts draws thousands each spring and fall to experience art in every form — all in the heart of Mill Avenue.
More than 300 artist booths fill the streets with juried work ranging from ceramics and jewelry to photography and woodwork. Guests can explore one-of-a-kind pieces, meet the artists, and discover new perspectives around every corner.
The festival also features live music, street performers, wine and beer gardens, local food vendors, a Kids Block with hands-on activities, and a live chalk art competition. Whether you're here to browse or spend the day, the Tempe Festival of the Arts offers something for all ages and interests.
This is a Cash Free event.
