Frontdoors Five: Best Ways to Celebrate Spring in Phoenix

Scottsdale Culinary Festival

After the long and not so cold winter, it’s finally starting to feel like spring here in Phoenix, and that’s reason enough for us to celebrate. Here are our top five ways to take advantage of the warmer weather this season.
1. Enjoy craft cocktails on a patio.
If there’s anything us Phoenicians enjoy, it’s a craft cocktail, and the only thing more fun than drinking inside of a bar is drinking on a patio. Some of our favorite patio spots are Postino, El Chorro and Culinary Dropout.
2. Take a hike.
Exercise, socializing and enjoying the great outdoors all at once — what could be better? There are great hiking spots across the Valley, but we recommend Tom’s Thumb, Camelback Mountain and Papago Park.
3. See a spring training game.
This one’s a bit obvious, but it’s a critical part of Phoenix culture, so we had to mention it. Games are still running across the Valley through the end of the month, so you still have plenty of time to get your baseball (and beer) fix.
4. Head to a festival.
Whether you’re into food, music or medieval times, there’s probably a festival happening that suits your interests this season. We’re most looking forward to Innings Festival, the Scottsdale Culinary Festival and the Nirvana Food and Wine Festival.
5. Take a road trip.
If 80 degrees is still a bit too warm for you, this is a great time to take a road trip and check out any of our fun, neighboring cities like Sedona, Prescott or Payson.
