Rawhide Western Town & Event Center is metro Phoenix’s premier special event destination, featuring an authentic replica of an 1880s Western town plus an adjoining Event Center and multi-use soccer stadium. Spanning over 160 acres of Sonoran Desert on the Gila River Indian Community, it offers 18+ unique and versatile venues for concerts, festivals, rodeos, banquets, and private/public events accommodating 10 to 10,000 guests.
Rawhide’s 48,000 sq. ft. pavilion offers event space that can house your largest function, trade show, concert, banquet, or party. This fully enclosed area has oversized garage doors for easy flow to our Sonoran Lawn, as well as easy load-in and load-out access for events.
