Step back in time to the days of King Arthur and enjoy what’s billed as the ‘greatest party since Camelot’ at the Arizona Renaissance Faire. This medieval fantasy park features a 12-stage theatre, an outdoor circus, daily jousting tournaments and an incredible variety of foods and arts and crafts. The Faire typically runs from February through March and is conveniently located just east of Apache Junction on US Highway 60.

Master planned gated communities are found through out greater Phoenix. Some of the most elaborate developments were designed to keep residents at home. Their amenities include entertainment venues, classes, personal services and restaurants. A number of them regularly host social events for homeowners.
