1. Rock and Roll Under the Stars
What’s better than a summer rock and roll concert by the pool and under the stars! The Tedeschi Trucks Band is performing at The Pool at Talking Stick Resort on Friday, September 2.

Get tickets online starting at $25, or go to the Talking Stick casino box office on the day of the show.
2. Recover in Mid-Century Modern Style
At the Hotel Valley Ho, summer Sundays are made for brunch, live music and lounging by the pool. The on-site restaurant Café ZuZu offers brunch featuring build your Bloody Mary or mimosa bar until 2:30 pm, then half-off bottles of wine after 3:00 pm. A different local band is slated to play every Sunday from 11:00 am to 2:00 pm. And here, summer runs through September 25.
