Visitor’s Guide to the Arizona Bowl
Here is your complete list of where to stay, what to do after the game, and surrounding attractions.
You can count on two things for the December 28th, 2024 Arizona Bowl:
- If you are here to support your team, the weather here will be MUCH better than where you're coming from.
- If you're travelling such a distance, you might as well stay a while and enjoy the outdoor and indoor things to do.
May we suggest staying in Marana where you can avoid the crowds, but still have easy access to Interstate 10 to get to the game?
Where to Stay in Marana
Enjoy your time in Tucson from the comfort of centrally located hotel accommodations in Marana, all within 20 minutes of Arizona Stadium. Marana is contiguous with Tucson (to the north) and is close to Saguaro National Park West, Old Tucson, and has many things to do, such as Topgolf Marana, craft breweries, and Tucson Premium Outlets at Marana Center.
Hotels along the I-10 Freeway at Cortaro Road are located in a suburban family neighborhood surrounded by new shopping and locally-owned restaurants. This is a perfect home base area. With easy access the I-10, Arizona Stadium is only 20 minutes away, Topgolf Marana just 10 minutes away (on the way to Arizona Stadium).
