Set against the backdrop of one of Tucson’s most iconic landmarks, the event offers a special opportunity to honor America’s independence while celebrating the Inn’s legacy. Founded by Arizona's first congresswoman, Isabella Greenway, the Arizona Inn was established in 1930 as a "sanctuary of grace in the Sonoran Desert." Today the iconic Tucson landmark continues to honor its history with a festive evening of exceptional food, live music, and family-friendly fun on the Inn's beautiful main lawn.
