    I came here for the Garmin Tucson Marathon race expo. This was the venue used for the event. It was very spacious, clean, and looked to be well-maintained. I was staying at a nearby hotel so I walked over. It looked like parking was paid via online as the parking attendant booth was unmanned and there were no self-pay kiosks.

    Came here for Tucson Symphony Orchestra center and appreciate the staff is always so helpful and they have security at the entrance. The will call staff is always super nice and helpful and patient. I like the bar and coffee options they have added inside the venue. We had a great time the last time we were here.

    Been to three events here this year. Food has been solid, staff amazing and events ran smoothly. Very clean and great location near downtown makes it a great place for large events.

    My friends and I had an amazing time at Tucson Convention Center. Ana Gabriel was amazing.

    Had a great time at the Tucson Sugar Skulls First Responders and Military Appreciation Night. They have updated seats since my last visit, QR code parking lots are a plus as long as you have a smart phone. Staff are very helpful. Look forward to the next time we can visit. Good lighting. Easy access. Fun time!

    As far as hockey games go, it's AWESOME. It seats roughly 6500, so it's on the "intimate" side of things. It's also in a horseshoe configuration, which is a nice touch (unless you like sitting behind the goal (I don't). It would be a solid 5 stars if the seats were a little bigger.

    The Tucson Convention Center is a great venue for an expo or event. I visited for a home show, and I was impressed by the amount of vendors and lay out of the home show. This is a great venue for any large event.

    Obviously this place doesn't know how to run an event. The doors were to be opened at 6 and over 30 minutes later people are still waiting in 100+ degree weather. People are starting to go into heat stroke but the venue won't open the doors to help people. I would never suggest attending a concert here. Horribly run.

    I have great memories here when coming to the Gem show! Its located in the heart of Tucson perfect for going out to the town after an event.

    Roadrunner Red from Dillinger Brewing Co on tap. This is a Tucson brewery so the place supports local! Great beer!

    The first time I was here was for a hockey game. The Tucson Roadrunners are really fun to watch and live hockey is cool. But more importantly I went on $1 hot dog night and it was the best night of my life. Usually hot dogs here are over five bucks. There was even a sign that said "Limit four hot dogs per transaction" so fat idiots like me wouldn't hold it the line. I maxed out my per-transaction dog limit and it was glorious. The second time I showed up I decided to check out the other food options. There are several small carts set up that each have different types of food. I picked up a tray of tacos from one spot and then proceeded to the big concessions stand to get a big thing of nachos covered in meat. There was another cart that had sliders but I'll have to wait till next time to check that out because even I was too fat to keep going. Their beer selection isn't good save for the fact that they pour Dillinger Brewing Company's Roadrunner Red Ale. It's the only craft and only local beer option available but hey, they could just serve Bud Light and get away with it. So I'm really happy they make an effort to support local. There's a big parking lot and tons of street parking all around the area if you're willing to walk a little. I'm not even a sports fan but hockey, beer and food go really well together.

    See all

    I attended a Tucson Roadrunners hockey game at the TCC Arena last night. It was fun, though a bit loud.

    I assume it is Tucson Arena for shows and concerts and games but Convention Center for expos and such.

You can totally adapt venue with any theme you have in mind. Nice open space. The only thing I noticed was one restroom which can be a problem. I didn't really do a total walk through to check out space in back. So all I can hope is there is another one. Definitely look into this space, start looking at food vendors, go talk with Barrio brewery about craft beers, and go throw yourself a great get-together!

They have everything you can think of from A/V Equipment is heavy, Hi-Speed Internet,, power point/hdmi connectors, TVs, projector screens, a PA system, furniture and more. There isn't a detail that gets missed. And most importantly, working with Erin (Marketing/Events Manager) is a true joy! She treats your event just as her own. She's incredibly knowledgeable, organized, enthusiastic and one thousand percent committed to making your event perfect! If you're searching for a venue for anything from a wedding reception to corporate event, workshop, etc. Railyard fits the bill! I worked with Erin on a special event and the entire process was fun and stress free. In addition to be a venue, Rail Yard also offers smaller meeting spaces that fit individual needs to small groups. You can rent for the day or lease a workspace from them. Everything is top quality and really beautiful. They also a have a kitchen with coffee and snacks! If I was going to rent an office space, I'd absolutely have one here! It's a beautiful setting with lovely people!

    It was a holiday winter wonderland gathering at the historic Stillwell House and Garden downtown…read moreTucson Arizona on an early December 2025 weekday evening . With great care driving during 5 pm rush hour traffic congestion entering the event venue the valet parking offered made the arrival and limited parking much easier . I chose to attend to view the historic 1901 venue Stillwell House and Garden to experience with great anticipation snd high expectations as seen and read in many positive Yelp reviews. Our Tucson Yelp GM Isabella J. has touted this venue as one of her favorites which I have not visited before and lived up to said expectations in ambiance , efficiency , and enjoyment. Just a block south of Charro Steak and del Rey Seafood on south 5th avenue on the corner lies this large party venue . Not surprising the venue is owned and part of the large and local Si Charro group growing empire of restaurants in greater Tucson Arizona and beyond. Entering the large center courtyard the Stillwell house was highly decorated and lite up tastefully as a December Holiday party with over a hundred people celebrating a yearly party for the Presidio Group. began in the bar area. Hors d'oeuvres of meatballs & mini chimichangas in one area and large guacamole building table all fully staffed and foods presented colorfully by the Si Charro kitchen on site. In another corner by the bar had hot Mexican chocolate and cafe de ola . And in another corner was a huge cookie table with gingerbread houses and a large gingerbread cookie character anchoring the table filled with sweets . I was impressed with the large comfortable space accommodating this somewhat large crowd very comfortably . The large staff fully attended to the guests every need . After approximately an hour the gathering was surprisingly moved to the north side two story building adjacent to the the patio for a buffet dinner with festive green corn tamales , chicken mole , & prime rib with a bean medley, rice , tortillas , & tossed salad again fully staffed with friendly and efficient servers . Impressive were the seasonal colors and character added to all the food presented to celebrate and garnish the food for the winter solstice holiday season . The green corn tamales and chicken mole were especially tasty as was all the food presented. Following dinner the guests moved back to the patio and bar areas for the cookie table , Mexican hot chocolate & cafe de la ola awaiting a raffle of prizes patrons hoped to win. . Everyone was a winner with small bags of cookies professionally personalized the Presido Group Wealth Management logo for everyone to take home . I can now see why this is a popular wedding & other event venue in this historic large setting . The staff , food , decor ,and setting makes such events quite memorable. I mainly came to make a short visit to experience the venue, during the event my nfl football team the Lions where playing an important Thursday night game with playoff implications. Although I asked in advance if a tv was avaiable only an extremely small tv was hidden and off in the top corner of the bar. If wanted I could follow the game on my phone , but I did not . The food,drink," business friends , & festive historic setting enticed me to stay longer for most of the 2.5 hour early evening event rather than leaving early as pre planned . I couldn't resist staying for the dinner portion catered by Si Charro on site and throughly enjoyed the whole event & Stillwell House and Garden experience. It's now obvious why this is a most popular event location for your complete party venue needs. A true historic local gem" in downtown Tucson. I would consider using Uber or Lyft transportation Uber again at that busy time downtown . I'm told there's a parking garage nearby , the on street parking was full , but the valet parking made arrival much easier,thank you. ( I was told the Stillwell House & Garden has been under the same family ownership since 1901 but cannot confirm they fact ) That said historic 1901 historic Stillwell House and Garden experience is another " feather in cap " so to speak for our downtown city of gastronomy & Si Charro groups ever growing and expanding culinary & social experience.

They also had tamale dinner and vendors and photos with Santa that were available for the public. The decor here was so beautiful. I loved that we get to do these events to network and get to know other yelpers.
