Casino Del Sol Marks 32 Years with Weeklong Celebration in Southern Arizona
TUCSON, AZ — On July 3rd Casino Del Sol will mark its anniversary as an entertainment destination for 32 years. This July, Casino Del Sol invites all of Southern Arizona to celebrate that legacy with a week of events that reflect everything the resort stands for: world-class entertainment, genuine community welcome, and pride in a tradition built from the ground up.
What began in 1982 as a bingo hall has grown into Southern Arizona’s premier integrated resort and this anniversary celebration is a fitting tribute to that journey.
HERE’S WHAT’S HAPPENING:
Free Fireworks Spectacular — July 3, 2026, 8:15 PM
Casino Del Sol lights up the Tucson sky with its signature free, public fireworks display. Open to the entire community, this annual tradition is Casino Del Sol’s gift to Southern Arizona: a brilliant, sky-high celebration of shared history and bright horizons ahead.
Dru Hill Live in Concert — Friday, July 10, 2026, 8:00 PM
The R&B icons behind “In My Bed,” “Beautiful Mess,” and “Never Make a Promise” bring their smooth harmonies and timeless catalog to the open-air AVA Amphitheater for a night that Southern Arizona will not soon forget. Dru Hill defined a generation of R&B — and the AVA Amphitheater stage is ready to honor that legacy under the desert stars.
