Get ready for a Saturday morning filled with live music, community bonding and fun in the park! This year’s Neighborhood Celebration Event at Kiwanis Park Fiesta Ramadas. You’re invited to come connect with your community over free coffee and breakfast refreshments, yard games, free event t-shirts (while supplies last) and a lively, informal awards celebration. 

This year community members can enjoy free Brick Road Coffee, breakfast items, live music by Bohemian Insurgence and shopping with local vendors like Uplighten Life (mindfulness and destress products), Naked Fig Soap (handmade soaps), Map Stand (local map art) and Voyce Threads (socks for a cause). Children are welcome to play yard games that are provided by Tempe’s Play Mobile.

The celebration is free to attend and the whole community is invited. Tempe’s Mayor and City Council, small businesses, local organizations, boards and commission members, residents and volunteers will also be present. Tempe thanks Salt River Project, Brick Road Coffee and local vendors for their continued support of this event.

“Each year, Tempe community members come out in droves to laugh, learn and connect at the park,” Mayor Corey Woods said. “Compassionate, connected and uniquely Tempe neighborhoods are sources of comfort, strength and beauty for the residents who live in them. The Neighborhood Celebration is a chance to honor and build on Tempe’s strong community bonds. I look forward to seeing everyone there.”

In addition to community connection, this event also celebrates those who go above and beyond to serve the Tempe community. Earlier this year, Tempe asked residents to nominate their neighbors for awards. Award possibilities include honors for individuals, neighborhoods, spaces, events or initiatives related to community-building, arts and culture, water conservation and sustainability. 

Winners will be recognized at the event along with Dolores Huerta Scholarship recipients.?

When: Saturday, April 5, 2025 from 9 to 11 a.m.

Where: Kiwanis Park Fiesta Ramadas, 5711 S. All-America Way.
