Phoenix

Phoenix - It's New, It's Exciting and It's Revitalized

If you’ve been to Phoenix before, you really haven’t been to the NEW Phoenix! From the brand new-from-the-ground-up Convention Center and Sheraton Downtown Phoenix Hotel, the downtown area has exploded with new development. Enjoy the many new attractions, entertainment venues and restaurants that have changed the skyline and streets of downtown Phoenix.

 

Coming before or staying for a few days after? Phoenix and the surrounding areas have much to offer. Click HERE to visit the Greater Phoenix Convention & Visitors Bureau special website for the 2009 Cattle Industry Annual Convention.

 


Bring the Entire Family!

Come in early or stay for a few days after…Phoenix and the surrounding area have much to offer. Children accompanied by an adult are welcome in the NCBA Trade Show, on the visitor tours and special ticketed events offering a child’s meal pricing. Upon arriving in Phoenix, visitors quickly discover a few of the hallmarks that make this region a premier destination - near-perfect weather, ease of transportation and genuine hospitality.

 

The average high in Phoenix in January is 66 degrees and with more than 325 days of sunshine per year, smiles are wide and spirits are high. From the moment you touch down at Sky Harbor International Airport, the outdoors beckons the adventurer in you. Three major mountains buttress Phoenix, providing visitors an outlet for every grade of outdoor pursuit. And because the Sonoran Desert is one of the most ecologically diverse deserts in the world, explorers will discover an extraordinary range of plant and animal life that varies with changes in elevation and climate. Phoenix, which covers 514 square miles, is the fifth-largest city in the country with a population of more than 1.42 million people.
