As the smell of barbecue and the sound of fireworks become the unofficial soundtracks of our lives this weekend, folks in the Valley have no shortage of places to get their Fourth of July celebration on. And truly, what pairs better with the rockets' red glare than also maximizing your holiday budget with some deals around town? According to a report from ABC15, The Mexicano is rocking this Independence Day with ‘All-You-Can-Eat Taco Thursdays’ – endless tacos for just $8.88 per person, because nothing says 'America' like stuffing your face without emptying your wallet.
For those aiming to keep it chill, Salad and Go is offering Caesar salads for just $4 on National Caesar Salad Day, which, conveniently, falls on July 4. "Roaring Fork will be offering their annual Dinner on Us" the ABC15 report states, giving patrons a buy one entrée, get the second one free promotion the evening of July 4. And because pets are our family too, Dr. Kelly’s Surgical Unit is offering free pet microchips before the fireworks start startling our furry friends.
Moving onto festivities that blend luxury with patriotism, we have resorts across Arizona pulling out all the stops. According to AZ Big Media, the Sanctuary Camelback Mountain Resort & Spa is amping up the glam with 'Red, White and Rosé', a poolside bash featuring frosé and sangria specials. Not to be outdone, the JW Marriott Scottsdale Camelback Inn Resort & Spa has an array of summer-inspired activities lined up for the whole weekend, while Sheraton Grand at Wild Horse Pass dazzles with fireworks, and mountain shadows indulge guests with sunset yoga and a rooftop meditation session.
There's even more to the holiday weekend than poolside lounging and fireworks though—Food and drink specials are aplenty. Twin Peaks delivers the classic combo of cold beers and hearty food, with AZ Big Media detailing that the place is primed for Fourth of July revelers. And if your ideal Independence Day includes live DJ sets and specialty cocktails, then it's worth checking out Hotel Valley Ho's poolside offerings, which feature the tantalizing 'Firecracker' cocktail.
Of course, as any self-respecting Arizonian would tell you, the Fourth isn't just about where you spend it, but what you spend it on. So gather round the fireworks, tune into the festive vibe, and don't forget to pair your patriotic pride with a hearty side of savings and luxury offerings that dot the valley. Whether you're going big at a luxury resort or keeping it casual with tacos and a firework show, there's no wrong way to red, white, and blue this weekend.
