Register an Event

We want everybody to help celebrate! If you would like to add your event to our Tucson's Birthday calendar, complete and submit the simple form below. We'd like to make everyone else aware of it!

There are only a couple of requirements:

  • The event needs to center on an aspect of Tucson's unique history, environment or diverse culture.
  • It must be open to the public, but it does not need to be free.
  • Because of our not-for-profit status, we cannot promote a sale or discounts at your for-profit business. However, businesses have found that hosting a Tucson's Birthday event can increase traffic to the store!

We may call or e-mail you for more information or verification, and then we'll not only publish your event on the Tucson's Birthday website... we'll include it in our updates to Tucson-area media!

Our History in Layers

This video illustrates Tucson downtown, today, then what it may have looked like in the early presidio era, then what it might have looked like as a pit house village before the presidio was established. The base of an ancient pit house has been excavated for public interpretation within the reconstructed walls of the Presidio at the corner of Washington and Church Streets.

La Dona del Pueblo: Cele Peterson



As we embark on our sixth Tucson's Birthday celebration, it's fun to recall that it started out as a CELEbration, Cele's idea of a festival about all the reasons we love living in Tucson. It's possible no one loved it more than she, and Tucson loved her back. Many thanks to Michael McNulty for this amazing footage of Cele telling her stories and celebrating her own 100th birthday. See how many faces you recognize.
