The Ostrich Festival, held annually at Tumbleweed Park in Chandler, Arizona, draws visitors from all over the state. This event features an old-fashioned community parade, live ostrich races, thrill rides and a chance to sample culinary delights such as Ostrich Burgers, Ostrich Jerky and fresh Emu Eggs.

For those who love to listen to outdoor music on summer evenings, the amphitheater in Freestone Park is a natural gathering place. Here you'll find regular free concerts, and even when it's quiet, it's a lovely place to sit and enjoy a picnic.
