Tourist Information

We are excited to host you in Tempe. The conference will be held at Arizona State University, which blends directly into the vibrant downtown and Mill Avenue district. This location is exceptionally walkable, making it easy to get around and explore the energetic atmosphere of the area.

When you have free time, you'll find the neighborhood is packed with a dense concentration of local coffee shops, diverse restaurants, and casual bars. There are also accessible outdoor activities nearby. Tempe Town Lake, just north of the campus, features several miles of waterfront paths for walking or running. For a quick hike and a clear view over the campus and city, you can climb the popular "A" Mountain (Hayden Butte).

Dining

Downtown Tempe's dining scene caters to every craving, from a quick morning coffee to a full evening out. Kickstart your day with a popular brunch at spots like Daily Jam or Snooze an AM Eatery for creative pancakes and classics, or grab an American-European-inspired dish at Foch Café & Bistro. For lunch and dinner, the area is defined by vibrant patios and brewpubs; enjoy the lively, game-filled atmospheres at Culinary Dropout at The Yard and Pedal Haus Brewery, grab a craft beer near the lake at Hundred Mile Brewing, or settle into the iconic Irish pub vibe at Casey Moore’s Oyster House. If you're in the mood for Italian, Caffe Boa offers handmade pastas, while Postino Annex and Sauce Pizza & Wine provide perfect settings for wine and casual bites. The diverse options also include healthy, quick fare from Original ChopShop and Pita Jungle, unique concepts like the wood-fired cooking at Filthy Animal and the art-inspired tacos at Taco Chelo, or even a fun night playing board games while you eat at Snakes & Lattes.
