The annual Local First Arizona “Certified Local Fall Festival” is an event for EVERYONE. Young, old, rich, poor, smart and smarter…

The Certified Local Fall Festival is all day family friendly fun for all ages.

Thousands will flock to Portland Parkway near the light rail station at Central and Roosevelt to enjoy some of the Valley’s best food, live music, fun and games, unique shopping, huge local beer and wine garden and the chance to learn more about the awesome “local movement” that is so important to our cities and our state.

AWESOME LOCATION! The annual Certified Local Fall Festival is at Portland Parkway in Downtown Phoenix, right next to the Roosevelt/Central light rail station! See our light rail map below to get there, the easy way.
