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.

The Valley’s elite guard gated communities are located in the most scenic and expensive neighborhoods in the state. Guards phone residents before admitting visitors, and service workers enter only at scheduled times. Guests receive a one day restricted visitor’s permit that must be displayed on their vehicle.
