Spring Fountain Festival of Fine Arts & Crafts

From February 20 through February 22, 2026, Fountain Hills will once again host one of its most iconic and highly anticipated events, the Fountain Festival of Fine Arts and Crafts. This long-standing tradition has been a cornerstone of the community for more than 50 years, drawing thousands of visitors from across the country and around the world to experience art, culture, and the beauty of the desert all in one place.

What began in 1974 with just 60 vendors has grown into a nationally recognized festival featuring more than 500 artists and artisans each spring and fall. Guests can explore an incredible variety of artwork across every medium, from paintings and sculptures to handmade goods, jewelry, home décor, gourmet treats, and unique gifts available at a wide range of price points. Whether you are a collector, a casual shopper, or simply looking for a fun outing, there is truly something for everyone.

The festival takes place at Fountain Park, home to one of the largest fountains in the world, creating a stunning backdrop for the event. Visitors can enjoy live music throughout the weekend, relax on the grass in the Arizona sunshine, and sample food and drinks from a diverse lineup of vendors and food trucks offering options for every taste.

You can spend the entire weekend soaking in the atmosphere or plan a day trip with family and friends to experience this vibrant celebration of art and community. It’s more than just a festival. It’s a chance to connect, explore, and enjoy one of Fountain Hills’ most beloved traditions.
