Prescott is a hub for artisans and craft lovers alike. The city hosts year-round craft shows that highlight the talents of local artists. From pottery and jewelry to woodworking and textiles, you’ll find one-of-a-kind handcrafted items at every turn.

Gambling:
For a little excitement, Prescott’s Bucky’s and Yavapai Casinos provide a thrilling gaming experience. Try your luck on the slots or enjoy a game of Blackjack, Texas Hold’em, Craps, or Roulette! And if you visit, be sure to say “Hi” to Louie for me!

Surrounded by stunning landscapes, Prescott is an outdoor lover’s paradise. Hit the trails and explore the beauty of the Prescott National Forest, or hike through the dramatic Granite Dells with its impressive boulder formations. For a more challenging trek, Thumb Butte offers breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and valleys.
