Downtown Glendale Arts & Culture Fest is back—and bigger than ever. On Saturday, January 31, 2026, the Glendale Civic Center Plaza transforms into a full-day celebration where the heartbeat of Arizona’s creativity meets the roar of classic engines. Stroll through a dazzling showcase of vintage automobiles in a judged car show spanning more than 20 categories, indulge in bold barbecue flavors from local masters, sip craft beer and wine, and groove to a lineup of live music that crescendos with a headliner performance at 3:30 p.m.
At Art State Arizona, we believe art is everywhere—woven into cars, music, food, murals, and the rhythm of our communities. This festival brings that vision to life, turning the streets of Glendale into a living canvas of culture. With family activities, artisan vendors, interactive experiences, and local businesses joining in the fun, the event is more than a festival—it’s a movement celebrating how creativity connects us all. Admission is free, making this an inclusive and epic way to kick off the new year.
