Rawhide Western Town Reviews

Very disappointed thought there would be more to see. Didn't even stay long enough to eat dinner at the steak house

Loved the scenery but its pricey. Paid to park then tickets,food and events.

We had our Christmas party at raw hide. The food service staff has no clue of what they re doing .They are Very unorganized.
This was the worst experience ever. We should have stayed home and ate top ramen. The wait was over 2 hours for our food and when we got it the food wasn t what was Ordered.
I was embarrassed that I waited so long with out walking out . eating at McDonald s would have been a better choice.
This place needs to go away like the Wild West!

Don't waste your money l paid for a wrist band for four nothing was open the only thing we Saw was the roughrider's , after that we went to the steakhouse omg we returned all the food .food was very poor quality.i would never take my family again.you will be very disappointed if u do.chicken wings were raw.ribs were hard as a rock . at least the waiter was very pleasant ,and they didn't charge us for two meals,but then again I wouldn't feed that to my dog's

Went to lights of the world. Was amazing! Little expensive for a bigger family but well worth it. Highly recommend

A great meal followed by a fun show. A real party atmosphere. A great way to spend an evening with friends.

Very loud and noise events.you guys need a sound engendered stages to avoid the noise all over ahwatukee .

Was here for a private event and it was absolutely amazing!

Great place to go for different events that I've been to.

Alot of fun love the old Western town. The candy shop has some very unique old time candy. Definitely a good place to go if you love the old west.

The great place for walking. Food and entertainment. Ideal for spend quality time with family and friends

It depends on what you are looking for but if you know you will find it acceptable

Went for a gymnastics meet... Good facility, clean restrooms

I love Rawhide. It makes my heart happy. I wish they would go back on groupon because we literally went every weekend. The food is good, the steak house has live music. You can ride a mechanical bull, ride trains, climb rock walls, pan for gold etc. The lights were beautiful. The snow was bubbles and it was a lot of fun! Santa was there and pictures were very affordable. You should definitely go.

great concert venue. spacious and plenty of parking.

Rawhide is a good place for a concert if the crowd will be small enough to take advantage of the layout. I had the opportunity to visit the night Post Malone came so the venue was I'll prepared to handle a crowd of that size. The parking distribution of incoming cars was pretty disorganized and they did an average job of leading people in which direction to get wristbands or giving non-vip customers access to areas in the front. I'd go back if another decent artist was there

Been going to Rawhide since I was a kid I used to be in North Scottsdale than they actually moved the whole Facility South towards Chandler. Very dusty so be prepared for that I mean it's a western town that comes with the territory LOL. Burro rides petting zoo when I went into bit sad but my kid was still excited. Course everyone's always nice there's a mechanical bull at the entrance and a lot of the adults go there for the steakhouse and barbecue pricey so call ahead to check if budget is a concern. I have Western shows typical of places like this the kids love it gift shop to look and buy Western things.

Well for one thing its not an event management company its a venue that has a staff that works for them when other companys book their venue. They also like say no to most companies due to a contract they have with another company and if they do say yes they offer the muddy rodeo which is unfair business practices.

Unbelievably wonderful staff great food and service so many amenities has a very authentic feel!

Do yourself a favor and skip this place, service in the restaurant is terrible, takes forever to get food, even when they are not busy

Went there for the Phoenix Light Rave, had a BLAST!!!??

Love the look and feel they created here! Was a blast of fun!

Went to a reggae show here. Wasn't a bad venue. Bathrooms where decent.

Best place for special occasions. We made reservations 11 months in advance for Thanksgiving and we'll worth it!

Excellent place to grab great food, great drinks and amazing entertainment. Fun for all ages!

Nice Event Center...check out there site for Event List and Dates.

This place is not what I expected when attending a concert. It was too hot. Generic bars set up with overpriced drinks. I understand that this was an all ages concert but I didn't want to enjoy my alcohol with grade schoolers. Just not an ideal place to hold a concert in the Summer in Arizona.

Attended the Pot of Gold festival here. The was so much dust in the air that I had major breathing issues the next day.

First time to rawhide...haha.
Great lites. About it.

Very nice venue. Very friendly staff. Relaxed environment!

Huge outdoor event space. Yet dust (or mud if it rains) is always an issue. Entry into large events is always slow due to setup.

A very good experience, a realistic western town complete with choreographed dramas.

We were expecting to experience the bull riding, gun fights, blacksmith shop and all that other stuff on their website and trip advisor. It noted that Rawhide was closed for a few weeks in the summer - should be Ok, this is January. But.... it was closed.

Went for the Sangria festival which is fun, but all attractions seem like they nickel and dime you. Wrist band of everything is $15 but it isnt clearly explained anywhere about it. The Mothers day brunch was so-so and for the money I would have preferred to go elsewhere. I wont go back for the food...but maybe special events.

Event was fun but 10$ for parking on top of entry fees. We will not partake in the run next year if still at this location.

I dropped some customers off here recently but I have always enjoyed Rawhide.

We all had a blast! Thank you for being awesome Joyce Smith!!!

The show I saw here was great but the traffic sucks and it'll take you a few hours to go home after an event with no where to wait for the traffic to clear.

This was a lot of fun, I was really impressed. We didn't spend as much as I expected, which was nice. All the staff were funny and helpful.

Great venue for a crazy loud show. Mostly professional security, just 1 asshat with a chip on his shoulder.

great place to have your Children to learn bit odd wild south west

There was very few people there. Went to the Billy the Kid Show it was o.k. I really would not go back just not enough to do unless you want to keep taking money out of your pocket.

Lots of fun Easter Sunday. We were RVING and were surprised at all the effort put in by staff to make you feel right at home, is Florida.

This place was so much fun! My toddler loved it. They have fun shows including magic shows. Petting zoos, gold panning and train rides. We will definitely be going back!

Rawhide is a "western town" and event venue south of Phoenix. It has a large indoor barn and an even larger lawn area that has been used for most events that I've attended here.

The facilities are pretty "bare bones" here. Dirt parking lots. Bathrooms only for the inside venue. No concessions or anything like that, besides the tents brought in by vendors. Parking and exiting can be difficult since basically everyone in the valley must enter and exit from one direction. The traffic can get backed up for an hour at the end of an event. There's no public transit here or businesses like stores or restaurants for at least a mile in any direction.

Most of the events that I've been to here have been fairly well executed. Lucky Man Productions has sponsored most, and they are great at what they do. Events are definitely more fun when the weather's nice. Just about any staff you'll see here are contractors, so it's hard to figure them into a review of the place.

Fun western themed town. With fun things for the kids to do. Great around Christmas time.

The parking situation for the Lights of the World was not good. The lines were long, the organization seemed lacking, and $10 to park for this thing was a rip-off. People pay that much to park for a proper sports venue, not a traveling carnival. I think if they want to pull this off again in the future, they'll need to think ahead and organize the parking situation, vendors, and port-s-potty situation a bit better.

Waited for 20min no one ever came to get our order... won't be back...

Went to a pod concert. It was a lot of fun and great seeing security making sure everyone had masks on

Their rideshare methods are very poor. They need better planning and coordinating for their events.

I'm absolutely shocked by the lack of human decency at this establishment. Today we had reservations and planned to attend with our large party. However I woke up with two very sick children this morning. Trying to be considerate to everyone attending myself, my husband, and our two children decided not to attend with the rest of our party. I still had to drive a relative there, and I had high hopes they might let me still pay for my spot then get a to go box of JUST the basics. But NO. Not even a care, then seated the rest of the party with no remorse. So I drive home broken hearted because I had no Thanksgiving food for my family since we had planned to go out. Sadly this wasn't even the worst of it. I later learned from the rest of the family that they had to pay $70!? For our seats!!!! My kids were sick, I showed up in PERSON trying to find an alternative in this situation, got no help from the people to try and figure something out and then this.

I will make sure to let EVERYONE I know not to waste their money at a place that couldn't even care about a customer in a completely uncontrollable situation.

Nice little Western area. Large tented area and great xerascaping. Nice roads.

The steakhouse is amazing. Make sure to share, one dinner will definitely feed two people.

I loved it. The kids loved it. The train was the best part. Buy your souvenirs and have a wonderful time.

This place USED TO BE FUN.....They dont do the Doom town in Oct. and nobody answers the phone. Service in restaurant is sooooo long and food quality has gone way down hill...They use to have a good thing going,, but it will soon be out of business because they JUST DONT CARE ABOUT CUSTOMERS ANYMORE

What a cool ambiance! I just wish there was more to do!

Lots of fun, the actors performed well. The petting zoo was disappointing, but possibly due to a late hour? Animals have bed times too I suppose.

New year's Eve rave party... 3 stages of ravers and scantly clad women..
