Open NOW is World of Illumination in Tempe and Glendale! Immerse yourself in a perfectly synchronized light show, set to music, all from the comfort of your vehicle! Last week we experienced both locations on opening nights to kick off the holiday season. This was our first time personally visiting any World of Illumination show and the kids loved it, especially the tunnels. Driving at a slow 3-5mph, we had all the windows down and the moon roof open to soak in the excitement. It’s hard to not be impressed by 1 million lights!! [h.osted] This is truly the best drive through synchronized light show you’ll find in Phoenix, a great alternative to events like Zoolights, especially if you family members with mobility concerns. The Tempe location is at Diablo Stadium (2200 W Alameda Dr, Tempe, 85282), with the theme Cosmic Sleighride. The Glendale location is at Desert Diamond Casino (9431 W Northern Ave, Glendale, 85305) with the theme Reindeer Road. You can’t go wrong with either! Pick the closest, load up the car with family or friends, and get in the Christmas spirit. @worldofillumination Tickets are per vehicle, operating Tuesday through Sunday, 6:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., rain or shine. NOW through December 31, 2023. Prices range from $39.99 to $49.99 on weekends. Note that on weekends and closer to Christmas, you may have a wait to enter the drive thru experience. 🎄Use Promo Code WOl2023 for a 15% discount on weekday tickets from Nov 15 to Dec 14, 2023! 🎄

Last night, Oct 16, 2020 was our first visit to this place in spite of hearing about it a lot of times already. The place is conveniently located close to Cabela's @ 94th Ave. in Glendale, Az. Am impressed by how staffs are following the protocol re: health safety, from the elevator, where there is a particular operator assigned (so as not too many hands touching those buttons you know ) to proper social distancing (where only 4 people are allowed to take the elevator at a time) Before entering the casino, temperatures are being taken via thermal imaging as well. At the floor, the first that catches my eyes is the Food Court... very well kept, clean (and is frequently cleaned by a staff as soon as someone is done eating or hanging out) The variety of foods being offered (American, Mexican, Asian and the Coffee and Pastries section are sure to satisfy ones hungry tummy and picky taste buds ) , as well as the price are very reasonable too and take note, unlimited fountain drinks are included in the price :-) They also have this fruit flavor shot machines which you can infuse your water, in case you're not a fan of sugary drinks The slot machines in the gambling area are particularly separated by protective shields, tons of hand sanitizing stations within every area, and the well kept bathrooms are equally impressive. This place is worth checking, should you feel hangin' out for some fun and excitement in gaming, every once in a while :-)

Going out for a night of gaming, food, drinks, and fun is probably my favorite weekend activity. Wait, it's my favorite activity. I have frequented every casino in the valley and hands down, Desert Diamond tops my list for the best casino in Arizona. Now they are lacking the hotel and resort experience so I'm speaking strictly about the casino, the vibe, and the atmosphere of being at a strictly gaming and nightlife establishment. The casino is always super clean and well-staffed to take care of all your needs. They have the newest and best games and amazing promotions to go with them. The poker room is 24hrs and always has action, not to mention the poker room, is absolutely enormous and there to the promotions are amazing. As far as the restaurants and bars they are top tier as well. The steak house is a hidden gem that is worth the trip by itself, several other spots are good and better than most of the other casinos in the valley. The food court is a little hit-and-miss from my experience, but all around decent for a late nite snack, I will say the pastry and coffee bar is a stand-out. Desert Diamond Casino is the go-to spot for any casino enthusiast if your looking for an amazing night out of gaming, drinks, food, and fun this is where you want to go.

Nestled near all of the activities in the west side of Maricopa County. After a Cardinals football game or a Coyotes Hockey game, you can’t beat cruising over basically next door and try your luck at some slots!!!!! Not only is there tons of fun slot machines ranging from $.01 Pennie’s to $1.00 slots. They also have my favorite Keno, Blackjack, Craps and even sports betting. A sure thing if your picking our darn Cardinals to lose unfortunately! :( But this casino has came a very long way. From a couple years ago being just a small little tent to now it’s massive beautiful building with so much enjoyment all around. The crowd varies . The weekends I feel like it caters to the more younger crowd and on the week days I feel like you will see your grandmother sitting right next to you showing off a huge jackpot. The payouts are great. I have had some amazing epic nights . As a matter of fact back in July I was able to take 12 hand pays in one evening. And I’m talking wins that are taxable $1200 and higher. My biggest jackpot was pretty recent for $9800 . That was quite exciting. All in all it’s a great place to go experience. If you have the money to spend and happen to be out in the west side of Maricopa then you should definitely consider going there!!!!!!

Desert Diamond Casino in Glendale, Arizona, offers a vibrant and engaging experience for visitors. With over 75,000 square feet of gaming space, it features a wide variety of the latest slot machines, table games, a Poker Room, and a Bingo Hall. The casino is known for its clean and well-maintained environment, with a state-of-the-art air filtration system ensuring comfort for all guests. The dining options are diverse, ranging from casual eateries to more upscale dining experiences. The Food Court offers a mix of Mexican, Asian, and American cuisines at reasonable prices. Additionally, there are two bars and a retail store with fashionable items and top-shelf liquor available at retail prices. One of the standout features is the excellent customer service. The staff is attentive and friendly, ensuring a pleasant experience for all visitors. The valet service is particularly praised for its efficiency and friendliness. However, some visitors have noted that the casino can be quite busy, and the non-smoking policy inside means smokers have to use designated outdoor areas. Despite these minor inconveniences, Desert Diamond Casino remains a popular destination for both locals and tourists looking for a fun and entertaining night out.
