Fiesta Bowl Museum — Attraction in Scottsdale

There is some limited street parking in front, or you can park in either the Waterfront Parking Garage nearby or the South Bridge garage- all have accessible spots and a paved sidewalk that takes you to the museum. What's nice is this museum is free, and you get to learn about football and also the start of the Fiesta Bowl- great for those who are fans of football and sports.

As you walk in, to your left, there's a huge glass shelf of football helmets and to your right- there's more floor-level glass displays of trophies, etc and to the far right- a ticket booth. As you walk into the next room, they have some mannequin football players right at the end. Around, there are some recessed sections with information on the Fiesta Bowl- quite a bit to read and they had some bits of pieces of knick knacks to look at. You can also exit to the back patio too which has a plaque on their founders. It took about 30-45 minutes to slowly walk through and read through most of the signs.

A small, but well designed museum near Scottsdale Fashion Mall that features all the memorabilia of the Fiesta Bowl from time past to the present. Lots of history plus info about recent events presented by the Fiesta Bowl. Colorful displays of pictures and replicas of players, uniform jerseys, and trophies from the various NCAA teams that have played in the Fiesta Bowl. Very interesting facts also such as why the Fiesta Bowl volunteers wear yellow jackets. You'll have to visit to find out and enjoy all the cool items on display! Finally, there's a huge full-wall mural in the museum that's wonderfully colorful and very action packed, totally reflective of the Fiesta Bowl. Definitely go check out this small but jampacked museum in the heart of Scottsdale....

We had a fantatstic time. The game was fun, the Museum staff was amazing when we had a challenge with our tickets, State Farm stadium was a perfect venue. I give 4 stars because the parking situation was insane. I paid $60 online to buy parking ahead of time, and you could buy the same lot on site for $40. The parking staff members were beyond rude and it was very disorganized, empty spaces all over because people were not being "fed" into spots like at most events. But the lots were blocked off as "full." Otherwise, it was a...
