At Camelot Homes, we want residents to enjoy their luxury home and the unique winter activities Arizona has to offer. Although blankets of snowfall may not cover every region of our state, Arizona does offer a great variety of both traditional and distinct winter activities for residents and visitors, alike. From an Arabian horse show to the World Championship Hoop Dance Contest in Phoenix, there’s something for everyone.
Barrett-Jackson Collector Car Auction

World Championship Hoop Dance Contest at Heard Museum
In Phoenix on February 11 and 12, top American Indian and Canadian First Nation hoop dancers will perform and compete at the Heard Museum for the World Championship Hoop Dance Contest. A family-friendly event, this is an outdoor event ideal for the Arizona winter.
Skiing, Snowboarding and Fun
Snow in Arizona? Yes! There are several great places to go skiing and snowboarding up in the mountainous regions of Arizona. From your luxury home in Phoenix, it is just a short 45-minute flight to Greer and the Sunrise Park Resort, a ski haven on the state’s eastern edge.
The Snowbowl in Flagstaff is also about two hours from Phoenix and perfect for enjoying favorite winter activities like skiing, snowboarding, and even snowball fights. It’s a great place to escape the desert heat.
More Winter Fun
There are also many other unique, local winter events held in January every year. Don’t miss the Rock ‘n’ Roll Arizona Marathon, the Arizona Renaissance Festival in nearby Apache Junction.
And in February, be sure to catch Gold Rush Days in Wickenburg, an hour north of Phoenix, as well as the Havasu Balloon Festival and Fair in Lake Havasu City, approximately three hours from Phoenix.
From the high-end real estate communities of Phoenix and the surrounding area, it’s easy to reach snow-covered mountains or enjoy the lush valleys and scenic desert landscapes. This winter, explore luxury homes in Arizona and include a tour of Camelot Homes. Contact us today to schedule an appointment.
