After more than a year of heavy construction redeveloping the historic Civic Center area around Scottsdale City Hall to be “event ready,” the new outdoor community venue is set to reopen.
The first phase of improvements to Scottsdale Civic Center are set to open Jan. 22 with the Arizona Concours d’Elegance collector car exhibition, which is a ticketed event.
Several free and ticketed events will be held throughout the spring, according to a press release. The entire project will be complete in late March and the city is planning a community celebration in April to showcase the newly renovated public space.
Funding for the majority of the $33.5 million project was approved by Scottsdale voters in the 2019 bond election. Construction began in October 2021 and the area has been closed to the public during construction.
