Things To Do in Mesa, Arizona for the Last Weekend in January

We love all the entries so far for our $50 in Arizona Giveaway!  Keep them coming.  Just remember, entries are judged on how you will spend the money in Arizona AND how you are spreading the word of I Heart Mesa.  If you forgot that last part, just leave a separate comment and we will put 2 and 2 together.  

As we have said before, any profit we have made from this website, has gone back into it. 100%.  That's why it was time for another giveaway.  We have a vision to make Mesa better and we realize we are only as effective as our reader base.  (Besides a bigger reader base equates to bigger and better giveaways for you!)  So, spread the word about I Heart Mesa and keep sending us suggestions of events we can post about.  Our e-mail is iheartmesa@gmail.com.

Now, onto some events:

- Are you aware of all the upcoming shows at the Mesa Arts Center?  Get tickets for the National Geographic Live! Speakers series.  My husband, who loves photography and has taken many of our I Heart Mesa pictures, and I attended one a few years back.  It was very interesting listening to the stories and lives behind the pictures.  Or, what about tickets to My Fair Lady for this Tuesday and Wednesday?  Make sure to add a dash of culture into your life this year.

- Mesa may have lost the Royale, but you can still check out some cult classics in Tempe on Mill Avenue at MADCAP Theater.  Back to the Future will be playing Friday night at 9:00 PM.  Don't miss your reunion with Marty McFly.  More information here.  

- Fiesta Mall has free entertainment every weekend.  This weekend you can enjoy Polynesian entertainment, folklorico dancing, mariachi bands and more.  Go here for a list of the entertainment scheduled for this weekend.  Also at Fiesta Mall tomorrow, try to win 20,000 frequent flyer miles from Spirit Airlines.  Read this article for more information.
