Streets, restaurants and businesses should expect more traffic this weekend because of the 42nd edition of The Great Fair, Friday through Sunday, Feb. 26-28.

The Chamber of Commerce sponsors the annual arts and crafts festival on the Avenue of the Fountains and a section of Saguaro Boulevard from Palisades Boulevard to Paul Nordin Parkway.

About 500 artists and crafters will exhibit and sell their work from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., daily. Admission and parking are free.

Entertainment will be “He Said…She Said,” a husband and wife duo comprised of Thano and Lauren (Lolo) Sahnas. They will perform at the main entertainment at the intersection of Verde River Drive and the Avenue of the Fountains.

Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 7507, long-time organizers of a beer garden at the festival, will again provide another venue for music facing the Fountain along Saguaro Boulevard.

Food concessionaires will be grouped in a food court extending along Verde River Drive and Paul Nordin Parkway, as well as at Saguaro and the Avenue overlooking Fountain Park.

Several local non-profits organizations sell food and drinks to raise funds for community programs in addition to commercial vendors.

Scooter rentals are available. The Chamber requests people leave their pets at home for everyone’s safety and enjoyment.
