Talking Stick Resort is one of the leading attractions for entertainment in Scottsdale, thanks to its elegant décor and high-caliber amenities. Owned and operated by Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community (SRPMIC), the upscale hotel and casino rests on Salt-River Pima Maricopa Indian Reservation.
In total, the property encompasses more than 55 acres and contains 496 guest rooms, 21 meeting rooms, six entertainment lounges, a 25,000-square-foot Grand Ballroom, five restaurants, and a 13,000-square-foot spa perched on the property’s 14th floor. It also includes a fitness center, recently renovated pool area, outdoor stage, Showroom and a 240,000-square-foot casino.
Described by many as the centerpiece of the resort, the casino floor offers an array of games that satisfy players across all gaming levels. The area is home to more than 700 slot machines including Dolly Parton, Tully’s Treasure Hunt, Texas Dice, Cherry Chance, Dante’s Diamond, Catch the Money and so much more. The Arena Poker Room is home to 49 poker tables, such as Texas Hold ‘Em, Omaha and 7-Card Stud, as well as statewide tournaments like the annual Arizona State Poker Championship and Arizona State Ladies Poker Championship. The property also offers 54 tables of blackjack, Let it Ride and Three Card Poker, as well keno. Continuously adding to its gaming repertoire, the casino floor provides all players, from the novices to experts, with a favorite pastime.
But the good times don’t have to end on the gaming floor as Talking Stick Resort also offers an entertainment lineup that rivals the Las Vegas Strip. With 650 seats, the showroom provides an intimate experience, while the Salt River Grand Ballroom transforms from a meeting space to an evening concert site.
And with cutting-edge renovations to the pool at Talking Stick Resort, the facility has solidified itself as an outdoor concert venue as well. The renovated pool area features upscale expansions including a new-day lounge pool, 12 daybeds, six additional cabanas and a Stageline Mobile Stage for outdoor concerts. With an ability to host up to 4,000 guests, the facility has elevated its poolside celebrations, such as annual pool party series Release and music festivals Wet Electric and Tribute Fest, to a new level. Today’s top performers are also slated to grace the outdoor stage this summer including Roger Clyne & The Peacemakers, Stain and Collective Soul just to name a few.
