It’s truly at the crossroads of the East Valley!  Loop 101 and Loop 202 create the 4 corners of Tempe, Scottsdale, Mesa and the Native American Reservation.

Riverview MapThat’s right, the NEW Chicago Cubs Spring Training Stadium is located at Mesa Riverview!  Have you caught a game yet?  You should!

FYI: Chicago is the birthplace of performance improv with such notable groups as The Second City & Improv Olympic.

Here are a few fun things to do around Mesa Riverview any time of the day and any time of the year!

Bass Pro Shops Outdoor World – An outdoor experience like none other.  I’ve attended a few free workshops and fun activities throughout the year and the kids and I are never disappointed.

Reclining-SeatsCinemark Movie Theater – With comfortable recliners and reserved seating, I have a hard time going anywhere else to watch movies!  I love it here.

Howie’s Game Shack – Although I’m not a gamer, this place sure looks like a lot of fun for the kids and adults!  If you like playing video games, check it out.

Mesa-Riverview-ParkRiverview Park – on the west side of Dobson rd. (near the cubs stadium) you’ll find a climbing structure that will send either excitement or terror through your body!  My kids would rather drive 15 min from home to play here than walk a block to our corner park.

Hubbard Family Swim School – I know how to swim, but not everyone does.  A fun indoor pool with classes for all ages.

I personally get excited for the unique activities that happen at Riverview throughout the year.  including the Phoenix Marathon Finish line!

FYI:  JesterZ improv was given the honor of announcing the podium winners of the Phoenix marathon and half marathon in 2015 and have been asked to return for 2016!  Look for us!

But what I really want to talk about is the FOOD at Riverview!  Grab a bite to eat on your date!2014-08-24 01.09.06

Just to name some of my favorites.

Have you been to iCream??  LOVE IT!!  A family favorite!  Unfortunately, they close before our last show gets out, but you can definitely grab some good ice cream after the 7:00 show or before the 9:00!

So whether you are coming to see a JesterZ improv comedy show on a Friday or Saturday night with family, friends, or on a date, you can count on a good time in one location: Mesa Riverview!
