Expect heavy traffic in the Valley and Old Pueblo on game day. Finding parking is often harder than winning the coin toss.

From the roar of the 16th hole to the massive crowds, the experience feels closer to a major festival than a traditional PGA event.

When you’re navigating through things to do on New Year’s Eve across Phoenix and Tucson, you need a ride strategy to shape the year’s final night.
