August is Tucson's birthday month (its 235th!), and we're cinematically celebrating with a special screening of Howard Hawks' classic 1959 western RIO BRAVO, filmed right here in the Old Pueblo!
Featuring an all-star cast including John Wayne, Dean Martin, Ricky Nelson and Angie Dickinson, this thrill-packed Old West adventure (created from equal parts laughs, suspense and blazing bullets ... not to mention musical numbers!) is one of the quintessential Hollywood westerns and one of the most famous films to be shot at Old Tucson Studios.
Spit shine your silver spurs, sidle up to the snack bar, and grab yourself a slice of our special "Bravo Tucson!" Birthday Cake (while supplies last), and enter our free raffle for a fabulous RIO BRAVO GIFT BASKET as we celebrate one of the greatest Tucson-shot films ever made!
