Jácome Plaza
Jácome Plaza is the City of Tucson's two-acre plaza at 101 N Stone Ave, a walkable downtown block that DUSK and Tucson Meet Yourself both use as the core of their festival footprints. There is no parking lot at the plaza itself, but it sits one block west of the Ronstadt Transit Center with two Sun Link Streetcar stops nearby, and paid garages ring the festival area for major events. The plaza has turf, benches and public art but no restrooms of its own, so facilities come with the festival.
