Summer in the East Valley usually means retreat. Restaurants trim hours, calendars thin out, and residents plan around the heat. Downtown Chandler is running the opposite play this year, and the schedule tells you why.
The Downtown Chandler Community Partnership has stacked June and July with programming, six breweries are open within walking distance of one another, and a wave of new operators has chosen the last twelve months to plant a flag. If you live here, the summer is not something to wait out. It is the most concentrated stretch of new openings and public events the district has run in years.
The Bet Behind "Channel Your Chill"
The season's spine is a campaign called Channel Your Chill.
