A Party Worth Showing Up Hungry For
Nothing goes better with live country music than seriously good food, and Trophy Bar delivers in a big way. From piping hot pizza and flavorful street tacos to juicy burgers and crispy wings, the menu is stacked with crowd favorites perfect for fueling a long night of dancing, singing, and celebrating.
But there’s one menu item already stealing the spotlight. The SWEET HEAT brings the perfect combination of bold flavors and comfort food goodness, loaded with white cheddar cheese sauce, fresh guacamole, pico de gallo, and candied jalapeños that deliver just the right kick. It’s the kind of dish that keeps people coming back for one more bite and then another. Of course, no country party is complete without a drink in hand. Whether you’re sipping on a handcrafted cocktail or cracking open an ice-cold beer, Trophy Bar knows how to keep the good times rolling.

Drinks That Keep the Energy High
Trophy Bar isn’t your average sports bar when it comes to drinks. Their bartenders bring creativity and personality behind the bar, serving up cocktails that go far beyond the basics. The Watermelon Margarita has quickly become a crowd favorite, offering a refreshing twist on a classic cocktail that feels made for warm Arizona evenings.
Beer lovers won’t leave disappointed either. With a lineup of local brews, including the fan favorite Four Peaks Kilt Lifter, there’s something for every kind of country fan looking to kick back and enjoy the night. It’s the kind of atmosphere where one drink naturally turns into two while the music gets louder, the crowd gets livelier, and the memories start making themselves.
Music All Afternoon Long
The entertainment lineup is bringing nonstop country vibes throughout the afternoon and evening, giving fans a taste of the incredible talent and energy that Country Fest is known for. Music kicks off at 1 PM with Western Fusion Trio, followed by the Danny Austin Duo at 2:30 PM, the Christian Warren Trio at 4 PM, and the Lacey Rashae Duo at 5:30 PM. The party keeps rolling with additional performances, including Hell & Highwater Duo. The headliner of the evening, starting at 7 PM, is the Josh Roy band, bringing us live entertainment guaranteed to keep boots stomping and drinks flowing. With live music pumping through the venue every hour, there won’t be a dull moment all day long. (Don’t forget to wish Josh Roy a happy birthday while you are there!)
