Where to Go in Phoenix this Mother’s Day

Mother’s Day comes around every May. It’s a time to celebrate your mom, your wife, or perhaps yourself. If you’re in Phoenix or planning a trip there with Mom, there are plenty of things to do to celebrate her and all she does. 

Think about what she likes when plotting out your Mother’s Day celebration. Does she hate crowds? Love bottomless mimosas? Relish the great outdoors? Curate the perfect day from our list below of top things to do in Phoenix and the surrounding area this Mother’s Day. 

Delicious Brunch

Brunch is always an excellent choice, and we speak for most moms (and everyone else) when we say that they love a chance to eat breakfast food with their loved ones! There are plenty of brunch options to choose from in Phoenix. You’ll want to check out reservations in advance, as Mother’s Day tends to be one of the most popular brunch holidays of the year.

Cala Scottsdale is a beautiful coastal-inspired restaurant located in the Senna House hotel. Brunch is served daily, so you can go on the day itself or beat the crowds by taking Mom out on a different day of the week. Order an espresso martini, enjoy a shrimp cocktail, and peruse this inspired menu while you celebrate your favorite lady!

Spa Day

Moms love getting a well-deserved and often rare break to relax and get pampered. Nothing beats a spa day, whether you make it a joint activity or send her on her way with a gift card for some much-needed alone time. Arizona is known for its spas and luxury experiences, so there’s no shortage of places to unwind this Mother’s Day.

Wigwam Golf Resort & Spa is the place to be this Mother’s Day. In addition to being a great place to stay, they have a wide array of amenities including fitness, golf, pools, and, of course, an amazing spa. They’re also hosting a Mother’s Day brunch, so she can spend the whole day getting treated. Gift her treatments ranging from body and skin to hair and nails.

Paint Night

If you’re looking for a fun activity to do together, a paint night is a fun way to spend time together with Mom this Mother’s Day. You may want to paint and sip or brush up on your artistic skills, and the options are endless. Whether or not you and Mom consider yourself fine artists, a night of painting together is sure to be filled with endless laughs and fond memories.

The Brush Bar offers guided paint classes while you listen to music and sip on a beverage of your choice. They have specific paintings planned for Mother’s Day, or you can book for a different painting the day before.

Wine Night

If you think Mom would enjoy some fine glasses of wine, taking her out for a nice dinner paired with some delicious wine is a great idea. It’s fun to get dressed up and relax with wine while enjoying a night out on the town.

Peacock Wine Bar offers a special experience as a bar that blends incredible wine and food with books. This is perfect for the book lover or any mom who likes a unique twist on classic wine bars. Make a reservation for Sunday brunch, lunch, or a late afternoon drink.

Garden Stroll

Want to get outside instead of or in addition to a nice meal this Mother’s Day? Going for a walk in a beautiful park or on a hike are great ways to spend time with Mom without breaking the bank. May tends to be a beautiful time of year in Phoenix, so you’re likely to come across good weather while enjoying the great outdoors with your family.

The Japanese Friendship Garden is a beautiful and budget-friendly place to see beautiful nature and get outside this Mother’s Day. Explore everything from the koi pond to the pagoda as part of your regular admission ticket, or make it even more special by signing up for their flower-arranging workshop the morning of Mother’s Day.

Personalized Jewelry

Personalized jewelry, which may include selecting your choice of colorful gemstones, is another way to give Mom a meaningful gift.

A Sweet Card

To top off your jewelry gift, we recommend personalizing it with a card. You may want to make the card by hand and incorporate your gift somehow, or you may want to pick one out just for her. While moms love sparkly diamonds, they also love sweet sentiments that remind them of how much you care.
