Gather Here: Holiday Celebrations at Sedona Center
The holidays have a way of bringing everyone back to the table.
Coworkers raise a glass after another year together. Families who haven't shared the same room in months linger over dinner. Friends order one more round because no one is quite ready for the evening to end.
Now put that table in Sedona.
Surrounded by red rocks and the festive energy of Uptown, Sedona Center offers several ways to bring your favorite people together this holiday season, whether you're organizing an office happy hour, planning the company holiday dinner or figuring out where the entire extended family can gather without anyone having to cook.
The only hard part may be deciding where to celebrate.
Four Restaurants, Four Ways to Gather
Open Range Grill & Tavern: Dinner With a View
When the occasion calls for dinner and a little wow factor, Open Range delivers both.
The restaurant welcomes group celebrations including corporate gatherings and special events, with a comfortable dining room and year-round patio overlooking Sedona's red rocks. Southwestern-inspired American cuisine, Brandt beef and handcrafted cocktails make it especially well suited to an office holiday dinner or an evening when you want everyone to settle in and stay awhile.
Time it around sunset and nature may even handle the holiday décor.
Don Diego Mexican Cuisine: Add Some Fiesta to the Festivities
Holiday happy hour? This might be your spot.
Don Diego Mexican Cuisine brings a festive Southwestern spirit to group gatherings with Mexican favorites, shareable dishes and cocktails made for raising a glass. Start the table with House Nachos, order a round of margaritas and let dinner unfold from there.
For office groups ready to trade the conference room for something considerably more colorful or families who like their holiday traditions with a little spice, Don Diego makes celebrating feel easy.
Sedona Pizza Company: Keep It Casual
Not every holiday gathering needs place cards and a seating chart.
For families, groups of friends and coworkers looking for something relaxed, Sedona Pizza Company keeps the focus where it belongs: good food and good company. Gather around the table over pizzas, pastas, salads and drinks while everyone shares, passes plates and catches up.
It's the kind of easygoing setting that works especially well when your group includes different ages and appetites—or when you'd simply rather skip the formality and enjoy being together.
Canyon Breeze Restaurant: Room for Everyone
When you're gathering a crowd with a lot of different tastes, options matter.
Canyon Breeze offers spacious indoor and outdoor seating and a menu with more than 70 choices, ranging from brick-fired pizzas and burgers to salads, sandwiches and Mexican favorites. Its relaxed, counter-service format makes it an approachable choice for multigenerational families and casual groups where everyone wants to choose their own thing.
Then there's the patio. Grab your food, find a table and settle in beneath those unmistakable Sedona red rocks. Holiday dinner doesn't get a backdrop like that everywhere.
Celebrating Something Even Bigger?
Holiday gatherings aren't the only celebrations that bring people to Sedona.
For couples ready to mark one of life's biggest moments, The Venue at Sedona Center offers an intimate setting for weddings, elopements and proposals in the heart of Uptown Sedona.
Accommodating up to 50 guests, The Venue is especially suited to couples who want their wedding day to feel personal rather than oversized. And with Sedona's red rocks just beyond the celebration, the setting brings its own kind of magic, whether you're exchanging vows surrounded by family and friends or getting down on one knee to ask a very important question.
Because some moments deserve more than a beautiful setting. They deserve a place you'll always remember.
Make the Gathering Part of the Day
One of the best things about celebrating at Sedona Center is that dinner doesn't have to be the entire plan.
Invite the office up early for a Sedona Trolley tour before happy hour. Meet the family for some holiday shopping before dinner. Wander through Uptown, pick up a few gifts and finish the evening with ice cream from Sabrina's Gourmet Ice Cream.
Suddenly, you've created more than a holiday meal. You've created a Sedona day together.
And isn't that what holiday gatherings are really about? Not the perfectly planned menu or carefully chosen decorations, but having everyone in the same place, sharing stories, laughing across the table and making another memory together.
This year, give your holiday gathering a red rock backdrop. Start planning your celebration at Sedona Center and explore group dining and event options for your family, friends or team.
