The Hut

This tropical bar will have you smiling wider than a pineapple and laughing louder than a Macaw.
The spacious outdoor area is one of the most laid-back, best-known places to hang in Tucson. Live music, pool tables, fast friends and fruity drinks can be considered good reasons, too.

This huge three-story sculpture was moved from the now-defunct Magic Carpet Golf Course to The Hut in 2009.
It weighed 42,000 lbs and an additional 10,000 lb frame was constructed to move it from its former home on Speedway Blvd. to The Hut on 4th Ave.

Few cities in the country maintain the spirit of local Indie businesses and the funky artistic charm of Fourth Avenue in Tucson. It hosts an artisans street fair that brings over 200,00 people over a weekend twice yearly.
Bars, coffee shops, vintage clothing shops, a record store, murals galore, and more, all enhance the charm of this rare and unique place.
Now graced by the GIANT Friki Tiki sculpture at The Hut, 4th Avenue truly is a kitsch landmark in the Southwest.
