Life thrives on North Fourth Avenue year-round, but it’s a whole 'nother scene during the March and December street fairs, when tens of thousands of pedestrians jam the roadway just north of downtown, browsing the arts, crafts and food booths that stretch for blocks. Live music and street performers keep the mood buoyant, and the three-day events provide some of Tucson’s best people-watching. Get your wallet and stomach ready.
