Events Calendar
Peoria offers events that both a spectator and a participant will enjoy.
Community family events can be found throughout the year celebrating Easter, Halloween, winter
holidays, 4th of July and the city's heritage. You say you like music? How about concerts
featuring national and local acts under the stars at the Peoria Sports Complex or right down the
road at Cricket Pavilion. If you enjoy playing or watching baseball, a variety of local, regional
or national tournaments are offered throughout the year. How about professional baseball? Starting
in late February, The San Diego Padres and the Seattle Mariners get ready for the regular season
with spring training at the Peoria Sports Complex. A game a day in the month of March brings in such
teams as the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, Chicago Cubs, San Francisco Giants, Colorado Rockies,
Texas Rangers, Kansas City Royals, Oakland A's, Milwaukee Brewers, Chicago White Sox, and the
Arizona Diamondbacks. Cactus League baseball treats fans with major league baseball in a minor
league setting. With sun all year round, there is something for everyone in Peoria.
