About Gilbert, Arizona


Back in the day, Gilbert was known for its farming community, which produced so much hay that the city was nicknamed the world’s hay capital. However, with 300,000 residents today, the city has moved towards modernism, incorporating different natural and cultural attractions in its sphere.

A popular space is the Riparian Preserve at Water Ranch, which has nearly 200 bird species and plenty of picnic tables for locals to enjoy their day surrounded by colorful species. The city’s talent and performative art scene is presented by the Hale Centre Theatre that has around 350 chairs, and produces different shows, including those for children.

Downtown Gilbert isn’t exactly a spacious area, but it has everything one could need in a small city, including a farmers market, live music, and several restaurants.
