MESA, AZ (AZFamily) — Cannon Beach Entertainment Center in Mesa is hosting its own First Friday event with a soft launch on Friday. Ryan Armstrong, special events and partnerships coordinator for Cannon Beach and Revel Surf, said the venue is ideal to host an event like First Friday. “Cannon Beach as a whole is the new entertainment mecca of the East Valley,” he said. The Cannon Beach event is not affiliated with — nor a relocation of — the long-running First Friday art walk in Phoenix. While the Roosevelt Row Community Development Corporation and Downtown Phoenix Inc. suspended the ARTS Market street closure and vendor setup on Roosevelt Row indefinitely following safety concerns, other First Friday events in Phoenix continue to take place. Armstrong said the complex currently houses KTR Cannon Beach, MiniCity indoor playground and BRKTHROUGH challenge venue, with additional venues in development. Level 11, planned to offer indoor go-karting, a movie theater and bowling, is expected to open in the future, along with two hotels currently in the works.
