What to Do and See in Scottsdale

September 20, 2018

Next week, 1,000 industry leaders, technology visionaries and peers will come together in Scottsdale, Arizona for Itron Utility Week (IUW). If you’re attending IUW 2018—Itron’s premier customer-focused conference—be sure to check out some of the fun and entertainment Scottsdale has to offer. If this is your first time in the city, be sure to check out:
  • The Desert Botanical Garden: The garden’s five paved trails introduce you to thousands of arid-land plants from around the world.
  • OdySea in the Desert: This shopping and dining center is home to the OdySea Aquarium, Dolphinaris and Butterfly Wonderland.
  • The Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art: View modern art, architecture and design on display in this renovated old movie theater.
  • McDowell Sonoran Preserve: This urban preserve has nearly 400 miles of scenic shared-use trails in the McDowell Mountain foothills that are great for hiking, mountain biking and horseback riding.
  • IUW Extracurriculars: Join the Desert Dash on Sunday, Monday or Tuesday morning; compete in the IUW annual golf tournament; or volunteer with peers. Details and schedules can be found in the IUW conference app.

Whatever you decide to do, we hope you enjoy your time in Scottsdale connecting with peers, networking with industry experts and learning more about the comprehensive solutions offered by Itron and our trusted partners.
