In January of 2012, we launched the inaugural BEYOND event, which included as many as 36 individual events spread across the entire greater Pima County region on a single day—including hikes, fun runs, bike rides, scavenger hunts and outdoor dance opportunities.  The annual tradition has continued each year thereafter.

BEYOND kicks off the New Year with community-wide outdoor events that take place in several spectacular locations across Pima County.

For 2026, we are spreading the events out across two weekends in January! The plan is to engage different audiences and ages in diverse locations and activities around Tucson. All activities are mission-focused and engage one or more of our 4 pillars of health and wellness: move, explore, nourish, connect. Join us for one or many of them!

All events are FREE and open to the public. Registration / RSVP is required for each event – please click on each event for details
