Custom Hat Bar Events in Scottsdale & Tempe: Bachelorettes, Birthdays & Corporate Parties

Looking for a group activity in Scottsdale that everyone will actually remember? A custom hat bar event at Last Rodeo gives every guest a cowboy hat designed and shaped just for them, and a great story to take home. We host hat bar events at both of our stores: Old Town Scottsdale and Tempe.

How a hat bar event works

1. Pick your hat. Each guest chooses a felt or straw cowboy hat in their style and color.
2. Get it fitted and shaped. Our team steams and shapes the crown and brim to fit your head and your look.
3. Design it. Add hat bands, feathers, turquoise, conchos, ribbons and other trim from our design bar.
4. Take it home. Everyone leaves wearing a one-of-one hat, ready for Old Town, a rodeo or a concert.

Events we host

Bachelorette parties

Scottsdale is one of the most popular bachelorette destinations in the country, and a hat bar is the perfect first-day activity. Everyone gets a matching or coordinated hat for the weekend, and the bride can get something special. Pair it with our Scottsdale bachelorette guide.

Birthdays and girls' trips

Turn a birthday into a western celebration. Groups often come in before a night in Old Town, a rodeo or a country concert.

Corporate events and team building

Hosting clients or a team offsite in Scottsdale or Phoenix? A hat bar is a hands-on, creative activity that works for mixed groups and gives every guest a meaningful gift. It's also a great fit for conference groups visiting the Valley.

Rodeo and concert pre-parties

Heading to Rodeo Scottsdale, the Tucson Rodeo or The Hondo Rodeo Fest as a group? Get everyone's hats done together before the big day. For outfit ideas, see what to wear to a rodeo in Arizona.

Why groups choose Last Rodeo

• Two locations: Old Town Scottsdale (7072 E 5th Ave) and Tempe (414 S Mill Ave, Suite 119, near ASU).
• Real western hats from brands like Stetson, Resistol, Bullhide and Charlie 1 Horse, not costume hats.
• Expert shaping so every hat fits properly and holds its shape.
• A full western store on site, so guests can add boots, belts, jewelry or a complete outfit.
