A Gathering for the Tech-Savvy and Curious

Are you ready to dive into the world of amateur radio? Whether you're a tech enthusiast, a budding HAM operator, or just someone who loves to explore new hobbies, the Superstition Amateur Radio Club's SuperFest is the event for you!

SuperFest is more than just a gathering; it's the largest ham radio event in the Desert Southwest. For over 40 years, we've been bringing together a diverse crowd on the first Saturday of December. This is your chance to meet people from all over the country, some of whom you might have only heard over the airwaves!

But SuperFest is not just about meeting fellow enthusiasts. It's also a massive open-air swap meet where you can find all sorts of radio and electronic equipment and supplies. Whether you're looking to start your HAM journey or upgrade your existing setup, you'll find what you need here.

And let's not forget the thrill of our raffles! With great prizes up for grabs, who knows what you might take home?

So, whether you're a seasoned HAM, a newcomer, or someone interested in getting an FCC license, SuperFest offers a wealth of opportunities to learn, share, and immerse yourself in the fascinating world of amateur radio.

Join us at the Superstition SuperFest and be part of a tradition that celebrates curiosity, learning, and the joy of connection. We can't wait to welcome you!
