About Old Tucson Entertainment LLC
Old Tucson Entertainment LLC is a subsidiary of American Heritage Railways, established to operate the historic Old Tucson Studios as a public Western Frontier-type recreational and entertainment venue.
Located just outside Tucson, Arizona, Old Tucson Studios was originally built in 1939 for the film "Arizona" and has served as the backdrop for over 400 feature films and television shows.
These include classics such as "Gunfight at the O.K. Corral" (1957), "Rio Bravo" (1959), and "Tombstone" (1993).
