The Fountain is a 560-foot geyser-style fountain in Fountain Hills’ downtown center, originally constructed in 1970 by Robert McCulloch. The structure is one of the world’s largest man-made fountains, reaching water heights three times higher than Yellowstone Park’s famed Old Faithful geyser. 7,000 gallons of water pump through the fountain per minute as it spouts from a concrete water lily sculpture, with water plumes visible from as far away as the Superstition Mountains region. It serves as a major community landmark and public gathering space, spouting at 15-minute intervals on the hour daily from morning through evening. On special event days, the fountain’s height and viewing schedule are adjusted for broader operation.
