Dallas-Fort Worth is finally opening up to exciting events for the upcoming weekend. Here’s a compiled list of events to satisfy your weekend cravings.
The timeless Billy Joel and Stevie Nicks concert has been rescheduled at the AT&T Stadium due to COVID-19, but worry not, as there are still plenty of other events to keep you entertained. One such event is Disney on Ice: Road Trip Adventures at Dickies Arena in Fort Worth. The Frozen and Encanto-themed show features Disney characters skating through iconic Disney destinations, offering a perfect experience for your little ones. With performances on Thursday and Sunday, this show is a must-see.
Fans of R&B legends are in for a treat as The O’Jays have organized a Final Tour at The Music Hall at Fair Park. With over 60 years of performing, original members Eddie Levert Sr. and Walter Williams Sr. are set to perform this Friday. You don’t want to miss this opportunity, so get your tickets now.
For some humor, Addison Improv presents Michael Rapaport. The popular New York comedian and actor will perform multiple shows on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, but keep in mind that the show is recommended for mature audiences.
Going on a bluebonnet trail walk could be a good idea too. Although the bluebonnets in Ennis haven’t fully bloomed yet, there are still plenty of flowers to view. The best time to go and beat the crowds is when things are in full bloom.
Saturday is loaded with a lineup of events. The Scarborough Renaissance Festival is back for its 42nd season in Waxahachie, with eight weeks of fun, starting this Saturday and running through May 29th. You can expect a plethora of entertaining activities, craft demonstrations, knighting ceremonies, combat and much more. In addition, Gigantic Gospel Concert at Friendship West Baptist Church features numerous well-known performers, including Pastor Shirley Caesar, Kelontae Gavin, Doc McKenzie and the Hi-Lites, among others.
If you’re a music enthusiast, then the Hip Hop Classic Tour Presents: Scarface at The Pavilion at Toyota Music Factory is a must-see. With performances by Doug E. Fresh, Slick Rick, Rakim, DJ Jazzy Jeff & Big Daddy Kane, and of course, Scarface himself, you can expect an unforgettable experience.
Last but not least, Easter in the Park is a great activity for those looking to celebrate Easter at Klyde Warren Park, Dallas. Hosted by St. Luke Community UMC, this year marks the third annual Easter in the Park, with plenty of activities for the kids. The service kicks off at 10 a.m., followed by an afternoon of balloon pop relay races, bubble making, face painting, golf ball bowling, and parachute popcorn, among others.
