Texas events

Texas is a big state full of big ideas and fierce independence. Few states can claim the same cultural diversity and overall spirit that the Lone Star State can, and it shows in its entertainment offerings, whether it's the athletic teams or the concert opportunities. From Lubbock to Austin, from Dallas to San Antonio, there's a lot going on here that you won't want to miss!

Texas venues

Texas is home to a vast array of professional sports franchises, notably the indomitable Dallas Cowboys of the NFL, the NBA's Dallas Mavericks, and two separate MLB teams: the Houston Astros and the Texas Rangers. And that's only the tip of the iceberg! Whatever your athletic tastes, there's a team here to cover them.

Catch major concerts at tour stops in Dallas's American Airlines Center or at the nearby Starplex Pavilion. In Houston, the Toyota Center regularly hosts major names in the music industry. Houston's robust Theatre District is also of interest, with a broad spectrum of major theaters that include The Wortham Center and Jones Hall, the Alley Theatre and The Hobby Center.

Love fairs and festivals? Texas has you more than covered! Check out the Texas State Fair in Dallas each autumn, or mosey on over to Houston to experience the fun of the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo, which incorporates concerts, BBQ, livestock shows, rodeo competitions and much more over the span of several weeks.
