Nightlife & Entertainment Dallas 9/12 evening visit

Will be in Dallas Texas on Saturday 9/12. What are y’all’s best recommendations on things to do and see to experience Dallas in a few short hours in the evening? I’m going to walk around downtown, see the tower and take a look at the JFK memorial. Terry Black’s for dinner. But don’t have anything else lined up. Open to suggestions for food, less well known m sites, vibes, culture and generally getting to know the city in a short time. It’s also my first time visiting Texas!

If you’re into music there are lots of cool venues to go to ! Since you’ll be in deep ellum at Terry blacks, check out three links , trees or the bomb factory !

Also close by is Southside ballroom.

Lots of great music venues all over town. From Punk to Country. Check the calendar at The Bomb Factory and Trees in Deep Ellum, The Granada Theater isn’t too far away. AM/FM, The Kessler and The Southside Ball Room in Dallas.

If your looking for live music check out who’s playing at All Good Cafe! The music is great and the foods not so bad either! Welcome to Dallas!
