Looking for the best things to do in Dallas this weekend? Here are our picks for the coolest family-friendly events and activities to add to your list for this weekend.
Parents, "Maycember" has arrived, so if you're looking for things to do in Dallas, Fort Worth, or the rest of the metroplex, this is a good weekend to do something fun that's not related to school or any of the various extracurriculars your kids have going on. Enjoy the legendary Cinco de Mayo parade in Oak Cliff or the Folklorico Dance Festival in McKinney in honor of Cinco de Mayo. Head to the Dallas Zoo for the first Safari Nights of 2025, or ride the rides and enjoy the music at Mayfest in Fort Worth.
The Black Heritage Celebration at the Dallas Arboretum is always a best bet, and for any Star Wars fans, the LEGO build at NorthPark or the free May the Fourth Be With You concert in Richardson is right up your alley.
In typical North Texan fashion, the weather forecasts are showing (mostly) sunny skies, so enjoy your weekend, y'all!
