June 11-13 Dallas Trip

My husband and I will be in Dallas for a couple of days in June. What are some things we should definitely see or do? We love the outdoors, good food, some of the arts, and general sightseeing. Thanks!

First question- where are you staying?

June 11-13 Dallas Trip

Try the Nokia Theater in Grand Prairie. Check out their website and get reservations in advance. Terrific opportunity for great entertainment in a small theatre.

Also Irving has some great live entertainment and it is much less expensive. The Irving Symphony Orchestra, Lyric Stage and Irving Arts Center at 3333 N. MacArthur Blvd. Check out their website at irvingartscenter.com Great entertainment in a small intimate venue where every seat is a great seat. Broadway shows and a whole lot more.

Thanks for the info!

We are unsure as to where we still stay. My DH is going on business. They have placed him at the Renaissance Dallas Hotel previously. It is usually a short distance from the business buildings in town. We should find out for sure within a week or so.

Thurs nights at Dallas Museum of Art are free after 5 pm and there is live music. Do you know exactly when you%26#39;ll be in town?

Nasher Scuplture Center across the street from DMA - has free admission on first Sat of month until noon or 2 pm. Plus they have other events in the evenings...music and movies. Again...depends on when you%26#39;ll be here.

if you are interested in museums, you should check out Fort Worth - they have outstanding museums, the beautiful Bass concert hall (you could catch the symphony or a show there) and a GREAT downtown for walking around shopping/eating at night.

my other suggestion would be to get a fantastic steak at Three Forks (III Forks) www.iiiforks.com in North Dallas - the filet mignon cooked medium is the best steak I have ever had

Thanks to all for your advice.

The steak sounds awesome!
