Friday, November 8th Events
First up, Jazz in the Garden at the beautiful Japanese Tea Garden will be the perfect way to unwind after a long week. As the fall season comes to a close, this event will feature the smooth sounds of Jose Amador & Terra Nova. Make yourself comfortable—grab a lawn chair or a cozy blanket, and relax while you sip on some drinks (available for purchase at the Jingu House). Best part? The concert is completely FREE!
If you’re in the mood for a movie night, then look no further than the H-E-B Cinema on the Plaza at the Tobin Center! They’ll be screening the animated favorite, The Incredibles. Bring along some close pals or the whole fam, and enjoy a classic film under the twinkling stars. Bring your lawn chairs and settle in for a fun evening, because this movie night is also totally FREE!
For those who want to dive into a quirky story, the iconic ‘Mean Girls’ is hitting the Majestic Theatre stage! This hilarious Broadway musical, adapted from the cult-classic film, will take you on a wild ride through high school drama—from what it really means to “become a plastic” to surviving high school. Show dates continue through November 10th, so don’t let this one pass you by!
And if you’re in the mood for some rock ‘n’ roll, the legendary Black Crowes will be giving a concert at the Tobin Center! Get ready to jam to classics like “She Talks To Angels” as they promote their new album, Happiness Bastards. Tickets are available now, so don’t miss your chance to rock out!
Saturday, November 9th Festivals
On Saturday, the Yanaguana Indian Arts Festival is happening at the Briscoe Western Art Museum! This vibrant festival celebrates the rich culture and artistic traditions of Native American communities. You’ll get to enjoy the sounds of drum circles, dancing, storytelling, and even a spiritual blessing! Plus, there will be some delicious traditional Native American-inspired food to savor while you soak up all the culture. Don’t forget, entry to this awesome event is FREE!
Later in the evening, head on over to the Tobin Center once again for a charismatic performance by the Vitamin String Quartet. They will bring you chart-topping hits like you’ve never heard them before—think your favorite tracks from Bridgerton, Taylor Swift, The Weeknd, and Billie Eilish, all reimagined through beautiful string instruments. It’s going to be a memorable night of music!
