Summer in Fort Worth is one of those times when the city really feels alive, and it is easy to love where we live when there are so many ways to connect, give back, and have fun together, starting with volunteering at the Tarrant Area Food Bank where friends, families, and neighbors come together to help fight hunger and support our community, then celebrating big with the energy of Fort Worth’s Fourth on Panther Island at Panther Island Pavilion where the river turns into a gathering place filled with music, food, and one of the most impressive fireworks shows around, followed by the high energy excitement of the Dude Perfect Squad Games Tour at Dickies Arena bringing trick shots, laughs, and family fun to the heart of the city, then a creative and immersive family experience at Omni Reel Adventures with the Fort Worth Museum of Science and History inside the Omni Theater where science and storytelling come together in a magical way, continuing with the world class excitement of Hamilton at Bass Performance Hall reminding us how lucky we are to have Broadway right here in Fort Worth, and wrapping up with western charm and live music at the Hotel Drover in the Fort Worth Stockyards during Cowgirl Society night where the spirit of the Stockyards brings everyone together.
