Festival at the Switchyard is one of our region’s biggest festivals – and it’s free!

The Wallflowers headline  this year with Deep Blue Something opening. It all takes place in Historic Downtown Carrollton, a short walk from Downtown Carrollton Station on the Green Line.

Día de los Muertos is Garland’s annual celebration, which includes mariachi and ballet folklorico performances. Adding to the festivities is Dreaming of You: The Selena Experience, a tribute band honoring the Queen of Tejano. There will also be food trucks, a juried art exhibition, an artisan market, and altar displays. Experience it at the Granville Arts Center, right next to the Blue Line’s Downtown Garland Station.

Exit the King is French playwright Eugene Ionesco’s absurdist comedy set in a crumbling palace where a once-great king refuses to accept his demise. The play opens Saturday night and runs through Nov. 24 at the Undermain Theatre, walkable from Baylor University Medical Center Station on the Green Line.
