Things to Do in Dallas This Weekend, Oct. 22–25: Grand Prairie’s Main Street Fest and More

Grand Prairie’s Main Street Fest is among the featured events in the Dallas area for the weekend of October 22–25, 2026. Presented by the City of Grand Prairie Parks, Arts & Recreation Department, the annual festival begins Friday, October 23, and runs through Sunday on Main Street in Grand Prairie. The festival combines live music with carnival rides and games, arts and crafts, and food and beverage gardens. Its Kidzone will offer a range of entertainment for children. The Commodores, Sammy Kershaw, and Keith Nieto are listed as headline performers; the source does not specify when each will take the stage. The wider weekend lineup includes country duo Dan + Shay at Dos Equis Pavilion on Thursday and comedian Charlie Berens at the Majestic Theatre on Friday. Several stage productions are also running nearby, including *Into the Woods* at UT Arlington, *The Great American Trailer Park Musical* at Theatre Arlington, and *Sweeney Todd* at The Firehouse Theatre in Farmers Branch. Unlike those single-venue performances, Main Street Fest brings its music, rides, games, and family activities together on Grand Prairie’s Main Street for three days, ending Sunday, October 25.
