    The rodeo is a great way to spend the day. It's family fun packed with rides, food, music, shopping…read moreand much more. Spread out over multiple venues. You will get your steps in. There are shuttles and golf carts to and from venues as well as the parking lot.

    This was me and my bestie's first year attending the Houston Rodeo, and we were not completely sure…read moreof what to expect, other than what we had seen on TikTok. I have been to rodeos prior in Fort Worth, but definitely on a much smaller scale. Overall, we had a great experience and I would recommend the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo, albeit with some pre-planning as it was a bit difficult to navigate. When we initially arrived via Uber, we were dropped off at the rideshare drop off/pick up area, and it was a little walk to the stadium, where we were able to pretty quickly and seamlessly go through security and make our way into the grounds. Once inside, we did have some trouble navigating where/what we were going to since we are new to the event, but we were able to find our way to the livestock show after some trial and error. Once in the stadium, we immediately decided to grab some drinks before we found our seats. Unfortunately our experience was not the best, and when we ordered drinks we felt disregarded and the staff member helping us was rude and short with us. After we received our drinks, we were making our way to our seats and the $14 Mr Pibbs were completely flat, but we were anxious to go back after our experience with the staff. However, the staff who directed us to our seats were amazing! Not only were they super helpful, but after the concert they took photos for me and my best friend which was so kind and I will cherish forever, since we live states away from each other and rarely get photos together. The livestock show and rodeo was so fun and interactive, and we had the best time watching all of the events and hearing the commentary. The concert was also awesome, and the setup was perfect for all angles to enjoy seeing the act. We saw the Red Clay Strays and it was such an amazing experience. Afterwards, we made our way to the carnival just for some after concert snacks and to see the ambiance, and it was great! We grabbed some esquites and there was plentiful seating to people watch and enjoy the carnival energy. Afterwards however, we weren't able to order our Uber to the same drop off zone for some reason, so we were hesitant but had to order to a sushi restaurant a short walk nearby. It was definitely scary walking as two girls over there, and we did our best to stick around other rodeo-goers, but the shady taxi drivers and men carrying phones flashing their driver options were very insistent and invasive of us, heckling us with constant questions after we politely declined. One driver even circled us blasting music, and it was nerve-wracking since we aren't from Houston and are young women. I would hope that in the future these "drivers" can be deterred from the area or the rideshare zone can be better advertised or organized to prevent instances like these. Otherwise, we did make it out safely and in the future will be better prepared to get in and out of the rodeo!

    Everything about it was amazing amazing amazing amazing I love Texas renfest trf trf trf trf Texasread more

    I have been coming here for years. I mean decades. If you, your partner, your family, your friends…read moreare looking for something cool to do that you don't get to do everyday. You should come to TRF. At the very least, this is the largest Renaissance festival in the US if not elsewhere as well. I highly suggest getting in early because the lines to get in throughout the day get longer. This place can get pretty packed, both at the gate and in the food and drink lines. They have a ginormous parking lot, it's dirt and grass. And it can bottleneck quite a bit at the entry point. Once you're in, they have hundreds of stalls of food, merchant selling different things, people putting on different types of shows, be it skill, craft, or comedy/drama. There's plenty of activities. The park itself is sectioned off into different themed areas, both the food and activities follow suit. They have tons of shows around the different areas in addition to the Central stage where you can see the king, jousting, sword fighting and the whole lot. Highly suggest going to the restroom before you leave, because you will likely be stuck in some traffic on the way out and you don't want to hold it. Trust me. In the last couple years I've taken to camping on their campgrounds. This requires an extra pass for camping, in addition to your entry. If you do things in groups it costs a lot less with a discount. They have porta potties throughout the campgrounds, and also a brick and mortar shower and restroom at the front of the campgrounds. The campgrounds are separated into two areas, the family the zone, which is closer to the main gate, and the non-family zone which is a mixed bag depending on what weekend you go closer to the festival area. This place gets pretty rowdy, and they are up late. If you intend to camp, this is the social area where a lot of things go. If you want a more relaxed, in civil area, stick to the family zone ( I don't). Highly recommend arriving early on the Friday before you're going in, as the camping area is first come first serve. We go in a pretty big group so we try to stake out enough space for all of our people. It's quite an experience, we really enjoy all of the people working there in character. They do a great job, and make it a great experience! Whether you're there with the family out for drinking or interested in shows and merchandise, there's something for everybody here. And the amount of different kinds of food is crazy.

    If you're looking for a fun Texas-style country nightclub without making the trip to the crowded…read moredowntown area, this is a great neighborhood spot. We visited on a Friday for a ladies' night out with a group of friends. We really enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and the crowd. It was friendly, mature, and not the typical wild nightclub scene. The venue offers both indoor and outdoor spaces, each with its own vibe. The indoor area has a lively atmosphere with louder music, a spacious dance floor, a few pool tables, a mechanical bull, multiple bar stations, and a small food counter with a limited but tasty menu. We tried a few items, and the tacos and quesadillas were absolutely delicious. The drinks were great as well. The indoor dance floor was mostly geared toward country and line dancing, which, in my opinion, felt more suited to couples than to groups of friends. The outdoor area was my favorite. It has its own music and dance floor with free style dancing, at a comparatively lower volume, making it much easier to relax, socialize, and still enjoy dancing. There's plenty of seating, a large fire pit, and another bar station, making it a perfect place to hang out with friends. They also have different food, drink and entry specials throughout the week, so it's worth checking their website before visiting. Overall, I had a fantastic time. The food, drinks, atmosphere, and welcoming crowd made for a memorable evening. I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a laid-back Texas country nightlife experience close to home!

When we got off the party bus they offered us a one complimentary drink ,and one free bull ride card. So of course, everyone was excited to get on the dance floor. Also, they had two DJ's one inside and also on the back patio outside too. We definitely had an amazing time. I can't wait to try out the other locations too!
