The Dallas Arboretum’s Cool Thursday Concert Series will return as the place to listen to some favorite and new bands perform. Bands perform on the Martin Rutchik Concert Stage and Lawn overlooking White Rock Lake, a picturesque view that includes the sun setting in the background during the concerts.

City of Dallas guidelines allow the Dallas Arboretum to hold outdoor events at 50 percent capacity with COVID safety standards in place. There is a social distance plan for the lawn with squares drawn in the grass and a limit to the amount of bags and coolers allowed. Tables are not allowed, and only small low-to-the-ground beach style chairs are allowed to help fit everyone onto the Concert Lawn safely. High beach chairs, tables and/or multiple bags/coolers will be turned away at the entrance gate. Face coverings are required for the duration of one’s visit.

Attendees can bring picnics and beverages or purchase food items from some of Dallas-Fort Worth's favorite food trucks.
