    As concerns regarding the spread of the coronavirus and government restrictions on group gatherings continue, more event cancellations, postponements, and reschedulings are being announced every day in Dallas-Fort Worth. In an effort to keep you as up-to-date as possible, we'll compile a list of different announcements every week.

    New in-person and virtual events are on the uptick, so we may be able to occasionally present the regular weekly events roundup. Still, to be sure you're up to speed, you may want to check with the presenting organization or venue regarding the status of any particular event.

    Dallas

    • Dallas Art Fair: The annual large-scale art show, which had been postponed from April 16-18 to October 1-4, has now been canceled. It will return April 15-18, 2021.
    • Dallas Symphony Orchestra: The orchestra announced a reduced 2020-2021 season, postponing, cancelling, or rescheduling multiple concerts. There are now only 15 scheduled concerts in fall 2020, with the spring 2021 schedule to be determined at a later date.
    • Girls Gotta Eat: This live performance of the popular podcast, scheduled for September 10 at Majestic Theatre, has been postponed to an undetermined date.
    • The Kessler: The concert venue has rescheduled a number of concerts, including Bob Schneider (was August 7, now May 14, 2021), James McMurtry (was August 13, now June 4, 2021), and The Polyphonic Spree: Jukebox Jamboree (was August 21-22, now February 27-28). They have also postponed Big Bad Voodoo Daddy (August 15) to an undetermined date.
    • The Last Podcast on the Left: This live performance of the popular podcast, scheduled for August 24 at Majestic Theatre, has been rescheduled for June 4, 2021.
    • The Read Live: This live performance of the popular podcast, scheduled for September 5 at Majestic Theatre, has been canceled.
    • Undermain Theatre: The theater company has canceled all live performances through the end of 2020, which includes Athena (September 9-October 4) and Hedda Gabler (November 11-29). At this time, it has not been announced if those productions will be rescheduled. In lieu of live performances, Undermain will present multiple streaming series, including In Concert Undermain (featuring music performances), Archives Undermain (revisiting previous live productions, starting with the 2014 production of We Are Proud to Present a Presentation... by Jackie Sibblies Drury), and Virtual Undermain (new streaming-only productions).

    Fort Worth

    • Billy Bob's Texas: While the music venue has postponed two more concerts, including Gretchen Wilson (August 7) and Drake White & The Big Fire (August 14), they have plans to open up under restaurant guidelines starting August 14 with a concert by The Bellamy Brothers (who moved up their scheduled December 4 date). Upcoming concerts will be limited to 1,200 tickets, although that could change given the circumstances.
    • Chamber Music Society of Fort Worth: The classical music group has canceled the first three concerts of its 2020-2021 season, scheduled for September 12, October 10, and November 21 at the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth. The five concerts in 2021 are still scheduled, and the group is finalizing plans for three live-streamed concert performances by local artists.
    • Fort Worth Opera: The arts group has officially canceled its annual McCammon Voice Competition, originally scheduled for April 3 and 4. In lieu of the prizes the competitors could have won, each of the 30 semi-finalists will be given a grant of $300 to provide some financial relief during these challenging times.
    • Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra: The symphony has postponed a number of events in its 2020-2021 season, including Wild Wild West (September 12), Legends: The Paul Simon Songbook (September 25-27), Audra McDonald (November 6), The Music of John Williams (November 13-15), The Snowman (November 21), Handel's Messiah (December 4-6), and America's Wonders (January 2, 2021). Other programs throughout the season have been adjusted for content, performers, dates, and times.
    • Hip Pocket Theatre: After cancelling most of its season in June, the theater company has now postponed its final production, The Slam Bang Story of Icky Twerp (scheduled September 11-27), to September 10-26, 2021. Each of the other productions planned for 2020 will now take place in 2021, as well.
    • The Killers: This concert, scheduled for September 11 at Dickies Arena, has been postponed to an undetermined date.

    Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex, Chanel Pysnik, Alysa Nahmias and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex attend the "Cookie Queens" Premiere at the 2026 Sundance Film Festival.

    The lineup for the Dallas International Film Festival, which is celebrating its 20th edition in 2026, will feature over 30 feature films designed to appeal to a variety of movie lovers.

    The festival, taking place April 23-30 at Cinépolis Luxury Cinemas Victory Park, will include screenings of more than 120 films total, along with Q&A sessions, panels with filmmakers and actors, nightly DIFF Red Carpets, and special events.

    One of the highlights of the festival will be Cookie Queens, a documentary about Girl Scout Cookie season that is executive produced by Meghan Markle and Prince Harry through their company, Archewell Productions.

    Directed by Alysa Nahmias, the film follows four girls as they navigate the annual whirlwind of selling, striving, and succeeding.

    Notable films on the fiction side will include:

    • The North American premiere of Keep Quiet, about a weathered tribal cop (Lou Diamond Phillips) and his new trainee who must find a ruthless fugitive.
    • The horror film Obsession, about a hopeless romantic who gets more than he asked for when he makes a wish for his dream girl to fall in love with him.
    • Poetic License, the directorial debut of Maude Apatow starring her mom, Leslie Mann, as a middle-aged woman who has two college students (Cooper Hoffman and Andrew Barth Feldman) fighting for her affection in a poetry workshop.
    • Power Ballad, the latest film from writer/director John Carney (Once) about Rick (Paul Rudd), a past-his-prime wedding singer who feuds with Danny (Nick Jonas), a fading boy-band star after Danny turns one of Rick's songs into a hit.
    • Tuner, starring Leo Woodall as a talented piano tuner whose skills lead him to discover an unexpected aptitude for cracking safes, turning his life upside down. The film also stars Dustin Hoffman and Havana Rose Liu.

    Among the other documentaries shown at the festival will be:

    • $10 Cowboy, which takes viewers on the road and front row for Charley Crockett's record kickoff tour at home in Texas.
    • Gaslit, featuring actor and activist Jane Fonda as she ventures deep into the oil and gas country, meeting the people who are exposing the fossil fuel industry’s lies.
    • Kenny Loggins: Convictions of the Heart, detailing how the singer went from a shy, gawky, unpopular, big-eared kid with low self-esteem to becoming one of the biggest rock stars of the 1980s.
    • One in a Million, about a Syrian girl's decade-long journey to Germany and back as she and her family face the challenges of war and life as refugees.

    There will also be a retrospective screening of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, coming on the heels of the recent death of star Robert Redford, as well as short films that can qualify for next year's Academy Awards.

    Additionally, the winning scripts in DIFF's screenplay competition will be performed live by trained actors from Dallas-based Sherrill Actors Studio at table read sessions during the festival.

    While most screenings and events will take place at Cinépolis Luxury Cinemas Victory Park, some will be held at Texas Theatre and the Virgin Hotels Dallas.

    Passes for the 2026 Dallas International Film Festival are now on sale at diffdallas.org/diff/passes.

    The full schedule and on-sale date for individual program tickets will be announced at a future date.
