Classic rock band The Doobie Brothers will come to Dallas as part of an extensive U.S. tour in summer 2024, playing at Dos Equis Pavilion on Saturday, June 29.

The Rock & Roll Hall of Famers will travel to 38 cities across the country, starting in Seattle, Washington on June 15. They'll make a two-city swing through Texas two weeks later, including a stop in The Woodlands on June 30, with the tour continuing through August 30.

They'll be joined by special guest The Robert Cray Band at both Texas dates. Steve Winwood will be the special guest at various other concerts on the tour.

The classic lineup of Tom Johnston, Michael McDonald, Pat Simmons, and John McFee - which officially reunited for the Doobie Brothers' 50th anniversary tour for the first time in over 25 years - will be back together again.

The yacht rock band has released 15 albums in their 50+ year career, most recently Liberté in 2021. They also released a new single, “Lahaina,” in 2023. The song, which featured Mick Fleetwood, Jake Shimabukuro, and Henry Kapono, is in support of those affected by the devastating fires in Maui.

Selling nearly 50 million albums worldwide, the Doobie Brothers have had five top-10 singles, 16 top-40 hits, three multi-platinum albums, seven platinum albums, 14 gold albums, and own a rare diamond record for their 1976 album, Best of the Doobies.

Citi cardmembers will have access to presale tickets beginning Tuesday, January 23 at 10 am until Thursday, January 25 at 10 pm through the Citi Entertainment program.

The general on sale begins on Friday, January 26 at 10 am at LiveNation.com.

Hurricane Harbor Arlington opens for the 2026 season on May 16.

Dallas-Fort Worth's largest waterpark, Six Flags Hurricane Harbor Arlington, will officially open for the summer on Saturday, May 16, bringing a variety of new offerings for park attendees.

Chief among them will be a new Fast Lane program that allows guests to bypass standard ride wait lines. Guests who purchase a Fast Lane Pass online or at the park can redeem a wristband at any participating Fast Lane location within the park. Fast Lane wristbands are valid for use at participating rides and attractions throughout the park.

Hurricane Harbor has also undergone a series of park-wide improvements and upgraded attractions. They include ride upgrades on Sea Wolf, Raging Rapids, and the Wave Pool; a new Life Floor addition to the Splash Island play structure; new and improved shade sails throughout the park; and more.

In 2025, the park unveiled a new signature attraction, Splash Island, a 58,000 square-foot family area featuring a three-story play structure with 110 interactive water features, 17 slides, and a Texas-sized tipping bucket carrying 1,000 gallons of water.

“This season opening marks an exciting new chapter for Hurricane Harbor Arlington, with Splash Island continuing to stand out as the park’s largest and most expansive addition in recent years,” said Heather Blair, park manager, in a statement.

Season passes are now on sale, with a Gold Pass offering access to Hurricane Harbor Arlington, Six Flags Over Texas, Six Flags Fiesta Texas, Schlitterbahn Waterparks, Frontier City, and other Hurricane Harbor locations in Texas and Oklahoma.

For a limited time, guests can purchase a 2026 Gold Membership for as little as $8 a month. For more information on passes, tickets and park hours, visit sixflags.com/hurricaneharbortexas.

Hurricane Harbor Arlington is also now hiring a variety of seasonal positions. Applicants must be at least 15 years old, and positions are filled on a rolling basis as available. Interested candidates can apply online at jobs.sixflags.com.

Hurricane Harbor's opening-date announcement comes on the heels of another local waterpark chain reopening its two DFW locations this month: Hawaiian Falls in Roanoke and Mansfield will open their doors for the summer season on Saturday, May 9.
