    ADVENTURE IS OUT THERE

    Climb and zip through the trees at new adventure park in Arlington

    In time for spring break fun and adventures, two new, high-flying zipline and ropes courses have opened at Arlington's River Legacy Park East. The city’s parks and recreation department teamed up with Go Ape, a nationally renowned zipline and adventure park company, for the new attractions, which opened March 3.

    The new Go Ape Zipline and Adventure Park includes two ropes-adventure courses: the Treetop Adventure and Treetop Journey.

    The Treetop Adventure is a three-hour, high-ropes course with eagle-eye views of the park and Trinity River. It includes more than 60 obstacles, a Tarzan swing, and plenty of ziplines to fly through the sky 40 feet above the ground. Admission is $59.95-$64.95, and it's open for all ages (must be at least 4-feet-7 to participate, and those under age 16 must be accompanied by an adult).

    For a shorter, at-your-own-pace experience, the Treetop Journey packs in just as much fun as the Adventure in a one-hour ropes course with half the obstacles and two ziplines just 20 feet in the air. Admission is $39.95, and it's open for all ages (must be at least 3-feet-3 to participate, and those under age 6 must be accompanied by an adult).

    There's also a new range for outdoor axe-throwing. With four lanes of targets and a variety of games and challenges, visitors can compete with their friends to determine who’s the best axe-thrower. The activity is suitable for ages 10 and up and participants aged 15 and under must be supervised by an adult. Cost is $19.95 per hour.

    Reservations are recommended, at goape.com.

    This is the second Go Ape Adventure Park in Dallas-Fort Worth, there's also one in Plano at the Oak Point Park and Nature Preserve.

    Go Ape CEO Vernon West says in a release that he is thrilled to bring more “adventurous experiences” to Arlington's residents of all ages and skill levels.

    The Treetop Adventure features over 60 obstacles, while the Treetop Journey has 30 obstacles.

    “Our instructors will provide a tree-mendous experience for all guests, giving them a unique and fun adventure with the highlight being a 550-foot zipline over the Trinity River,” he says.

    Arlington Parks and Recreation director James Orloski adds that he can’t wait to see adventure-seekers smiling as they “soar through the skies” with any of the new activities.

    "Partnering with Go Ape, the premier zipline and ropes course vendor in the U.S., is an exciting opportunity to provide a thrilling outdoor experience for Arlington residents and visitors alike and gives us the chance to showcase our parks system from a new vantage point," Orloski says.

    Find the park at 1601 NE Green Oaks Blvd., Arlington.

    The Joke Has Landed

    New comedy club at Toyota Music Factory in Irving gets set for laughs

    This is the fifth Punch Line location.

    It's almost time for Punch Line Irving to open its doors, and Dave Chappelle is at the ready. The famous comedian will christen the new comedy club with four sold-out shows on December 17 and 18, but there's plenty more funny business in store for 2026.

    First announced in November, this is Punch Line's fifth location — and second in Texas, the first opened in Houston in 2024 — and it's taking up residence at the Toyota Music Factory. The 240-seat club plans to host more than 350 shows and private events annually, featuring a blend of high-wattage celebrity and homegrown talent.

    Its decor nods to the brand's belief that comedy is a sport, with feature wall showcasing punching bags and boxing bells signed by "heavy hitter" performers.

    The menu also echoes the theme, with such cocktails as the Bellringer (bourbon, lemonade, and Liquid Death half-and-half iced tea), Ringside Ranch Water (blanco tequila, hibiscus, lime, and soda), and the Espresso All-Star, their take on the espresso martini. Food includes Punch Line favorites like the Mic Drop Burger, Punch Line Nachos, and Homemade Punch Pop Tarts in bourbon apple or strawberry cream.

    There is also a second, more flexible space outside the main showroom called The Callback Bar that's designed to host smaller performances, as well as a furnished patio.

    This is the fifth Punch Line location.

    The talent gets treated as well as the audience, with a private comics lounge in place of a traditional dressing room. Designed as a shared gathering space, it sports a custom media wall showing the live-show feed, a dressing table, a private ensuite restroom, and a hospitality station.

    Punch Line makes it a point to support the local comedy scene, and its Irving location will be no exception. Twenty-five cents from each ticket at participating shows benefits Comedy Gives Back, a nonprofit organization providing financial grants and resources to stand-up comedians in need. The club also hosted its first open mic on December 9 to welcome the community, with participating comics donating nonperishable items to the North Texas Food Bank.

    Don't fret if you didn't snag tickets to Dave Chappelle — big names like Leslie Jones, Tone Bell, Pete Holmes, and Christina P. all have shows scheduled in the first few months of 2026 and tickets are on sale now.
