Festivals

GOTEXAN Wine, Food & Art Festival took place at The Shack at Panther Island Pavilion over the past weekend on Saturday, June 5, 2021.

 

The weather held off and brought the sun for a good portion of the festival for event-goers to enjoy! Festival entrance we free for patrons to listen to a full day of live music taking place inside of The Shack, as well as have the chance to support local food trucks and artists.

 

Those that decided to purchase the wine tasting tickets received a commemorative wine glass along with two samples from each of the twenty wineries present at the festival. Wineries came from all over the state of Texas for the chance to participate in this great event.

 

Thanks to all that attended and helped make this event a great success!

 

Voted #1 Festival in USA Today, the Water Lantern Festival returned to Fort Worth, TX on Saturday, April 10, 2021.

This family-friendly event allowed people from all different backgrounds to gather and celebrate together near the river at Panther Island Pavilion. Visitors were able to create their own personalized rice lanterns to symbolize moments that have occurred in their lives in the past as well as manifest what they would like to happen in the future. Once the sun set, the lanterns were released one by one to float in the Trinity River and to gather amongst the rest.

The night didn’t end with that, there was one special couple that visited the event from Sherman, Tx. Bryce had a special message displayed on his lantern for his then-girlfriend Kami, “Will you marry me?” After she replied with a yes, they released their lantern together into the river! Congratulations to both Bryce & Kami!
