The Buffalo Spot - Arlington

Arlington's River Legacy Park lives up to its name by striving to preserve the area's natural amenities in ways that will not only enhance them, but to also preserve them in order to pass them on to future generations. The River Legacy Foundation's various projects and endeavors work to accomplish that mission. When you visit this outdoor attraction, remember to spend time in the Living Science Center, a 12,000-square-foot facility that captures some of nature's most compelling scenes within the structure's sustainable design. The park itself is like a slice of nature tucked within Arlington's urban landscape. This park curves along the Trinity River creating a beautiful place to relax and enjoy some of North Texas' most visually stunning scenery.

Levitt Pavilion for the Performing Arts presents more than 50 free outdoor concerts a year in Downtown Arlington across from City Hall with a broad-based performance calendar of professional music artists including international, jazz, home-grown Texas Country and trail-blazing Indie artists. The Levitt spotlights and gives prominence to original artists many of whom have become Grammy Award winners.  Over 100,000 make their way to the Levitt Pavilion each year and in addition to enjoying the freshest sounds, the real focus is about building community as families, school groups, neighborhoods and people from all parts of the area to join side-by-side in a safe, fun, casual atmosphere to enjoy live music together. Enter this welcoming gathering place for free music for everyone under the stars.
