If you're a fan of natural wonders from around the world, then the Dallas World Aquarium is the place for you to visit if you want to experience them all in one place. Once inside, you'll embark on a world tour of the Earth's oceans and its unique bodies of water through exhibits and attractions. Encounter the bird's-eye view of the Secrets of the River Rainforest Exhibit, filled with birds, mammals, amphibians, and reptiles all living in harmony. Then check out the special South Africa exhibit that will transport you to the exotic land of Madagascar, where the permanent exhibits include fish, jellyfish, and coral from around the world, and visitors can even walk through a tunnel that runs through one of the large tanks, where you'll see sharks and manta rays swimming about.

If you're a fan of Bluegrass, the Bloomin' Bluegrass Festival is an event you won't want to miss. With two stages and two full days of traditional and progressive Bluegrass, as well as Americana and country sounds, there's something for everyone. And if you're lucky, you might even stumble upon one of the impromptu jam sessions that happen throughout the festival grounds. These jam sessions are always organic and full of talented musicians eager to share their love of Bluegrass. But that's not all the festival has to offer. You'll also have the opportunity to take up-close photos of the beautiful varieties grown in Farmers Branch. And of course, no festival would be complete without delicious food options. You can indulge in local favorites like Mex-Mex, corny dogs, roasted corn, cheeseburgers, hot dogs, and more. And if you're looking for something to wash it all down, there's a great selection of premium and local craft beers, wines, and frozen wineries to choose from.
