Cool Indoor Escapes and High-Energy Entertainment in Irving
The Texas summer heat is in full swing with 105-degree forecasts, making it a good weekend to pivot your plans indoors. From the top-rated Carousel Club Burlesque to the cool confines of Globe Life Field for Rangers baseball, Irving and the wider DFW metro offer plenty of high-signal entertainment to keep you out of the sun.
Expect intense summer heat with an average high of 105 degrees and overnight lows around 84. While skies will remain overcast, the chance of rain is minimal at only 5 percent on Saturday.
If you only do one thing
Carousel Club Burlesque - Dallas · Fri 7:00 PM
This high-production burlesque show at the House of Blues offers the perfect blend of theater and culture in a climate-controlled environment, making it the top-rated entertainment choice for Friday night.
Tip: North Lamar Street can get congested near showtime, so plan to arrive at least 45 minutes early to secure your spot and grab a cocktail.
