Weekend of Mar 27 - Mar 29, 2026
WEEKEND SNAPSHOT
Warm and breezy with highs near 82°F and lows around 66°F. Mostly sunny Friday, transitioning to partly cloudy by Sunday.
Major downtown congestion expected due to the triple-threat of the Bayou City Art Festival, Astros Home Opener, and NCAA South Regional games.
⚡ If You Only Do One Thing
Bayou City Art Festival Downtown
Saturday & Sunday, 10:00 AM - 6:00 PM
"It is Houston’s premier outdoor gallery featuring 250+ national artists. While it requires a commute downtown, it offers a high-value mix of world-class art, skyline views, and culinary demos that only happens once a year."
PRO TIP: Avoid the $40 private lot gouging by parking at the Heritage Society lot or using the METRO Green Line from the Theater District.
