By Steven, Refind Realty

Dallas isn’t short on things to do—but sometimes you just need the best options without scrolling through endless event lists. Whether you’re new to the area or looking to fall in love with Dallas all over again, I’ve picked three standout things to do this weekend.

If you’re thinking about buying or relocating and want to explore what life looks like in Dallas, these are great ways to get a real feel for the city.

1. Stroll the Dallas Farmers Market

Location: 920 S Harwood St, Dallas, TX
Time: 9 AM to 5 PM (Saturday & Sunday)

The Dallas Farmers Market is more than just produce. You’ll find handmade goods, food trucks, local art, live music, and some of the best tacos downtown. It's family-friendly, pet-friendly, and full of people who love this city.

Why go: Great vibe, perfect weather, and a fun way to explore the downtown core without the crowds.

2. Catch a Rooftop Movie at Sundown at Granada

Location: 3520 Greenville Ave, Dallas, TX
Time: Friday and Saturday nights after sunset

One of my favorite ways to unwind is with a rooftop movie, and Sundown at Granada never disappoints. The food is solid, drinks are cold, and the views of Lower Greenville give you that relaxed Dallas energy you can’t fake.

Why go: It’s casual, it’s outdoors, and it’s the kind of spot that makes you say, “I could live here.”

3. Explore the Trails at White Rock Lake

Location: 8300 E Lawther Dr, Dallas, TX
Time: All day, sunrise to sunset

White Rock Lake is one of Dallas’s best outdoor spots. Whether you’re biking, walking, or just sitting by the water, it’s a peaceful break from the city noise. Bring a coffee, your dog, or a friend and just relax.

Why go: Beautiful views, fresh air, and a true local favorite.
