Carrollton is gearing up for its ninth annual TEXFest, a celebration of all things Texas, slated for March 2 in the heart of its Historic Downtown. Revelers can anticipate a spread of local craft beer, gastronomic delights, and a diverse lineup of musicians serenading the crowd from Carrollton Square, according to the City of Carrollton, Texas.
This event promises a Texas-sized array of fun from 3-9 p.m. with an impressive flock of over 20 regional breweries wetting the whistle of attendees with offerings like 3 Nations Brewing, DEBC, and the popular Rahr & Sons – all this plus a chance to grab a commemorative TEXFest beer glass. The good times will keep rolling as the music stage ignites with performers like Ralyn Gayle and King George capturing the Texas spirit, while Clayton Mullen's recent album, 'Where the Time Goes,' brings more than just a toe-tapping vibe, marking him as a standout with over 10 million streams under his belt.
Apart from the pours and tunes, TEXFest will also serve up an array of eats ranging from Corny Dogs to Waffly Delicious LLC, ensuring that foodies leave as satisfied as the beer connoisseurs. All the while, a rodeo of vendors will line the streets, flaunting everything from hand-embroidered accessories at the Art by the Andes tent to freaky Ferments' craft hot sauce.
For those less inclined toward the hubbub, TEXFest has thoughtfully provided a Sensory Friendly Break Area for individuals needing a respite from the festive fervor, equipped with all manner of calming accouterments. A peaceful reprieve from the lively bustle outside, which includes activities like mechanical bull rides and two-stepping. Prospective sponsors take note: joining forces with TEXFest presents a unique opportunity to hitch your brand to this much-loved local wagon – previous sponsors like Raising Cane’s Chicken Fingers and Carrollton Regional Medical Center can surely attest to the benefits.
