Houston's weekend calendar is bursting at the seams with activities, from dinosaurs and rodeos to kolaches and concerts. For families, 'Jurassic World: The Exhibition' is a must-see, opening tomorrow at Katy Mills and offering an up-close-and-personal experience with lifelike dinosaur replicas. According to the Houston Chronicle, the exhibit, inspired by the hit films, is sure to thrill both kiddos and adults with beasts like the T-Rex stalking their prey.

Turn to River Oaks for a more peaceful affair where the Azalea Trail, which runs through Sunday, invites guests to peruse lush gardens and grand homes, as the Houston Chronicle notes. And for adrenaline junkies, Sam Houston Race Park is set to sorely disrupt expectations with ostrich and camel racing on March 9 and 10.

The city's food enthusiasts have something to look forward to as well — the 6th Annual Kolache Factory Dash on Saturday offers a chance to dash and dine on Texas' beloved pastry, as Houston on the Cheap reports. For those who crave a taste of nostalgia, the site also highlights the Broadway hit 'Beetlejuice', which is bringing the darkly comic world of Tim Burton to the Hobby Center on March 9.

Adding to the weekend's musical offerings, EDM group Major Lazer is set to blow the roof off NRG Park with their Rodeo Houston debut, while the beloved Spanish pop rockers Hombres G will get fans moving at the Smart Financial Centre. And let's not forget the rodeo's Go Tejano Day on March 10, with Norteño band Los Tigres del Norte headlining an event packed with music and traditional Mexican culture, the Houston Chronicle adds.

For those looking to shop or swap, Traders Village is host to events throughout the month, including a huge garage sale earlier in March, a car enthusiast's dream with the Auto Swap coming on March 16-17, and a Quinceañera Expo to cap it off on March 24, according to the Houston on the Cheap. Each event promises to bring a unique Houstonian blend of community, fun and celebration.
