Park After Dark: Dancing, Games, and Cool Fun at Discovery Green

Make the most of summer evenings at Park After Dark, happening every Thursday in June at Discovery Green! As the sun goes down, the park lights up – literally! We’re keeping the fountains and lights on late, so you can enjoy the summer fun.

Discovery Green’s beloved Rocket Dog art cart will be onsite with games and toys for rent, and the playground will be buzzing. Freshly painted picnic tables double as game boards, so make sure to bring your chess or checkers and challenge a friend – or roll out a blanket and relax on the lawn. Food trucks and local vendors will be serving up sweet treats and tasty eats all evening.

And once the sun goes down? The dancing begins:
• June 5 & 19: Line dancing with the one and only Gretchen “The Legend” Jean kicks off at 7 PM, followed by a high-energy performance from DJ Boom Boom Williams.
• June 12 & 26: Salsa night with Gerisha Figueroa and Eleda Dance Company -- Learn a few steps, then dance the night away!
Come see why Discovery Green is called “Houston’s backyard” this summer at Park After Dark.
