Which night to go out

Saturday is the busiest night in Dallas — 131 of the 512 dated events we list fall on a Saturday, about 26%, with Friday next at 116. Midweek is thinner, which usually means shorter queues and cheaper entry rather than nothing happening.

  • Monday — 22 events
  • Tuesday — 48 events
  • Wednesday — 44 events
  • Thursday — 75 events
  • Friday — 116 events
  • Saturday — 131 events

What a night out costs

Typical entry runs about $25.23, with most tickets between $12.13 and $31.39. We also list 26 free events. Those figures come from the sellers' own price ranges and move with demand — a lot of listings use dynamic pricing, so treat them as a guide and check the ticket page for the live number.

Planning the night

  • Start times below are the venue's own local time, not yours — worth checking if you're travelling in.
  • Age policy, door times and ID requirements are set by the venue and aren't in our feed. The seller's event page carries them.
  • Line-ups change. For multi-act bills, the running order is usually announced close to the date.
  • What's on tonight in Dallas and this weekend are the fastest ways in if you're deciding now.
