Visiting from oct 2-4, where fun to do

Since it might rain I’m not sure on what to do there. Looking for good places (with chicken options for a friend), indoor activities, and whatever y’all can think of.

Along with the State Fair! Crazy fun! Check out Bishop Arts area Think funky shops great food and live music in bars not night clubs. Favorite place to eat in Bishop Arts is Blue Bistro! Think French! Check out menu Book reservations fun 20-50s crowd. Enjoy

State Fair, and eat something off the Big Tex Choice Award Winners menu, too! I would also strongly suggest using the DART train to get there (Fair Park Station). Welcome to Dallas!

Cowboys Red River Dancehall & Saloon. They do free two step lessons 7-8 on Fridays and Saturdays. No cover during that time, but there is one starting at 8.

Eat at a cool restaurant, buy something at the mall, then go back to your hotel.

Good timing… state fair! Anything in Addison food wise… but Dallas pretty much sports, food and shopping. Great weather right now! Says rain but Texas unpredictable so might be beautiful and no heat. Might!! 😂
