This calendar contains a wide variety of events across the DFW Metroplex for all ages and interests. We hope you will use it as your central hub for planning your stay in DFW if you have travelled to view the Total Solar Eclipse or if you are a resident seeking to make the most of this once-in-a-lifetime experience.
While the majority of the events are scheduled during the weekend before the Total Eclipse, others are programmed in the months leading up to the April 8, 2024 celestial event. Learn more about the Total Eclipse DFW here.
Event options include learning opportunities to help you and your family understand what happens during the Total Solar Eclipse, how to prepare and most importantly, how to protect your eyes during the lead up to and the aftermath of the period of totality.
Other events include music, arts, sports, celebrations, museums, businesses, food, local entertainment, tours and many others.

Total Eclipse of the Park – Arlington, Texas
April 8 @ 11:00 am - 3:00 pm
FreeTotal Eclipse of the Park – Arlington, Texas
Levitt Arlington and Arlington Parks and Recreation will co-host a free eclipse-watching party and celebration on Mon., April 8 from 11 am to 3 pm on the Levitt lawn (100 W Abram St. | 76010). Event sponsors are the Arlington CVB and the Arlington Public Library. CosMc’s, an out-of-this-world beverage concept that recently landed in Texas, will join the festivities as an event partner with a mood-boosting experience that will take guests’ eclipse celebration to the next level.
Total Eclipse of the Park will feature music by DJ Rob, food trucks, and free commemorative eclipse glasses —plus, eclipse watchers will be “transported into the path of totality” via complimentary samples of CosMc’s astronomically popular menu items, branded giveaways, and special guest DJ SheReal spinning beats in sync with DJ Rob.
Eclipse watchers are welcome to bring coolers to the celebration, but glass containers are prohibited. Well-behaved pets on leashes are also welcome. Lawn chairs and blankets are highly recommended, as are comfortable shoes and an attitude for fun. Parking is free in any City of Arlington lot and other public parking spaces around downtown. (Here’s a parking map.)
