Labor Day is coming up, and the Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden is gearing up for a family fun weekend to help neighbors celebrate.
From Saturday, Aug. 31, to Monday, Sept. 2, admission to the Children’s Adventure Garden will be included in general garden admission, as part of a donation from the William G. Kelley factory.Â
On Sunday, Sept. 1, families will be able to interact with an ornithologist — or bird expert — and the birds themselves at the Martin Rutchik concert stage from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m. Neighbors can see the birds up close and witness flight shows while learning about flight mechanics. There will also be a petting zoo each day from 9 to 11 a.m.Â
There will be live music daily, including performances by the ‘60s Pop Band on Saturday from 2 to 4 p.m. and classic rock band Ashmore from 2 to 4 p.m. on Monday.Â
Ticketing information can be found on the Arboretum’s website.
