Music

The Fort Worth music scene is filled with a variety of different genres. Swing by Billy Bob's Texas, the world's largest honky-tonk, to catch performances by some of the best in country music or two-step the night away. Looking for something a little more laid back? Head to the White Elephant Saloon, one of the marquee establishments in the Stockyards District, to hear some live tunes and sip cold brews.

During the summer months, head to the Near Southside for First Fridays on the Green at Magnolia. While in downtown's Sundance Square, check out the patio at 8.0 Bar and Restaurant, located at Houston and 3rd Street, as they play host to live music most nights. If you're into jazz and blues, then Scat Jazz Lounge the place to be! Scat, located in an alleyway across from the Chisholm Trail Mural, requires an elevator entrance as you head to the basement hang out. 

Visit the West 7th District and surrounding area for more live music venues including Lola's Saloon, Capital Bar, Magnolia Motor Lounge, the Pour House and Fred's Texas. The Camp Bowie District hosts the annual Fort Worth Music Festival every fall which highlights some of the best local and national talent.
