Main Street Days in Grapevine

Monday May 12, 2008

Grapevine is just full of festivals. Most weekends, there's something going on. This weekend, Main Street Days takes over downtown Grapevine. It's one of Grapevine's largest festivals and there is plenty for everyone to do -- lumberjack shows, the BMX bike shows, a white tiger exhibit, scuba diving, and other things. It's Grapevine, so the local wineries will have tents selling samples of their wines or whole bottles and cases. And, of course, a midway, arts and crafts, food, local organizations, and vendors will be there to enjoy.

Main Street in Grapevine doesn't have a whole lot of shade, so remember a hat or sunscreen. Many of the shops and boutiques stay open during the festival and have sales or special discounts, but they're often crowded. Fortunately, Saturday and Sunday will be in the 80s -- not too bad for this time of year. Admission is free on Friday before 5 p.m. After 5 p.m. and on Saturday and Sunday, admission is $7 for adults and $5 for seniors and kids.
