Things to do in Dallas

Shop Dallas style

With a style all its own, Dallas Fort Worth is a haven for fashion mavens. Whether you’re in the market for custom-made cowboy boots or designer duds, Highland Park Village – the country’s first planned shopping centre – is a top choice. For antiques, vintage clothing and vinyl records, explore the Oak Hill or Deep Ellum districts. And of course, don’t skip Downtown Dallas, where the original Neiman Marcus department store has set the benchmark for luxury shopping since it opened in 1907.

Tuck into authentic Texas-style BBQ

When it comes to what to eat in Dallas, the answer is always barbecue – or “BBQ,” as you’ll see proudly scrawled on signs and menus across the state. The Northern region of Texas is famous for its hickory-smoked brisket, spicy sausage, burnt ends and tender, fall-off-the-bone pork ribs, typically served with a side of potato salad, tangy coleslaw and corn on the cob. BBQ enthusiasts can also find Western and Southern Texas spots specialising in mesquite wood cooking, molasses-based sauces and Mexican barbacoa.

Catch a game at AT&T Stadium

There’s no better place to experience the nation’s passion for American football than at AT&T Stadium. As one of the largest sports complexes in the country, this colossal Dallas attraction dominates the skyline. If you’re visiting in autumn or winter, snag a ticket to see the Dallas Cowboys – affectionately known as “America’s Team” – at their home stadium. Can’t get a seat? Not to worry. The stadium hosts concerts, basketball, soccer matches and more throughout the year.
