Come February, thousands of runners and spectators will migrate to Sam Houston Park for the Houston Rhythm and Blues Half Marathon and 5K. Like many marathons and 5K races, this event raises money for local charities and entertains runners with postrace festivities. What distinguishes this particular race from other races, however, is the route: it's lined with R & B bands from throughout Texas. Whether you're running for fun or shooting for a PR, dressing up is encouraged, and prizes will be awarded to participants with the best R & B costumes.
Live! at Bayou Place sets visitors loose on a buffet of diversions including entertainment venues, restaurants, and bars. Sundance Cinemas blends a menu of pizzas and sandwiches with film showings, filling moviegoers’ mouths with food to prevent them from shouting out bawdy limericks during love scenes. Diners slice into fine seafood and steaks at Samba Grill or stuff mouths with fresh sushi at The Blue Fish. The Verizon Wireless Theater hosts Live Nation shows that allow music fans to gaze at their favorite bands and performers without having to put a Bono mask on the beagle. Nightlife devotees cap off the late hours with jaunts to take in a bull ride at PBR Houston, absorb the summery atmosphere at Shark Bar, or revel in Chapel Spirits' 3,000-square-foot expanse, which encompasses a private DJ and glass-enclosed patio.
Presented by the Strictly Street Salsa dance studio, El Festival de la Salsa brings Houston’s annual spring of salsa to a celebratory close with hours of performances by live salsa bands, including the Houston All Stars, Salsa Orchestra, and the Latin Jazz Ensemble. As many as 5,000 fans and dancers gather to swish and sway to the music, or gatherers can pause to take in tributes to famed salsa great such as Celia Cruz and Ruben Blades. While performers coax sensual beats from their instruments on the main stage, a kid-friendly zone provides structured fun and play for tykes whose attention might escape the rhythm’s hold every now and then.
