Fair Park Fiesta!, a Latin-themed market, is coming to the Esplanade and the Automobile Building at Fair Park on Saturday, July 20 from 5 p.m. until 10:30 p.m. This free community event will feature a night market with local goods, live music and dance performances, lawn games, art making and a roller rink inside the air-conditioned Automobile Building. Skate rentals and parking at Gate 3 are free all night. Fair Park Fiesta is supported in part by the City of Dallas Office of Cultural Affairs. Fair Park Fiesta! is among several new initiatives in the planned transformation of Fair Park into a year-round destination. The event is produced by Fair Park First — the nonprofit organization created to oversee the management and stewardship of Fair Park — in partnership with Spectra, Biederman Redevelopment Ventures and In the City for Good.
