BY // 08.31.20

Labor Day weekend has arrived. If you’re still in limbo about whether to go out or stay in, no worries. There are plenty of options in Dallas this year that suit both scenarios.

Dallas Labor Day Events

All Labor Day weekend (Saturday through Monday), Virgin Hotels Dallas is hosting Mats & Mimosas at their rooftop Pool Club. Led by Black Swan Yoga instructor Alondra Smith, the class costs $30 per person and includes a 45 minute yoga class and mimosa after class. Bring your own mat and enjoy the fresh air on the spaced out fourth-floor deck.

 

JAXON – Mint Julep (Frozen and Rocks)

On Saturday, JAXON Texas Kitchen & Beer Garden is hosting a Kentucky Derby watch party starting at 10:30 am. The event will feature $5 frozen and regular mint juleps on the expansive, socially distanced patio. Come wearing your hats and blazers to cheer on your favorite horse if you wish.

The Rustic will also be having a celebration on Saturday from 10 am to close featuring $5 frozen drinks all day and free music on the open-aired patio.
