Also noteworthy for 2026 is the expansion of the Levitt Youth Spotlight program, made possible through support from Texas Trust Credit Union, the program\u2019s first-ever presenting sponsor. Now in its third year, Youth Spotlight will feature more young performers and expanded opportunities, with student artists from Arlington and other areas in DFW taking the stage ahead of opening acts.\u00a0 Performances are designed to complement the evening\u2019s lineup, creating an enriched concert experience for Levitt guests while giving promising young performers the chance to gain professional experience.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Opening acts throughout the season are part of the Levitt\u2019s ongoing Share the Stage initiative, which highlights emerging artists from DFW and across Texas and reflects the Levitt\u2019s ongoing commitment to supporting the regional music ecosystem.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re excited to welcome a mix of first-time Levitt artists and returning favorites to the stage this season,\u201d said Letatia Teykl, executive director of Levitt Pavilion Arlington. \u201cWe\u2019re also proud to celebrate the fifth installments of our Juneteenth and Hispanic Heritage celebrations, which have become well-attended, meaningful traditions for our community, and to expand our Youth Spotlight program to create even more opportunities for young artists to take the stage.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019s a lot of momentum and anticipation as we head toward our 20th anniversary season next year, Teykl continued. \u201cWhether you come with a group or on your own, the Levitt is a place where everyone can feel at home and have a good time\u2014stop by the information booth, say hello and learn how to make the most of your visit.\u201d<\/p>\n
Looking ahead, Levitt Arlington will also receive nearly $2 million in funding to support significant upgrades to its sound, visual and security infrastructure, with work expected to begin this fall\u2014an investment designed to fortify and elevate the Levitt experience for the next generation.<\/p>\n
