Nothing says fall in Arlington like a crisp autumn evening on the lawn at the Levitt Pavilion! With cooler temperatures at last arriving in North Texas, it’s the perfect time to grab a lawn chair and head downtown for free live music. The Levitt\u2019s October calendar has something for just about every taste, from Latin rhythms and Texas country to classic rock and pop, plus a star-studded season finale and spooky Shakespeare over Halloween weekend.<\/p>\n

Abram St., across from Arlington City Hall, with free parking in City of Arlington and other public lots throughout downtown. Although there\u2019s no such thing as a bad seat on the lawn, early arrival for events with higher-profile artists is recommended.\u00a0<\/p>\n
