8 Things to DO Downtown this February
Fort Worth Blog - Posted on 2/03/21
Fall in love with the heart of the city with our list of things to DO this February!
Plan a picnic in the park
With all of our restaurants offering to-go menus, there is no better time to plan a picnic in the park (when the weather cooperates)!
- General Worth Square: conveniently close to many of our steakhouses along Main Street.
- Burnett Park: A perfectly peaceful 3-acre park in the middle of our city! Just across the street, you can pick up a charcuterie board and picnic essentials from Neighbor's House Grocery, or a delicious slice of pizza from Picchi Pacchi.
- Fort Worth Water Gardens: While known for the mystifying water features, the Water Gardens has terraced grass areas perfect for a picnic overlooking the park.
Be sure to check out some cute photo opps with the heart in General Worth Square! *Due to inclement weather, the installation of the heart display will be postponed to the third week of February.
