Party in the Park Presented by PwC
Party in the Park is a celebration of everything that makes Klyde Warren Park a transformative force in Dallas.
Thursday, October 8, 2026 | 6 - 10 PM
Join us for Klyde Warren Park’s annual fundraiser!
We are honored to have Laurie Sands Harrison as honorary chair, with her children Caroline Harrison Loehr, Francis Harrison and Bailey Harrison, and their spouses Gavin Loehr and Manuel Brito.
Last year, nearly 1,000 of Dallas’ most dedicated philanthropists, corporate leaders, and public officials came together to raise $1.1 million in support of free programming and daily maintenance at the Park.
This year’s event promises to be just as spectacular, featuring:
Hall wines at every table
Breathtaking décor by Todd Events
Dancing under the stars to Emerald City Band
And a few exciting surprises!
Klyde Warren Park, managed by the Woodall Rodgers Park Foundation, spans 5.4 acres and welcomes more than two million visitors annually. The Park offers more than 1,300 free programs each year—made possible through the generosity of donors like you.
Mark your calendar and get ready for an unforgettable evening in support of Dallas’ most beloved green space!
DON’T MISS OUT!
This event always sells out — reserve your seats to Party in the Park now.
