Looking for the best things to do in Houston this 4th of July weekend? Here are some family-friendly events and activities to add to your list for this weekend.

Break out the red, white, and blue because it's time to celebrate Independence Day! There are a plethora of amazing events happening across the city and beyond to commemorate the occasion, like the Katy Freedom Festival, Friendswood's 127th annual July 4th Celebration, and Galveston's Independence Day Parade. But that's not all that's happening: you can also play a little Family BINGO in The Woodlands on Friday night and spend Saturday night at Sugar Land's Magical Night at Sugar Land Town Square.
