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

Is it the official last weekend of summer or the kick-off to fall? However you look at Labor Day weekend, one thing is for sure: it's always a good one! The long weekend grants us a little more time to check the remaining items off our Ultimate Summer Bucket List before the official transition to fall. Celebrate Labor Day at Waterway Square early on Sunday with an evening of live music, pie-eating contests, and more. On Monday, we recommend heading to Lone Star Flight Museum for some Labor Day Fun during the day and to Friendswood's 8th Annual Old Fashioned Ice Cream Social during the evening. 

Don’t miss our Fall Day Trips for Houston Families, our Back to School Guide, and our 30 Outdoor Activities in Nature for Kids for Hands-on Outdoor Learning.
