Local Guide to Addison, Texas
Aside from the restaurants and hotels, here are some of Addison’s special attractions:
Cavanaugh Flight Museum
The Cavanaugh Flight Museum is one of the finest flight museums in the nation and a must see attraction for aviation buffs. Aircraft from as far back as World War I are on display and many of them are still airworthy – the Cavanaugh Museum is not just a wonderfully complete aircraft museum, it is located at the Addison Airport, has a working aircraft hanger and has some of the finest aircraft mechanics in the country to keep the aircraft airworthy. Yes, you an even arrange to take a 30-minute flight in one of their antique ‘warbirds.’ Call (972) 380-8800 to book a flight or purchase a ride gift certificate.
Addison Circle Park
Addison Circle Park is one of the largest outdoor event venues in the country. There are many festivals and gatherings held here throughout the year.
Water Tower Theatre
Addison’s Water Tower Theatre is a great regional theatre with a line-up of productions by a professional cast that make the trip to a downtown theatre unnecessary.
Dallas Galleria Mall
The Dallas Galleria Mall has more than 200 up-scale stores in a multi-level mall format; some of the best names in merchandising are found here. Lots of restaurants and a great ice skating rink right in the middle of it all.
Pete’s Dueling Piano Bar
Sing along to classic Rock ‘N Roll at Pete’s Dueling Piano Bar. More fun than the law should allow!
The Improv
Addison is the proud home of one of the 15 Improv Comedy Clubs around the United States. Not much more needs to be said about that except, go ahead and laugh out loud . . . not that you’ll be able to stop yourself.
