The City offers several enriching events throughout the year for
residents. Every Thursday afternoon residents can enjoy the
Colleyville Farmers Market outside of City Hall/Library in the
Village. Vendors from Colleyville and beyond feature items such
as fresh produce, artisanal breads, and more.
In the summer time the Library, in conjunction with other
departments, hosts the Summer Reading Finale. The Reading
Finale is an outdoor
celebration to wrap up the
Summer Reading Program
held every year by the
Library. This event features
children’s arts and crafts,
carnival games, and special
costume character guests
and more.
Residents can also look forward to Stars
and Guitars- a free outdoor concert
under the stars held every June. Past line-
ups have featured award winning bands,
such as Asleep at the Wheel, Vocal
Majority, and most recently John Michael
Montgomery. This celebration also
features gourmet food trucks and
fireworks! Families can enjoy snacks and
family friendly movie screenings at the
City’s Movie in the Village events. This
event allows residents to hang out in the
green space near City Hall and watch free
movies under the stars. For car
enthusiasts and families alike, the City
hosts the Colleyville Car Show, where everyone can get together to enjoy live music,
great food, and cars of all kinds.
During fall is the City’s Haunted Trails Fest, which is an outdoor event at Colleyville’s
Nature Center featuring games, crafts, a pumpkin patch, and more! Residents can launch
the holiday season at the
City Tree Lighting Ceremony. This
outdoor event is held at City Hall/Library in
the Village and features the lighting of the
city tree, photos with Santa, holiday themed
children’s games and crafts, and
performances by the local children’s choir.
These are just some of the events that help
make our City unique. The City is always
looking for new ways to bring the Colleyville
community together.
