Upcoming Downtown Events
It’s not by chance that downtown Georgtown is a destination for residents and visitors alike. Through concentrated efforts and careful planning, the heart of Georgetown continues to improve and thrive, growing each year as the bustling city center it was intended to be.
Georgetown’s Cultural District is a 40-block area of downtown which contains the Williamson County Courthouse as well as more than 100 restaurants, wineries, shops, and galleries. Arts and cultural facilities anchor the Cultural district, including the Palace Theatre, the Georgetown Public Library, the Georgetown Arts Center, and the Williamson Museum.
With Georgetown’s rich history, beautiful art, and cultural elements all conveniently located in one central area, it’s no wonder Georgetown is known as the Most beautiful Town Square in Texas.
These events are open to the public.
