November in Houston is officially here, and this city does not do quiet months. 🍂
Concerts, Texans and Rockets nights, festivals, holiday lights, and three dinner spots worth booking. I rounded up the best things to do in Houston this November so you don’t have to. Save this and send it to whoever you’re making plans with.
A few on my list:
🎤 Chelsea Handler at 713 Music Hall, Nov 21
🏈 Texans vs. Colts, Thursday night at Reliant Stadium, Nov 19
🪔 Diwali Festival of Lights at Discovery Green, Nov 14
✨ Galaxy Lights at Space Center Houston, starting Nov 14
🥩 Turner’s Cut, where we tried Australian Wagyu for the first time (and the cheesecake tastes like a Dreamsicle)
And slide 7 is a little personal. 🎄 This year we’re doing our tree old-school. No theme, no ribbon. Everyone picked ornaments that mean something to us in 2026, and on Thanksgiving we’re making a few of our own. Year one of many.
Shopping tip: Hobby Lobby’s Christmas decor is 50% off right now, ornaments included. 🛒
We’re putting our tree up early this year, so settle this for me: when does your tree go up? Before Thanksgiving, after, or December only? ⬇️
