First Fridays Westchase Event Extended

The popular outdoor event will continue through November.

In the two years since First Fridays Westchase launched, it's become one of the most popular events in the neighborhood. Now, FF goers will be able to take advantage of the fun for at least one additional Friday this year.

The event, which was usually extends from May to October, will now extend to November.

"The weather has been much warmer this year," said Dung To, general manager for World of Beer Westchase. "We wanted to see if families were still up to coming out even though it's a bit cooler. We love that outdoor vibe!"
