Everyone who drives a cool car wants to show off their ride at the best destinations around town. There are a number of popular hot spots in Houston, Texas where you can make sure your car is admired while enjoying a fun night out. Take your ride to any of these top choices to enjoy showing off your car.
Venue Houston
A nightclub and event space with a reputation for high-end clientele, Venue Houston is one of the best places to show off an eye-catching ride. Venue Houston is one of the few upscale nightclubs in the Houston area, which means those driving up in a car worthy of attention will be seen by elite members of the city’s social scene.
There are four distinctly styled private seating areas in Venue Houston that all feature lush furnishings, fashionable decor, and plenty of multimedia entertainment. Every Friday night Venue features a “Latin Grooves” theme with live music and dancing. Saturday nights are the “Main Event” with hip hop and house music. It is recommended you call ahead to make a reservation, and there is a dress code in place to preserve the glamorous atmosphere of the club.
Grooves of Houston
Another excellent Houston hot spot where you can take your car is Grooves of Houston, a combination of restaurant, nightclub, and private event venue. Celebrities, both local and visitors, can often be found either on an official appearance at Grooves or as a guest enjoying the Grooves experience.
The nightclub and bar aspects of Grooves capture the warm and intimate atmosphere of an exclusive lounge, with two standard bars and a satellite wine bar. You can also indulge in fine dining while at Grooves of Houston. Private party events are catered to with specialized menus featuring some of the best cuisine in the city. What makes Grooves as popular as it is, however, is the entertainment. Live music, comedic performances, and top-notch DJs create an atmosphere of fun and celebration.
SLAB Parade and Family Festival
If nightclubs aren't your thing, you can show off your ride while attending the annual Houston SLAB Parade and Family Festival. The acronym “SLAB” stands for “slow, low, and banging” and is used as slang for the kind of customized vehicles made popular by pop culture, particularly hip hop culture. Usually vintage or antique American-made sedans, SLABs are decked out with custom tire rims, unique interior and exterior upgrades. Houston’s SLAB Parade showcases customized SLAB cars and similarly styled bicycles for large audiences of the parade and festival’s attendants. Families can spend an entire day admiring the cars and enjoying the festival entertainment.
The best places to take your head-turning ride in Houston not only give you the opportunity to show off your car but also give you ways to enjoy yourself once you’ve arrived. Drive up slowly and take a moment to soak in the attention you and your ride receive.
