It wouldn't be Labor Day Weekend without a white party! The Dallas Mimosa Walk is inviting people to come out in all-white attire, drink mimosas and support local businesses. The walk goes through Dallas' Deep Ellum neighborhood, and 15 local businesses are participating.

Mimosas will be complimentary with the purchase of a ticket. To end the afternoon, Goodsurf will host a pool party, so be sure to bring your swimsuit and a towel.
