SUMMARY:Sunset Soiree at Kaleidoscope Park
DESCRIPTION:When Kaleidoscope Park officially opens on Saturday\, Oct. 5\, it will be the culmination of years of hard work and planning by the Kaleidoscope Park Foundation and its volunteers\, as well as its partners at Communities Foundation of Texas\, the City of Frisco and HALL Park.

Guests at the ticketed event will have the first official chance to view Janet Echelman’s magnificent Butterfly Rest Stop\, the largest and most important piece of public art to debut in North Texas in years. \nIn keeping with the bridge that Frisco has built between art and technology\, the evening will end with a drone show presented by North Texas’ Sky Elements. \nTickets for Sunset Soirée are $150 per person and can be purchased here. For more information on becoming a sponsor or supporter of the Kaleidoscope Park Foundation\, visit KaleidoscopePark.com/support. \nThe six-acre Kaleidoscope Park is located near the Dallas North Tollway at Warren Parkway in Frisco\, Texas\, and in neighboring distance to The Star\, Stonebriar Centre\, Legacy West\, The Shops at Legacy\, The Boardwalk and Granite Park. \nThe evening’s program will take place on the Arts Lawn with stage and sound provided by Big D Party Rentals.
