Sundance Square is the name of a 37-block commercial, residential, entertainment, and retail district in downtown Fort Worth, Texas. Named after the Sundance Kid in Western folklore, it is a popular place for nightlife and entertainment in Fort Worth and for tourists visiting the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex. It is owned by Fine Line Investments, a division of billionaire Ed Bass’s investment funds.
The area includes numerous hotels, restaurants, condos, lofts, shops, museums, bars, clubs, a movie theatre, performing arts, concerts, and festivals throughout the year. The former downtown Woolworth’s Building, as well as Burk Burnett Building, are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. A mural on one building commemorates the Fort Worth segment of the Chisholm Trail cattle drives of 1867-1875. The district is also the location of the Bass Performance Hall.
Its plaza is rated as one of the nation’s top outdoor gathering spots and is referred to as the “living room of Fort Worth.” Visitors to Sundance Square are encouraged to explore its murals, whimsical water fountains, courtyards, one-of-a-kind local shops, great food, live music/theater productions, the Sid Richardson Western Art Museum, and the visually stunning and acoustically perfect Bass Performance Hall.
