Freedom Over Texas will feature performances by Sawyer Brown, Clay Walker, Blanco Brown, Walker County, Step Rideau, and Houston Latin All Stars. and will be capped off with a musically choreographed, “Texas-sized” fireworks finale.

This year, guests will celebrate more than America’s Freedom at the city’s signature Independence Day event, as this year marks the 60th anniversary of NASA Johnson Space Center’s presence in Houston. Shell Freedom Over Texas has partnered with Johnson Space Center to bring an exclusive Space City Experience featuring its storied history and upcoming Artemis missions to the Moon and beyond.

The signature area will include an opportunity to be up close and personal with NASA astronauts, robotic demonstrations, virtual reality field trips to the International Space Station, the Space Exploration Vehicle, Destination Station trailer, and other NASA exhibits and activities.

Freedom Over Texas will feature a unique non-profit component that joins forces with the Houston Food Bank to help fill an extraordinary demand in our regional community. The event will donate a percentage of food and beverage sales to the Houston Food Bank.
