There are dinner plans, and then there is dinner with live jazz while cruising across Lake Ray Hubbard.
On Friday, September 11, DFW Boat Ride is bringing together live music, Mediterranean food and an evening on the water for a special two-hour Jazz Dinner Cruise in Rockwall, Texas. The cruise departs at 7:15 p.m. and features the Elijah Caver Trio performing live throughout the evening.
If you have been looking for a unique date night near Dallas, a different way to celebrate a birthday or anniversary, or simply something new to do in the DFW area, this is a chance to trade the usual dinner reservation for a night on the lake.

The evening's music will come from the Elijah Caver Trio, featuring:
Drums, piano and standup bass create the kind of classic jazz trio sound that fits naturally with an evening cruise. Instead of listening from a table inside a traditional venue, guests will experience the trio while the boat moves across Lake Ray Hubbard and the evening settles over the water.
The combination of live jazz and lake views makes this more than a concert and more than a dinner cruise. The setting becomes part of the experience. Whether you're coming for the music, the food or simply an excuse to get out on the water, the Jazz Cruise offers a different kind of Friday night in DFW.
A great jazz night needs a great meal to go with it. Dinner for the September 11 cruise will be catered by Onasis Restaurant and will feature grilled chicken souvlaki, sides and dessert.
Rather than trying to coordinate dinner before or after the event, guests can enjoy their meal onboard while cruising Lake Ray Hubbard. It combines dining, entertainment and an evening activity into one experience—one of the things that makes a dinner cruise near Dallas so different from a typical night at a restaurant. The cruise is also BYOB, so guests are welcome to bring their favorite beverages to enjoy during the evening.
The Jazz Dinner Cruise is designed to give you plenty of time to settle in and enjoy the experience rather than feeling rushed from one activity to the next. As the boat cruises Lake Ray Hubbard, guests can enjoy dinner, listen to live jazz, spend time with their group and take in the changing evening views from the water.
For anyone searching for a live music cruise near Dallas, a Lake Ray Hubbard dinner cruise or simply a memorable Friday night, this event brings all three together.

Dinner and drinks will always be a classic date night, but changing the setting can completely change the experience. Instead of spending the evening at one table, you can have dinner on the water, step outside to enjoy the lake, listen to live musicians and watch Rockwall and Lake Ray Hubbard pass around you.
That makes the Jazz Cruise an easy option for:
You don't necessarily need a special occasion either. Sometimes a Friday night is reason enough.
If you're driving from Dallas or another part of DFW, give yourself more than just the cruise to enjoy Rockwall.
Spend some time exploring Historic Downtown Rockwall, grab coffee or browse the local shops, then make your way toward The Harbor Rockwall and Lake Ray Hubbard before your evening cruise. After boarding, the rest of the night's plans are taken care of: dinner, live music and two hours on the lake.
If September 11 doesn't fit your schedule, you can also explore the DFW Boat Ride cruise calendar for other experiences on Lake Ray Hubbard, including our Sunset Cruises and Night Sky Cruises.
Live jazz. Mediterranean food. Lake views. Your favorite drinks. And two hours to enjoy it all.
