Corpus Christi is a sprawling southern city in Texas that's located on the Gulf of Mexico. It can provide you with plenty of entertainment that will light up your nightlife while you're there!

To start the night off right, you and your family can visit the ever-popular Joe's Crab Shack. You and the kids will get a charge out of this restaurant that resembles a fishing shack! This casual restaurant offers up crab cooked in every way you can think of! There are delicious sandwiches, salads, pastas, and more.

If you don't want to eat crab inside, there's a patio that you can eat on and enjoy the warm night breezes from the ocean. There's also Joe's Sand Lot, which is a play area for the kids, and there's music and dancing for everyone.

Or, if you're in the mood to taste some authentic Mexican fare, you can check out Rosita's Mexican Restaurant. Since 1985, Rosita's has been making their customers feel like they're South of the border with their delicious, homemade food. Open seven days a week, this restaurant offers up a wide selection of foods that include Fajitas, Parillada, Enchiladas, and Cabrito. There's also a Tortilla Station where you and your family can watch tortillas being made.

On the weekends, Rosita's Mexican Restaurant features live South of the border music for their customer's listening enjoyment.

Then, for some more family fun, you can visit the Cinemark Tinseltown Movies 16. Popular movies are shown there on the big screen every night. You can enjoy popcorn, soda, and a great movie with your family before embarking on some of the other entertainment that Corpus Christi offers.

Now that the kids are tucked in bed, you and your companion can hop downtown and take a seat at Dr. Rockit's Blues Bar. This casual bar offers live music that includes Rock 'n Roll, Rockabilly, and Delta Blues.

If you're looking for a quieter way to spend the evening, The Corpus Christi Concert Ballet (CCCB) can entertain you with their classical dancing. The company consists of their local talent; plus they welcome guest dancers to share the stage with them.

Some of the shows The Corpus Christi Concert Ballet has featured are The Nutcracker, Sleeping Beauty, and Carmen.

Dog lovers and wagers can take a seat every night from Tuesday to Saturday at The Corpus Christi Greyhound Track. This exciting event is said to be one of the hottest things to do in Texas! For your convenience, there are tellers and automated machines located throughout the greyhound track that will take your bets. And, you can also visit their grandstand dining room and enjoy a meal while you watch your favorite greyhound race around the track.

The Concrete Street Amphitheater is another great place to include in your nightlife schedule! There are main floor seats, festival seating, and even seats on their lawn, so you're sure to find a spot to sit and relax and enjoy the show!
