McKinney is buzzing with excitement as the city dives into the first weekend of June. The weather is starting off warm and sunny, with highs expected near 87 degrees and just a slight breeze—perfect for spending time outdoors or enjoying one of the city’s many lively events.

All eyes are on the downtown square as the Texas Music Revolution kicks off its biggest festival yet. Beginning today, June 6, and running through Saturday, June 7, historic downtown McKinney is transformed into a multi-stage celebration of Americana and country music. Today’s headliners include the soulful Corina Grove at 4 PM and the powerhouse Taylor Hunnicutt at 6 PM, both promising performances that blend indie spirit with classic Texas grit. Later tonight, fans can catch Dawes on the Burress Injury Law Main Stage, along with local favorites Silverada and Sour Bridges. Tomorrow, don’t miss Flatland Cavalry and The Wilder Blue closing out the weekend’s musical marathon. Tickets are still available, ranging from $59 to $299 for those wanting to join in the fun and discover new artists redefining the scene.

Sports fans are also in for a treat as local high school teams cap off their seasons. While official scores for games played last night are rolling in, there’s a buzz around the McKinney North Bulldogs soccer team, who secured a close 2-1 victory over their rivals at the final whistle Thursday evening. Summer training camps are right around the corner as teams prepare for the fall season.

If you’re headed outside for the festivals or a morning run, breathe easy—today’s air quality is rated good, with low levels of ozone and only moderate pollen counts, mostly from grasses. Allergy sufferers may want to keep an eye out, but there’s little risk of a sneeze disrupting festival fun.

Runners and walkers can lace up early tomorrow for the Trinity Falls Trail Day 5K, with the race winding through scenic parkland from 8 AM to noon. Not a runner? Browse local jewelry, art, and crafts at the Millhouse Makers Market at the Cotton Mill, set for June 14.

And don’t forget, the city is headed to the polls tomorrow for the McKinney mayoral runoff, where two candidates with competing visions for the city’s future are set for a decisive vote. Whether you’re reveling in the music, the outdoors, or the thrill of local democracy, McKinney is the place to be this weekend.
