But Galleria Dallas is more than just a shopping center. It is a community gathering place that brings together people from every walk of life. Every day, the center is abuzz with activities, ranging from free children’s programming, like its weekly Showtime Saturdays and monthly PALS Showtime events, to fitness activations on the newly renovated Outdoor Plaza. The shopping center celebrates local art and artists with rotating exhibits designed to engender the spirit of creativity in us all. Throughout the year, nearly 100 local arts organizations perform in the shopping center, filling its corridors with life and sound. Strolling through the shopping center often feels more like visiting a museum or cultural center than a mall. From its hand-cut Italian marble floors to the book-marked eucalyptus balustrades that define each level, Galleria Dallas exudes an elegance and thoughtfulness that celebrates its symbiotic relationship with nature and the center’s commitment to sustainable practices.
The center is at its most festive during the holiday season, when the famed ice rink is crowned with the nation’s tallest indoor Christmas tree. More people skate around that glorious tree than skate alongside the acclaimed Rockefeller Center tree. Galleria Dallas’ high-tech Santaland experience has set the standard worldwide for visits with Santa. Galleria Dallas is owned by MetLife and managed by Trademark Property Company, both of which are committed to supporting the center as a forward- thinking experiential leader that will continue to draw new fans for decades. Anchored by architectural character, a blend of retail, hospitality and culture, and bolstered by visionary management, Galleria Dallas remains a beloved Dallas landmark and is poised to maintain its place at the heart of North Texas life for years to come.
