The McKinney event calendar, without an agency taking a cut.

The venue corridor around 380 and up toward Anna and Melissa has Bella Donna Chapel, Stone Crest, The Grand Hotel, and dozens of barn, chapel, and estate venues booking weddings every weekend from spring through late fall. TUPPS Brewery and the McKinney brewery scene book private events and public activations, and the historic McKinney square runs festivals and corporate offsites. Special Event Staff is a free way for McKinney bartenders, servers, and setup staff to see and apply to weekend wedding calls directly from the caterers and bar programs staffing them.
