Toyota Center sits on the western edge of downtown, a short walk or quick ride from EaDo. It's home to the Houston Rockets and one of the busiest concert arenas in the country. Whether you're there for basketball or a headline tour, here's how to make a night of it.
Rockets games
The NBA season runs from October into spring, and a Rockets game is a great excuse for a Houston weekend. Buy tickets ahead for marquee opponents, and arrive early to catch the pre-game atmosphere around the arena.
Concerts and events
Toyota Center hosts major touring acts year-round, plus family shows and special events. Check the schedule when you're planning your dates — odds are good something's on.
Parking and getting there
Downtown parking near the arena fills up and prices spike on event nights. The easy move is to stay nearby in EaDo and either walk or take a short rideshare, skipping the garage scramble entirely. The METRORail also runs close to the venue.
Where to eat before and after
EaDo's bars and restaurants are built for game nights — grab tacos or barbecue beforehand and a craft beer afterward, all within walking distance of your rental.
Base yourself in EaDo and the whole evening gets simpler. Our Houston apartments are minutes from Toyota Center — book direct and keep game night easy.
