Lewisville is in the “path of totality” for the solar eclipse , which means attendees will see the sun’s corona , or outer atmosphere , which normally is obscured by the bright face of the sun .
Attendees at this free , family - friendly event will enjoy an eclipse - worthy concert , featuring Legacy House Band and Texas Floyd – A Tribute to Pink Floyd , fun and games from Play Lewisville On Wheels , and food choices from several local restaurants . Solar eclipse glasses will be provided , and there will be promotional giveaways .

The award - winning Wayne Ferguson Plaza is a 1 . 5 - acre urban park that takes on a contemporary sweeping gesture using water to link east to west and united Lewisville City Hall and Lewisville Grand Theater .
