Fall is bringing plenty of reasons for Houstonians to get out, enjoy the season and discover something new close to home. Just north of Houston, The Woodlands Resort is adding to the area's seasonal entertainment lineup with live comedy, weekly jazz nights and a festive Thanksgiving brunch.

Whether planning a date night, gathering with friends or looking for a new place to enjoy the season, the resort offers several opportunities to make the most of fall without traveling far.

Comedy fans can mark their calendars for Friday, November 13, when WIT at The Woodlands returns with another evening of stand-up comedy. The monthly series features a rotating selection of comedians with credits from HBO, Comedy Central, Kill Tony and Comics Unleashed.

The November lineup includes headliner Kristin Lindner, comedian Ku Egenti and nationally touring comedian Billy D. Washington, who will serve as the evening's emcee. Doors open at 7:30 p.m., with the show beginning at 8 p.m.

General admission tickets include one beverage per person. VIP tickets include one beverage per person, priority seating and a small charcuterie board per couple. Tickets are available through The Woodlands Resort website.

For those who prefer live music, Birdie & The Blues brings a weekly jazz experience to Back Table Kitchen & Bar every Thursday from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. Guests can enjoy live jazz alongside chef-driven bites, craft cocktails and scenic views.

The free event is open to guests ages 21 and older, offering another option for date nights, evenings with friends or simply enjoying good music in a relaxed setting.

As Thanksgiving approaches, Harrison's is preparing a holiday brunch on Thursday, November 26, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. The seasonal spread will feature traditional holiday favorites, brunch selections, fresh seafood, carving stations, made-to-order dishes and an assortment of seasonal desserts.
