National Night Out Kick Off Event. All Longview and Gregg County residents are encouraged to participate by hosting a NNO party in their neighborhood. The parties are designed to promote neighborhood alliances that strengthen our communities and preserve the quality of life in East Texas.
Located in Northeastern Texas, Longview is a thriving city with ample opportunities to mingle with the locals. Annual events draw people from around the world, keeping the Longview restaurant scene fresh and cultivating an easy hospitality marked by a friendly howdy and a big Texas grin. Every July, crowds flock to Longview and look toward the skies. The normally laid-back town bustles with excitement during the Great Texas Balloon Race, a celebration started in 1978 as a kickoff for a shopping mall that has grown into a major competition for the world's hot air balloon pilots.
