Voice Of Denton

Voice Of Denton Locally owned and operated media company that shares the stories, culture, and people of Denton. Voice of Denton is more than a website.

Its mission is to connect all Dentonties to each other and their community, through the expression of wonderful, diverse stories and culture from all Dentonites. To be a voice for Dentonites on the government, community happenings and local culture, to share the stories of the individuals that make Denton so diverse, vibrant and unique. Voice of Denton does not focus on news for the sake of news.

Our goal is to be local and relevant to Dentonites, for Dentonites, and by Dentonites. As Tangina Barrons from Poltergeist said, "All are welcome!"

Any guests that have Dive-In Movie passes are invited to Water Works Park any day of our 2025 operating season and can redeem them as a daily admissions pass for themselves or a guest. We apologize for the inconvenience.

HEADS UP, Y'ALL! Sunset Street is undergoing a full roadway reconstruction between University Drive and Carroll Boulevard as part of the voter-approved 2019 bond program. While these improvements will bring long-term benefits to our community, we know construction can temporarily change how we access some of our favorite local spots. So, to help you get around, we’ve put together a visual guide to assist with your next visit!

This project is being completed in two phases:
🚧 The eastbound lane is currently under construction and is expected to reopen to traffic by August 15, 2025.
🚧 Construction on the westbound lane is anticipated to begin on August 18, 2025, with overall project completion anticipated in November 2025.

One of the things that makes Denton special is our incredible local business community. Throughout this project, we encourage our fellow Dentonites to get out and show these businesses a little extra love. ♥
