Check out the Houston Museum of Natural Science at Hermann Park. It has great permanent exhibits and often has really great visiting exhibits too, plus an IMAX and lots of other stuff. He could easily spend a full day there.

Will he have a rental car so he can go places while you are at the show? If so, there seem to be a lot of museums and a history district in Houston. I have not been there, so don't know where things are located in relationship to each other. Here are some website that include museums and sports:

Are you staying downtown? Or renting a car and driving back and forth? There's usually a room at the show for the husband's to watch sports on TV but that's about all and that's only during the show not market or classes before the festival. There are a lot of excellent museums in the area. It mostly depends on how far you want to go.

I do know from having lived in that area, that there is a reproduction, in life size, of the "Terra Cotta Army" from China somewhere nearby. I can't remember just where, but it is not too far. Google 'Historic Places near Huston, TX"?
