Fans can get there as early as 4 p.m. The action will start at 6:30 p.m. and leading the charge will be former Texans star Cecil Shorts III, who will serve as host.
This year, Houston has the 2nd and 12th picks in the first round.
Rumors are circulating about what they'll do, but fans are hoping adding a quarterback with that 2nd pick overall is part of the plan.
Big names expected to be drafted as a signal caller in the pros, whether they're selected by the Texans or not, include quarterbacks Bryce Young, Will Levis, CJ Stroud and Anthony Richardson.

Whoever the Texans select in the first round will call in live for an on-stage Zoom call in front of fans.
You'll also have the chance to buy custom draft merchandise such as "The Pick is In" T-shirts, where you can get the Texans' first-round draft picks' names on the back.
But one might argue the party doesn't start until some Houston icons walk in.
