Grand Texas Theme Park

Grand Texas Theme Park

Grand Texas Theme Park will be themed to honor the history of Texas and the Wild West.  Texas has such a rich and vibrant history that we wanted to create an environment that showcased that.  Texas' history is full of wild & adventurous stories that we will help to come to life for a truly interactive experience for our guests.  We want the families that visit Grand Texas to not only be entertained, but enjoy an educational experience, as well.
 
Guests visiting Grand Texas will be able to enjoy a wide variety of activities.  The park will be divided into a number of areas, each focusing on a different element of Texas history.  Attractions at Grand Texas will include a total of 3 rollercoaster's, including a 150 ft high wooden coaster with speeds in excess of 60mph and a steel coaster with one of the highest inversions in the world.  In addition to the coasters, the park will also include a full-size steam train, real stage coach line, water rides, 2 dozen amusement attractions, a mile-long equestrian trail, an area with petting zoos, pony rides and a working farm, a living museum with trades & crafts, an amphitheater and an adventure park with zip lines, ropes course and other eco-friendly activities.  The park will also include a plethora of space for group outings and special events, including air-conditioned catering space.

The site for the Grand Texas Entertainment District is located at Hwy 242 and US 59/I 69 and includes acreage on the north and south sides of Hwy 242.  The site is on the west side of US 59/I 69 and is located in East Montgomery County.  The GTED will consist of a total of 610 acres, with the majority of the site located on the north side of Hwy 242.

The management team compiled for the operation of the parks includes several proven industry professionals.  Grand Texas has also contracted with Innovative Leisure Partners (ILP), based in Houston, on the project management of the Grand Texas Entertainment District.  ILP was founded by Chuck Hendrix, a veteran in the leisure and entertainment industry with 35+ years of experience.  Hendrix was the General Manager of Six Flags AstroWorld in Houston for 13 years until its closure in 2005 and then took the role of VP of Strategic Planning for Six Flags, Inc. where he oversaw the operations of 37 Six Flags themeparks and 34,000 employees worldwide before returning to Houston and founding Innovative Leisure Partners.  ILP has successfully managed the construction and operation of family entertainment venues & attractions on a global scale.  The Grand Texas team feels that ILP brings an unparalleled level of expertise for the industry and this market to the project.

Ground breaking on the theme park will be later this Fall.
