Finish dinner 30+ minutes before showtime. Most restaurants offer pre-theater menus.
Highly recommended, especially for evening performances. Book ahead to avoid disappointment.
Most listed restaurants are within 5-10 minutes walk. Factor in extra time during busy hours.

Even with the Coliseum under construction, there are plenty of places to warm up and show. The multi-purpose building even gets some use. The barns are always clean and the stalls are well-maintained. Water and electricity are easy to access. Wash racks have plenty of hot water. Nice RV hookups available on site.
Small venue with very good acoustics. I don’t think there is a bad seat in this place, since it’s so small, you can clearly see the stage anywhere you sit.
I was at the amon Carter exhibit hall. Part of the campus. The zest fest fiery foods convention was held there. The staff i talked to was real nice and the facility was setup nicely. Clean bathroom,s and area. Easy access to the highway for travel.
Amazing experience! Lots of food options outside sitting, lights, small town feeling at the rodeo inside arena. Everyone is friendly and lots of parking!
It was a very nice place, very nostalgic. The sound/acoustics were great. Everyone was kind
