Wonderland Park
Wonderland Amusement Park
A family amusement park that opened in 1951, with classic roller coasters, water slides, and rides for young children.
Wonderland Amusement Park sits beside Thompson Park in north Amarillo. It's the only amusement park in the long, narrow Texas Panhandle. The park has about 30 rides and attractions, including the Texas Tornado double-loop roller coaster built in the 1970s, a water slide, and an area for younger children. It's small but affordably priced, and local families often visit in summer. It's open only on weekends in spring and summer and during summer vacation, so check the official calendar before you go.
Opening hours
Seasonal; about 13:00–22:00
