Things to do in Amarillo, Texas (TX): The Best Concerts & Shows

December 3, 2021 Enriqueta Cusson

Amarillo is the perfect place to get a big taste of Texas even if you only have a small amount of time. From canyons to old Cadillacs and gigantic steaks to grand scenery, the city is an Old West enthusiast's dream. One of the country's best collections of Western art and artifacts can be found at the Panhandle-Plains Historical Museum. Mosey on over to the Amarillo Livestock Auction to mingle with real cowboys as they go about the business of buying and selling cattle. For those with interests that are more modern, the city boasts a great art museum and beautiful botanical gardens. If you're traveling with kids, don't miss the thrilling rides at Wonderland Park. The whole family will be in awe of the fantastic rock formations at Palo Duro Canyon State Park.

We live in Amarillo, so it is easy for us to visit, and it was built with serious acoustics in mind. Any time we have an opportunity to go, we do. One bonus nearby, opening in the summer is a new embassy suites, one block away. So why not visit!
