- FEATURES
The story of the "new" Texas is conveyed in a series of pavilions - each of which features a different style of food, costuming, decor, beverage, service and entertainment. Unusual and entertaining devices are used so that patrons participate as the "new" Texas image is conveyed. The emphasis is on the industrial and economic development of today's Texas and upon Texas' potential for the future.
Among the exhibits are the petroleum industry, the cattle industry, the Gulf Coast area, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, the Shrimp Association with a shrimp bar, a beer garden and exhibits of modern Texas and tourism. The hosts and hostesses are college students from the state of Texas. Roving entertainment is also an important feature of the Texas Pavilions.
The Frontier Palace: The Frontier Palace recaptures the atmosphere of the Old West of the 1800's. With a Western Saloon decor and a unique entertainment bar, the costuming and "dance hall type" fun, guests are transported back in time to one of the liveliest eras in American history. While the main attraction is fun and enjoyment, a steak menu for which Texas is noted is featured in the 525 seat restaurant. The Frontier Palace is the official meeting place for the Rotary Clubs at the Fair each day at noon.
The Texas Pavilions are open from 10:00 AM to 2:00 AM.
