Good first step: Act Visit Gene Green All-Inclusive Park this weekend
Head to the park near U.S. 90 and Beltway 8. It opens at 6:30am and closes at 9:30pm every day. Bring your family and check out the activities!
Gene Green All-Inclusive Park gives you 250 free acres to explore east of downtown Houston. The park is built with sustainability in mind — recycled materials, smart lighting, and water-saving design are woven throughout. It welcomes visitors of all ages and abilities every day of the week.
The park spans 250 acres and features activities and equipment for a wide range of visitors. Sustainability runs through every corner — from recycled-material lighting to the way water flows through the grounds. Admission is free, and no reservations are needed for a general visit.
Plan your outing by arriving after 6:30 a.m. and wrapping up before 9:30 p.m. — overnight parking is not allowed and vehicles left after hours may be towed. Pack food and drinks in non-glass containers, since glass bottles are prohibited. Bring a leash for your dog, and bag any pet waste before you leave. Use designated grills or camp stoves if you plan to cook — open fires are not permitted. Keep the volume at a neighborly level and leave wildlife alone. If you want to bring fireworks or alcohol, you will need a permit in advance.
