Doggett Ford Park

Doggett Ford Park is a sprawling 221-acre entertainment complex in Beaumont, Texas, featuring an arena, exhibit hall, amphitheater, and youth baseball fields. Opened in 2003, it hosts the South Texas State Fair and a variety of events, including concerts and rodeos. The Ford Arena accommodates nearly 10,000 spectators and has been home to several professional sports teams. The complex also includes a multi-purpose exhibit hall, 12 youth baseball fields with synthetic turf, and a 9-acre midway for fairs. Plans for expansion included a hotel and horse-racing track, though negotiations fell through in 2022.
