About Creating Epic Destinations

Join us at Epic Central in Grand Prairie, TX, on February 17, 18 & 19, 2026

This is a free event summit featuring sessions and tours designed for city leaders and private developers. Highlights include presentations from industry experts and guided tours of key venues like The Epic, Epic Waters Indoor Waterpark, and so much more.

Where you’ll experience an incredible event schedule

See for yourself how Epic Central began with an immersive walking tour and splash party at Epic Waters Indoor Waterpark. Step behind the curtain to explore the inner workings of the park, meet the team who runs it, and hear how Grand Prairie’s bold leadership turned an ambitious idea into a thriving destination.

Discover the challenges they navigated, the wins that reshaped the city, and the ripple effects the park continues to create as a regional economic powerhouse.

That evening, enjoy a dinner with world-class dishes, take home exclusive branded swag, and dive into a private splash party featuring full access to the slides, surf machine, and lazy river
