Ford Park is a 221-acre multi-purpose entertainment complex consisting of an arena, exhibit hall, amphitheater, midway, and 12 youth baseball fields located on I-10 South in Beaumont, Texas. The complex opened in 2003. It is owned by Jefferson County, Texas and operated by OVG360, a division of the Oak View Group. It is the home of the South Texas State Fair.
In 2020, Jefferson County began negotiations to sell Ford Park to Renaissance Development Group, which would add a hotel and a horse-racing track to the complex.[2] The deal fell through in 2022 after Renaissance failed to put additional earnest money towards the $22 million sale price.[3]
The Southeast Texas Ford Dealers have held the naming rights to the complex since 2003,[4] a deal which will expire at the end of 2022.[5]
