There are plenty of different types of event spaces around Amarillo and the Texas Panhandle area. Places you can have a wedding, a work conference, or just a raging party. There are plenty of places to choose from.

However, when it comes to those unique types of spaces, ones with character and a story you can tell for years after, well, let's just say there are a lot of places that COULD provide that, but don't.

That's all about to change, and if you're willing to make the short 30-35 minute drive to Happy, TX., you'll find what has to be the most unique event space not just in the Texas Panhandle, but quite possibly anywhere in Texas.

You've more than likely seen them as you drive through the Texas Panhandle. They stand out as you make the drive to or from Lubbock or Plainview, but the silos that stand in Happy are an immediate landmark for many.

What Will The Silos At Happy Have

They've actually already started to do some things there. Last weekend they held a concert INSIDE one of the old silos, and they have plans for a car show. In fact, they're going to have concerts inside a silo this weekend.

They have plans to build the old house out there into a place where you could hold a wedding, reception, or reunion in. They also want to add a spa to the venue. You can see everything happening on their Facebook page.

Untouched by Time: The Historic Homes of Polk Street Then & Now

You know you've entered Amarillo's historic district once you hit the red brick roads of Center City. A unique reflection of past and present, Amarillo's historic homes seem to pose pristinely against the curb.

These large, thoughtfully designed historic homes are part of the most beautiful neighborhoods in Amarillo. But most residents will agree that nothing quite tops the staggering royal beauty of the grand homes of Polk Street. Built by Amarillo's founding fathers, the looming estates of South Polk are a sight to behold.
