The doors are officially open! On Thursday, December 4, the City of Waco celebrated the grand opening and ribbon cutting ceremony for the Waco Welcome Center at its new downtown location. The new Welcome Center offers a comfortable, central spot that showcases the best of Waco.

We’re so excited for you to see it. It’s perfectly situated near hotels, attractions, and restaurants, perfect for visitors, and a fun, easy resource for local residents.

The new location features signature art pieces from local artists that you can’t find anywhere else. Future plans include pop-up events, artist features, seasonal displays, and spotlights for our tourism partners.

We'd love for you to drop by and check out the new space. Our knowledgeable staff are ready to welcome you! Come visit us at 323 South 6th Street, Suite 100.
