Every once in a while, you discover a hidden gem that makes you wonder why you hadn't found it sooner. That's exactly how we felt when we first visited Granbury, Texas – and why we're thrilled to return for the Lone Star Street Rod Association's milestone 50th anniversary celebration.
Tammy Dooley, Granbury's tourism expert, joins us to unveil what makes this charming town of just 11,000 residents the self-proclaimed "Celebration Capital of Texas." With tourism as their number one industry, Granbury has perfected the art of welcoming visitors with thoughtful amenities that transform an ordinary visit into a memorable experience.
You'll discover how Granbury balances small-town charm with visitor-friendly infrastructure, including their newly upgraded fleet of free historic trolleys connecting hotels with downtown and event venues. Tammy shares insider details about the upcoming Street Rod event featuring over 200 classic cars, special performances, and celebratory activities planned throughout the town.
We explore what makes Granbury special beyond the automotive attractions – from its picturesque town square lined with boutique shops and restaurants to the stunning 30-mile Lake Granbury that carves through the heart of the community. The lake's 6,000+ shoreline homes create a beautiful backdrop for events at the nearby conference center and provide additional dining options at waterfront marinas.
What truly sets Granbury apart is their personalized approach to tourism. Tammy reveals how her office coordinates accommodations, stuffs 10,000 welcome bags annually, and works directly with event organizers to create custom experiences for groups of all sizes. Whether you're a car enthusiast or simply searching for a charming weekend getaway, Granbury offers an authentic Texas experience with modern conveniences.
Join us as we uncover this Texas treasure and get the inside scoop on the Lone Star Street Rod Association's golden anniversary celebration. After listening, you'll be ready to plan your own Granbury adventure – whether for the upcoming car show or any celebration-worthy occasion.
