The seasonal opening of Big Rivers Waterpark & Adventures—23101 Hwy. 242, New Caney—has been delayed until April 2 due to staffing and supply chain shortages, officials announced in a March 24 Facebook announcement.

The announcement is coming as Big Rivers Waterpark & Adventures officials prepare for the opening of the park’s newest attraction, Big Rivers Fairgrounds, which will feature 11 amusement park rides, including a spinning rollercoaster, a rocking pirate ship, a 360-degree spinning pendulum and several attractions for children. The new rides will add to the variety of attractions already available at the park, including water slides, a wave pool, rock climbing, a forest maze, ax throwing, a concert venue and a large aquatic obstacle course.
