, which has a sprawling backyard that can fit 1,400 people, has a renewed plan to be a live music destination.
Its owners have partnered with Spune Productions, a Dallas-based company. Ferris Wheelers’ new calendar starts on Sept. 13, 2023 with German electronic band Tangerine Dream. The last week of October looks to be a big one, with six back-to-back nights of music that includes rock bands The Black Angels and The Dandy Warhols; Austin electro-dance outfit Ghostland Observatory; and former Neon Indian frontman Alan Palomo.
Ferris Wheelers gets its name from the working Ferris wheel on the property. Keeping with the theme, Ferris Wheelers also sells food at the State Fair of Texas in 2023. The shows signal a post-pandemic revival of sorts for Ferris Wheelers, a place co-owner Brandon Hays says always lent itself to live music, private parties and charity shows because of its spacious spot in the Dallas Design District.
“This feels like Ferris becoming what it was always meant to be, for the first time,” Hays says. Partnering with Spune was the difference-maker.In 2024, Ferris Wheelers will get a new stage, green room and mezzanine. The 50-foot Ferris wheel is still in the backyard, but customers can’t ride it anymore. It’s too expensive to insure.“Thousands and thousands of people rode that Ferris wheel,” Hays says. He laughs: “It is the most incredible paper weight that anyone has purchased.
