Wonderland Park, Amusement park in Amarillo, Texas.

Wonderland Park is an amusement park in Thompson Memorial Park in Amarillo, Texas, founded by Paul and Alathea Roads and still run by the Roads family. Its attractions include roller coasters, water rides such as Big Splash Log Flume and Rattlesnake River Raft Ride, children's rides, a bumper car ride added in 1969, miniature golf, an arcade and food, drink and cotton candy booths.

The park was founded in 1951 and has been an established leisure destination in Amarillo since then. Over the decades, new rides and entertainment options have been added steadily to expand what it offers.

Wonderland Park was founded by Paul and Alathea Roads in 1951 and is still run by the Roads family. Much of Amarillo's population describes it as an important part of the local culture, and the mushroom-shaped structure with the pink pig labelled "PORKY" is one of its familiar sights.

Wonderland Park sits inside Thompson Memorial Park in Amarillo, so the rides, miniature golf, arcade and food, drink and cotton candy booths are all reached on foot within the same grounds. The 2020 season opened late, running only from mid-June after the mid-March closure.

The park opened on 12 August 1951, when Paul Roads built it as a children's amusement park; it is still run by the Roads family. The 2020 season was cut short, closing from mid-March to mid-June because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
