Slick City Action Park Expands Houston Footprint with New Webster Location This Spring
Innovative, All-Ages Action Park to Open in Webster, TX, Led by Local Entrepreneurs Tomi Dania and Gbolade Odeneye
Slick City Action Park, the world’s first indoor dry-slide and air court park for all ages, is expanding its presence in the Houston metro area with the opening of Slick City Webster this spring. Located in Webster, the new 37,000-square-foot park marks a major milestone for the rapidly growing brand as it continues expanding across Texas under the leadership of local entrepreneurs Tomi Dania and Gbolade Odeneye.
Slick City Webster will bring a high-energy indoor entertainment experience to families across the Houston metro area, combining speed, energy and connection in an indoor, no-water environment. Designed for thrill seekers of all ages, the park will feature 11 signature slides, including multi-lane racing slides, the Avalanche, the Zig Zag, the Mega Launch and the Python. Additional attractions include a zipline, sports and dodgeball courts, a junior jungle, web crawler, private and shared party rooms and more. A café will also be located on-site, offering guests a place to relax and refuel between adventures.
“This is an exciting opportunity to bring something truly different to the Houston area,” said Tomi Dania, co-owner of Slick City Webster. “We’ve always been drawn to family-friendly businesses, and Slick City stood out immediately as something innovative and high-energy. After experiencing it firsthand, we knew it was the right fit—not just as a business, but as something the community would genuinely love.”
