Irving, Grand Prairie Open COVID-19 Vaccination Location on Feb. 3

The cities of Grand Prairie and Irving have partnered to operate a new COVID-19 vaccination provider location in west Dallas County at The Theatre at Grand Prairie, 1001 Performance Place, Grand Prairie, TX 75050 (Belt Line Road, just north of Interstate 30, next to Lone Star Park). The facility will open Feb. 3 to administer an initial shipment from the state of 500 vaccine doses for the public. At this time vaccine supply is limited, and the facility will operate on an as-needed basis. When vaccines become readily available, the site will operate Monday through Friday.

The location is co-managed by the cities’ Emergency Management teams, and the vaccines will be administered by Irving and Grand Prairie Emergency Medical Services teams. Opening the new vaccine location helps residents receive the vaccine quicker, and although the intent is to service west Dallas County, Grand Prairie and Irving residents may be assigned to a different vaccination location in Dallas County.

Registration for the vaccine is required, and individuals must meet the state’s criteria to get an appointment. Currently, COVID-19 vaccinations are available to people who qualify for Phase 1A or Phase 1B criteria. Walk-up vaccinations are not available.
