History

San Antonio lawyer Wayne Crocker originally constructed the complex in 1982 as the Silver Rose Garden.[1] In 1984, it was renamed by a new owner to The San Antonio Rose Palace and later to the Twin Oaks Exposition Center.[1]

Investor Michael Hopkins purchased the equestrian center from the Resolution Trust Corporation in 1992, which was liquidating assets of First State Savings, an insolvent San Antonio savings and loan association.[2][3] He began renovations on the facility and restored the previous San Antonio Rose Palace name.[2]

In 1998, a group of investors led by country singer George Strait purchased the facility.[1][4] The Rose Palace was put up for sale in 2018 and temporarily closed.[4] In March 2019, the arena announced plans to re-open under new management, but still owned by Strait.[5]

Events

The Rose Palace hosted the San Antonio Steers of the National Indoor Football League.[6]
