Im from AZ but was visiting some friends that moved to Lubbock. They suggested we come to Joyland amusement park. The park was super fun! Very affordable! My favorite ride was the Rock o plane cause you can control how many times you flip!! The food is good too! Better than Castles and Coaster for sure!

Brought our granddaughter and her friends and they had a blast. The staff was very courteous and efficient. We had an opportunity to watch many of the rides and were impressed with the sanitizing procedures. All contact areas were sprayed with disinfectant after each use. Riders were properly spaced for good social distancing. Hand sanitizers were placed throughout the park for public use. Security officers (police and sheriffs deputies) were on foot patrol throughout the park. I was very impressed with their protocols.

Joyland is a great place to spend the weekend esp if needing to pass time! I have always loved coming here as a kid. They have kept up with it BUT I would love to also see some changes! The arcades could be updated and not look so run down and old. Also the music is what caught my attention, I felt myself yawning and getting tired and thinking wow this music needs to be updated to a new generation and I feel like that would get people & kids more excited and energetic. Also I feel like their could be more events or shows to get people to go.

This place has a small town feel which I really enjoyed. Great snacks, affordable, friendly staff and great rides!!

Lovejoyland love the rides love people that work there love the owners. Take the grandkids there pretty frequently

Kids love it every time!! They’re taking superb measures to stay open which is a lot more than you can say for a lot of other public places in the area. Food is always delicious and wait times are minimal. Will continue to come in the future for small getaways!

This place has a amazing, the rides are fast and fun and the people who work here are nice and make the rides fun. If I ever have another chance to come and ride the rides again I would. Even with quarantine it was pretty busy and I enjoyed see other people outside my home.

A huge thumbs up to the staff! They sanitized after every ride & were willing to help the kids. The rides were fun. We will definitely be going back soon.

Finally came here after 10 years of living in Lubbock. Its a little cheesey but a lot of fun. Would have given 5 stars but the matter of safety on a few of their rides held me back.

It has been more than 20 years since I visited Joyland. Fond memories of this place as a kid. I was very pleasantly surprised to find that it is still well cared for. Grounds were clean, rides were operational, bathrooms were decent. Some of the rides that I remember as a kid are still there and working well. Entry price covered admission and all rides. Misters were a nice touch to keep us cool. We spent a solid 2.5 hours here in the evening with my 1st grader. He had a blast.

Great people with a relaxed atmosphere. The rides are varied, and they have something for most everyone. Enjoy some family-oriented fun at an affordable price.

In a word this place is just...fine. Our kids had an absolute blast and I rode my fair share of rides as well. The Park was relatively clean and the staff was knowledgeable and friendly. There were a good selection of rides for all age groups as well as general arcade type games. I particularly appreciated the cool misting system that ran all throughout the park. I am from Amarillo and while I do think Wonderland is a considerably better experience as far as general amusement park fun is concerned, there really is nothing really WRONG with Joyland. Save for one thing. I removed one star from this review because in my opinion as far as establishments like this are concerned, drinks and food are VASTLY overpriced. But other than that this is a fine place for a fun family outing.

Still a good place to have a walk and get on rides but the staff always looks so miserable. Kids are there to see joy and fun. You could at least do that for them.

Staff was great. Food was great. The dj at music express talks too much. Need more music. Less talking. Other than that Joyland is great! Thnx for a great time

My family & I had such a great time on opening day. The girl on the daredevil drop was such a sweetheart & made a scary ride so much fun for my children so much so that they rode it over & over. They also enjoyed the xfactor, the guy on there was awesome as well. We will definitely be back lots of times!!!!!

I drove from San Angelo Tx to come to my surprise that The Park Was closed I made sure on the website that the park was open before driving This really sucks that they cant Post anything on there Website about when there closed they don’t even answer phone calls I have never been to this park and it sucks to find out that there website is so un Organized Drove with My 3 kids 7,8 and a 9 month old any body that’s a parent will understand how it can be a long drive for kids

My parents would bring us out here all the time and now I bring my children out here ... we love it here!!!

If you would like to get Corona virus feel free to visit this establishment. I called before I took my autistic boy to joyland amusement park in Lubbock Texas and specifically asked about the precautions they were taking for Corona virus. Their management told me that all of their employees were mask and that they disinfect each of the rides between rides, and encourages their guests to wear masks. I found just the opposite when I arrived with my boy. at least half of their employees were not wearing mask. I asked to speak to a manager about it and she came out to talk to me without wearing a mask. I didnt ask to speak to the general manager and asked him to comply with Texas law that requires masks and he said that its hot out here Im not going to do that. I then told him that their employees disinfecting their rides are barely spending a half a second half hazardly spraying their rides so for instance the steering wheel on the bumper car had disinfected on one side but not the other. I asked the general manager to ask his staff to be more diligent in their disinfecting and he replied that were doing more than other companies do. When I informed them that so many of his staffers were not wearing mask he replied well look the seven people right around us are wearing masks which happened to be the seven people I personally asked to put their mask back on. I invited the general manager to take a stroll through their park so that I can point out all the employees not wearing mask he refused to do so. then I see the general manager walking through the park with no mask on. I spoke to the sheriff that the parked hired as on staff police and the sheriff told me that yes its law in Texas that his staff is supposed to be wearing mask but they dont enforce it. Then I take my boy to one of the rides that goes round and round really fast and that employee is encouraging all of the customers to scream and scream louder and scream louder repeatedly. My boy and I were the only ones wearing mask. So you have a ride full of people screaming at the top of their lungs spewing out vapor mist which could be containing coronavirus and their staffs encouraging customers to stream louder and louder. I asked the general manager to change that policy and he said he wouldnt do it. When we have a thousand people a day catching Corona virus in Texas and approximately 140 deaths nationwide and the general manager of joyland amusement Park in Lubbock Texas is allowing over half of his staff not to wear mask allowing his staff to improperly disinfect rides while advertising to their customers if they are disinfecting their rods and advertising to their customers that their staff members are wearing masks when theyre not despite the fact this is Texas law. it is obvious the general manager does not care whether or not his staff gets Corona virus or his customers get Corona virus. So as a public service announcement if you do not want to get coronavirus I suggest not going to join amusement park in Lubbock Texas because the general manager refuses to change anything.

Grew up going to this place. Lots of memories. First time back in 40 yrs. Had a great time.

Awesome had lotz of fun with the family

Great place to go with the family. Friday 10 to 2 best $50 we spent! Hope you enjoy

This was a great place togo with younger children. the people work there were awesome.

Fun small amusement park with many traditional rides

We had so much fun

Family had great fun. Crowd size was just ok on a Saturday afternoon. Staff knows its stuff.

The staff is nice and you have to support local

We took our children and we all had a blast. However, Im giving only four stars because the green octopus shaped ride just wasnt safe theres no real restraints keeping kids in. For the most part the staff is great but there are a few that could at least pretend they enjoy their job. But overall great family fun you get your moneys worth. But I dont recommend letting your kids ride that one particular ride unless they can hold on tight.

I love it.

Great had a very good time

My girls loved going here on the 4th of July and got on the new ride multiple times..included a pic

Its a great and fun place to take family and kids to get a wonderful day and fan

Great place to have fun.

Always great to have a good time and watch everyone else have a good time!

Granddaughter enjoyed rides, no long lines. Looking forward going back soon.

I felt like the park is very old and run down, but it can still be enjoyable.

Super fun, teaching my daughters how to avoid wrecks on the bumper cars!

I will always love this place

Cute place for family and people wanting to getting to coasters. They have souvenir cups and popcorn buckets and the refills are super cheap. If you get in before 7 on saturday and bring two canned goods, 4 bucks off. The park is small but its enjoyable!

I’ve gone 3 years in a row and going again next week! I live this place it’s so fun and the employees are nice!

So much fun!

Love joyland. I grew up coming here, as did my parents. whenever we come to town to visit we make sure to stop here for an evening. no, its not six flags, but we all knew that. short lines, friendly staff. plenty to do for younger kids as well as adults. I rode the first roller coaster of my life here, so nostalgia

This place acts like its sea world or six flag. Prices for pickles and popcorn r outrageous. Also no lids for drinks. I want to enjoy my drink not pick bugs out of it. Plain hot dogs are also too high.

It was really nice here. I was happy with the rides and cleanliness of the park in general. My 10 year old daughter had so much fun.

Love it and clean and great place for me and the kids great service and fun too

Good place to take you little kids and hang out with them. People were friendly and was not long lines. It will cost about 100.00 for 4 people.

Went with my kids and husband yesterday on our day off the employees are very nice went on the scrambler and my kids didn’t wanna get off the operator was so nice she had such great enthusiasm!!! One think I have to say is the scrambler should have a sun shield because the seats are very hot when we get in.

Fun night. No lines. Loved the new Sand Storm roller coaster.

Do not follow Google maps route. Stay on North Service Rd to McKenzie Park entrance, turn right. Follow Rd to main parking lot. Office is located BEHIND the concession stand.

Great price of admission for a medium sized amusement park. They offer a military discount and a non rider/ limited rider option. It was perfect for my grandchildren who are 10 & 11. The rides are just their speed. A good variety, laid out well, short lines covered seating, water spritzing (for heat control) and friendly staff!! A good value and a family friendly park! Definitely recommended!

Great place to take the family. Rates are affordable and rides are wonderful. Has a nice hometown feel. Not generic like the big corporate parks. Misters really help on the hot days to keep things pleasant.

It a lot more fun than it was last time I was here. Theres a lot more fun rides!

Great local theme park. Has a great fair-feel, with awesome 80s music and fun rides!

Always a blast so vintage and lovely. Glad its hanging on, a true old school gem

Lines were disorganized both entry and exit. Difficult to get in or out. They were out of their souvenir cups, prices are upcharged for convenience. $3 vending machines, make sure to bring cash and hydrate yourself before you even get into the parking lot.

Rides were so much fun wish there were more kid rides tho

Everything was okay. Restrooms seriously need their own staff to keep clean. Seriously need plenty of bleach.

Same GREAT place that I remember as a kid. Good fun for the WHOLE family!!

Had some good rides for our 3 yr old. Good family oriented place to spend some time.

Fun amusement park, though as old as i am cant handle too many twisty motion rides no more. But fun park!

Best time ever came over from clovis me and the family loved it well worth every penny

Super fun place! Perfect for a family day and kids. Nice size, not too small but not huge either.

Great place for my little ones better then the fair

Ive enjoyed going to Joyland ever since I was a kid. The rides bring back so many happy memories and Im so happy I get to make some with my son.

Loved it was really fun

Great place for smaller kids, gone three times in 5 yrs... never let us down.

Had a great time with my son. Thank you for being open on Labor Day!!!

Had great time here. Nice local park tickets are not that expensive and our 2year old was able to get on a lot of rides. There wasnt a lot wait for rides either

Loved it. It been a few years since we been here. My kids had alot of fun.

It was horrible! Electricity went out and we got stuck up in the air on a ride with a 4 yr. Old. Yes she was frightened the ride had to get pushed down by the workers. It was completely unacceptable on a holiday weekend! I want my refund, and will dispute this with my bank!

Fun fun fun

My wife and I went here to have a night out away from the kids. We had a lot of fun.

This is such a wonderful small feel amusement park. The employees are friendly, the rides are fun and appear well kept and there are many food options. The restrooms were clean and tidy. My child absolutely enjoyed going here!

Great price especially for family of 6. We all enjoyed ourselves, from my youngest age 7, to even my Mom age 64.

It was pretty nice today. Good family time

Really fun little theme park that offers attractions for those of all ages. Its not Six Flags but a decent substitute when you dont want to drive far.

Fun place, good valueWill definitely visit again.

Lots of fun, just to let go for a while. Have fun and enjoy

I have never had a bad experience at Joyland, but today we did... My daughters & I stood in line to get in for over 20 minutes. The line never moved. If someone could have just yelled out some explanation, it probably wouldve been okay... We ended up leaving. I love Joyland but something needs to change with customer service.

Its clearly the funnest place you could ever go to love it

Love great place for the whole family

Great place for the family not the best food but over all pretty good.

We had so much fun! The kids section is great for little ones, but they can ride on some of the larger rides too. The snack bar needs more food options. There is one ATM and misters everywhere to help keep cool.

The wait time to get on the right was too long

It was super hot today and there were not many people there today.

Best place ever. Im from florida been to disney and all kinds of places. And this by far one of my favorites. No waits.no lines. Great customer service. Will be going back

Went today UMC EMPLOYEEMy son could not stop riding the scrambller he kept getting on over and over agin the young girl was very nice to me and my son l. I don’t speak much English and she knew Ukrainian I asked what her name she says Brittany or briana if I remember that made me fee comfortabl. And girl said she was new to the job but she doing really good for new we will come back. Love this place

Love this place!!! So much fun for the family.

Its been in Lubbock since I was a little girl. The only rides we can have all seasonal here in the 806! Well my kids or at that the kids I take now, as they have their activity from ride to ride. I get my exercise walking from one end to the other end so its pretty fair for the $6.50 that I pay because, I do not ride. Who am I kidding $6.50 okay they should have the price for the persons that do not ride at least $3.25...

I do like the owners.nor their service.

Joyland is too expensive. The food is over price for the money you have to pay. Theres not enough rides for babies and the same rides fir decades. Overly priced to enter. Theres nothing interesting about joyland, its like the yearly fair. Boring!!!!

It was very fun, my family and I had so much fun

Sum of the rides were a lil rough on the seats and belts. But overall its a great place to take the kids to have fun... we always have fun at this park.

Awesome rides

Nice place to go have fun and bring the kids.

Went when price was discounted. Hardly any lines for the rides good place for the kids and small kids!!

So much fun and great family time and great people working there. Hope to see these 2 there again this year

Friendly staff...chill atmosphere...my kid loves it!!!

Its joyful and fun

It was terrifying. I cried literal tears. If youre scared of heights 7/10 would not recomend. BUT it is lots of fun i had lots of fun, the workers were nice and one even gave us a shoutout! But its still scary..

Attended a work party at Joyland and the family had a blast! The amusement park offers a wide variety of rides and games for all ages.
