DALLAS, United States (MNTV) – A waterpark in Grand Prairie, Texas is scheduled to host a private Eid-al-Adha celebration on June 1, offering Muslim families a dedicated recreational space for religious holiday observance.

The event will operate under full private venue reservation with entry limited to Muslim attendees. Organizers have established a modest dress code and will provide halal food options. Tickets are priced at $65 with food included or $55 without food service, according to event details shared online.

Organizers have designated a dedicated prayer space for the event, with scheduled availability from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. and nearby restroom access, according to event guidelines posted online.

The event guidelines emphasize respectful conduct and modest dress, with organizers stating that attendees are expected to follow Islamic standards of etiquette and maintain appropriate behavior in shared family spaces.

While men and women will not be physically separated, the event encourages adherence to cultural and religious norms including modest clothing standards.

Event organizers describe the setting as a family-friendly environment where Muslim families can celebrate the religious holiday.
