A new era of immersive entertainment is coming to the Greater Houston area. Lumos, a next-generation entertainment and private event venue, promises to deliver elevated experiences and economic growth in the region.
The fun officially began with a ribbon-cutting ceremony on October 2, 2025, at the Valley Ranch Entertainment District in New Caney, Texas. Members of the public and the media were invited to be among the first to explore Lumos’ cutting-edge technology — including augmented reality, 40-to-56-foot LED screens as well as a new spin on family-favorite attractions like laser tag, bowling, axe throwing and more.
“We created Lumos to be a place where connection, creativity and fun collide,” said Greg Little, CEO of Lumos. “New Caney is the perfect home for this concept — this community is growing fast, and we’re proud to be part of it.”
“This is next-level entertainment,” said Mark Linabury, president and CEO of the Greater East Montgomery County Chamber of Commerce. “In fact, I don’t think there’s anything like this in the region or beyond.”
