Rock the Ranch Coming to EMC

Rock the Ranch Music Festival is ready to excite audiences in New Caney, Texas this May! Set to be an annual event hosted by the East Montgomery County Improvement District, the inaugural event will take place May 12 and 13 in the heart of the new Valley Ranch Town Center at the Grand Parkway and Interstate 69.

 The event, which includes a BBQ cook-off, free-style motocross performances and street performers, will also showcase two nights of headline performances.

Friday night Rock the Ranch will welcome Jason Derulo to the stage to bust out hits like “Want To Want Me,” “Wiggle,” “In My Head” and “Talk Dirty.” Saturday night, the I Love the 90s Tour will hit the stage with performances from Salt n Pepa, Vanilla Ice, All 4 One, Color Me Badd, Tone Loc, and Young MC. More acts are set to be announced mid-February. With a stellar lineup and fun activities for the whole family, Rock the Ranch is set to be a highlight of the summer!

The proposed two story building — with the capacity to expand vertically in the future — would provide double the space for community events, more than double the size for Lone Star College’s Lifelong Learning Academy, additional office space for EMCID, the Greater East Montgomery County Chamber of Commerce, and non-profits. The Small Business Development Center would continue to be housed in the facility. The building would also provide about 2,500 sq. ft. in office space for elected state officials.

The new complex would sit on approximately five acres in the entertainment district of the Town Center. It’s directly west of and adjacent to the planned 12,000-seat amphitheater. During the public meeting held in October, Valley Ranch developer Danny Signorelli explained to a crowd of two dozen people that in every successful mixed-use development, whether it’s in Sugar Land or Dallas, there’s a civic component — like a city hall — amongst the shopping and dining establishments. EMCID, with its business recruiting and economic development efforts, community grants, and educational initiatives, he said, fulfills that civic component.

The Board began evaluating the functionality of the existing facility and looking at other options shortly after a Montgomery County jury awarded EMCID more than $4 million for property taken in eminent domain proceedings by the Texas Department of Transportation for the construction of the Grand Parkway.

The Board also voted to hire Turner Duran Architects to prepare plans and specifications for the new district building.

The projected cost is just over $19 million. It’s anticipated that proceeds from the sale of EMCID’s current property will be used toward construction. The project is expected to take about two years to complete.
