HB 3962 Texas House · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to the eligibility of the INDYCAR Grand Prix of Arlington for funding under the major events reimbursement program.

This bill adds the INDYCAR Grand Prix of Arlington to the list of events eligible for funding under Texas' major events reimbursement program. It amends the definition of "Event" in the Government Code to specifically include "the INDYCAR Grand Prix of Arlington" as a qualifying activity. The change directly affects Arlington event organizers by making the race eligible for state reimbursement funding previously available to other major sports and entertainment events. The bill does not alter the program's funding structure or amounts, only expands the list of qualifying events.
