The City of Round Rock is set to mark the completion of the first Old Settlers Park improvement from the 2023 voter-approved G.O. bonds projects with a community celebration.

The Round Rock Parks and Recreation Department will host Lakeview Kickoff: A Stone in the Park featuring acclaimed musical artist Allen Stone at 6 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 15, on the new Lakeview stage at Old Settlers Park, 3300 E. Palm Valley Blvd. The evening will also include a ribbon-cutting ceremony with Mayor Morgan and the City Council, followed by a massive fireworks finale. The pyrotechnics, originally prepared for this year’s Frontier Days celebration but postponed due to weather, will be used to create a memorable closing to the milestone event.

The new Lakeview stage and open-air pavilion are designed to serve as a central gathering place and will host concerts, cultural events and community celebrations. The new two-story Lakeview Pavilion nearly triples the size of the former structure, which will also remains standing. To better accommodate both everyday park visitors and major events, the project also delivers larger, modern restroom facilities. In addition, construction is planned on a new Joanne Land Playground.

Beyond the Lakeview area, the expansion also features significant upgrades across the park, including an expansion of Rock’N River Waterpark, a new athletic performance center, tennis and pickleball courts, improvements to pedestrian walkways and Harrell Parkway and an expansion of the Multipurpose Complex.

Residents and visitors are invited to join in this historic moment as the Lakeview Stage lights up for the very first time.
