Property Description

Step into a piece of Texas history with the Wild Will Dance Hall & Saloon, a premier live music and event venue in Ranger, Texas. Originally built in 1920 as a peanut mill, this one-of-a-kind property has been transformed into a legendary dance hall that continues to draw crowds and top-name entertainers. With over 13,000 square feet of space, the property offers:
8,500 sq. ft. main venue floor with current seating for 350 guests, and capacity for over 600.
5,000 sq. ft. shop-style indoor outdoor area, ideal for overflow seating, private events, or expansion opportunities.
Unfinished upstairs areas providing an additional 1,000 sq. ft. for future use.

Known for its rich entertainment history, the Wild Will stage has hosted a long list of country music legends, including Gary P. Nunn, Moe Bandy, T.G. Sheppard, The Bellamy Brothers, John Conlee, Johnny Lee, Stoney LaRue, Confederate Railroad, Jason Boland & The Stragglers, Marty Haggard, Doug Stone, and many more. Whether you're looking to continue its legacy as a premier Texas music venue or reimagine the space for new opportunities, the Wild Will Dance Hall & Saloon offers unmatched character, history, and potential.

In addition to the venue and dancehall, the owner is selling a total if 11 lots on Melvin and Rusk Street. These are currently used for parking, but could be developed or built on.
