Santa Clara, California's Great America

Expect fun for the whole family at the world-famous Great America theme park, less than 5 miles from the Best Western Brookside Inn. Great America is known for its exceptional rides and wide variety of entertainment for all ages. What is little known is the venue they provide for community events, national dance competitions, rock concerts, and days designated to honor America’s heroes.

Great America serves as an outdoor venue on hot summer days and cool California evenings for exciting summer concerts showcasing some of the hottest performers in America. Some of the many special events hosted there this year include Salute to Heroes to honor our nation’s military, police, fire, and emergency workers. Others include the Run Forrest Run 5K Fun-Run-Walk event, cheerleading and dance competitions, community fundraisers, and much, much more.

When you’re staying with us at the Best Western Brookside Inn, take advantage our free Internet access in the Business Center to visit Great America’s Web site at: http://www.pgathrills.com/. You’ll be surprised at all we have to offer. The park is open every day in summer and varies through the rest of the year. Ask our friendly staff for more information and directions.
