Show Your Love for Big Bend with a Specialty License Plate!
In 1997, the Texas Legislature authorized the creation of a specialty license plate featuring Big Bend National Park. Each plate purchased directly supports Big Bend Conservancy’s work to protect and preserve Big Bend for future generations.
Texans across the state display their Big Bend plates with pride, from bustling cities to quiet desert roads. Many choose to personalize their plates to celebrate a favorite trail, memory, or connection to the park. When you purchase a Big Bend plate, you’re supporting vital conservation projects that care for the landscapes, wildlife, and experiences that make the park so special.
