Forum 303 Mall was a shopping mall built at Pioneer Parkway (Spur 303) and SH 360 in Arlington, Texas in the Mid-Cities between Fort Worth and Dallas. The 800,000-square-foot (74,000 m2) complex was dedicated September 19, 1970. An interesting feature of it was that it included a public amphitheater in the lower level. During the 1970s many local and national acts, such as Roy Clark, performed there.
It was converted to an indoor bazaar/flea market venue and renamed Festival Marketplace in 1998, but that concept also failed. Air-conditioner problems and competition with Six Flags Mall, Parks Mall, and Traders Village contributed to its 2006 demise.
Demolition of it started in September 2007. The site has been rebuilt as a business park called Pioneer 360 Business Center.
