ATHENS, Ala. (WHNT) — The new Buc-ee’s location in Athens will open on November 21!

The travel center is located at the corner of I-65 and Huntsville Brownsferry Road in Athens. It is the first Buc-ee’s location in North Alabama, and third overall in the state.

The Athens location will open to the public at 6 a.m. with a ribbon cutting at 10:30 a.m. Local leaders like Athens Mayor Ronnie Marks, Limestone County Commission President Collin Daly, and House Speaker Mac McCutcheon are expected to attend.

“Buc-ee’s will be a destination stop in Athens,” Mayor Ronnie Marks said. “Interstate traffic is a vital part of our tax base, and Buc-ee’s will definitely benefit our economy. Buc-ee’s also has a wonderful reputation for customer service and community support. We look forward to a long and successful partnership in Athens.”

The travel center will have 120 fueling stations and thousands of snacks, meals, drinks, and a car wash for travelers.

Buc-ee’s broke ground on the new location last November.

The company will bring 250 jobs to the area and is actively hiring, according to a post from Shelly Matthews, the corporate human resources manager for Buc-ee’s.
