Peppa Pig, the little oinker beloved by preschoolers all over the world, is expanding her brand. Fans of the children’s series and books can soon experience all things Peppa Pig at a new theme park in the Dallas-Fort Worth area of Texas.
Peppa Pig Theme Park Coming to North Texas
This is the second such Peppa Pig theme park in the United States. (The first is in Winter Haven, Florida.) The Texas location, in North Richland Hills, will delight kids and parents with themed playscapes, interactive attractions, rides, and shows, all inspired by the pink porker. Families will be able to meet life-sized versions of Peppa and all her friends at the park, too!
The park is a collaboration between Merlin Entertainments (the location-based entertainment behemoth behind LEGOLAND), and Hasbro, the owner of the Peppa Pig brand.
“Merlin is the definitive partner of choice for brands engaging children, holding the research, care, experience and interest in bringing iconic brands to life through location-based attractions. Thank you to our friends at Hasbro for partnering with us to bring the playful world of Peppa Pig to this vibrant community,” Chief Executive Officer of Merlin Entertainments Scott O’Neil said in a statement.
A New Destination for Family Fun
North Richland Hills is also home to many other family-friendly attractions, including NRH20 Family Water Park, which is right next door to the location for the new Peppa Pig theme park.
“Peppa Pig Theme Park will bring more energy to an area already known as a destination for family fun. I’m certain it will provide unforgettable entertainment that keeps families coming back again and again,” North Richland Hills Mayor Oscar Trevino said.
“We cannot wait for more guests to create lifelong memories with Peppa and her friends,” added Matt Proulx, vice president of location-based entertainment at Hasbro.
