Peppa Pig isn’t confined to the TV screen any longer. In 2022, Merlin Entertainments opened the first Peppa Pig Theme Park in Winter Haven, Florida, and I’m happy to announce it has chosen North Richland Hills, Texas for the second location. Slated to open in 2024, this toddler-friendly attraction will feature rides, games, food, and more, and your kids are sure to love it. Here’s everything you need to know about the Texas Peppa Pig Theme Park.
If you have kids who enjoy watching Peppa Pig on TV, they'll be delighted to know a Peppa Pig-themed amusement park is headed to the Dallas-Fort Worth area in 2024.
The park is separate from Peppa Pig World of Play in Grapevine, which is an indoor play center with 14 different attractions.
The flagship park in Winter Haven, Florida has proven to be a smashing success, and it has chosen the community of North Richland Hills for its second location.
Merlin Entertainments, the company that owns the Peppa Pig Theme Park, also owns Legoland Discovery Center and Sea Life Aquarium. Both of these attractions are located just 30 minutes away from North Richland Hills in nearby Grapevine, so combination tickets will likely be offered (this is the case with the Florida park).

Only one attraction, Daddy Pig's Roller Coaster, has been announced so far.
This ride can also be found at the Florida location and has a minimum height requirement of 36 inches, which is the strictest requirement in the park (most rides have no height minimum).

Since so few details about the DFW location have been released, we have to look to the Florida park for ideas of what to expect.
From nature trails and a knot garden maze to a dinosaur adventure and a hot air balloon ride, there are so many attractions for little ones and their families to enjoy. I sure hope all of them make it to Texas!
Of course, Peppa and George make appearances all the time - they're always ready to make new friends! The park also has an arena with fun, interactive shows that get the kiddos up on stage.
From PB&J sandwiches and cheese pizza to flatbreads and smoked brisket sandwiches, there's plenty for all ages to chow down on.

What's more, the Winter Haven park hosts special events such as "Breakfast with Peppa," which features a buffet of colorful, kid-approved eats and visits with Peppa herself.
How cool would it be if the Texas park also offers this unique character dining experience?
