A NEW Peppa Pig theme park is set to open in Texas next year, and it’ll be home to rollercoasters, rides, and a water play area.
The new Peppa Pig theme park was announced earlier this year.
While Texas is already home to an indoor play centre based on the popular children’s TV character, it’ll soon have another Peppa Pig attraction to add to its list of sites.
Set in the North Richland Hills near Fort Worth, the Peppa Pig theme park is slated to open in 2024.
Earlier this month, the new theme park unveiled several of its rides and attractions, including Daddy Pig’s Rollercoaster.
On the family-friendly rollercoaster, families will be taken on a new shortcut as they ride in Daddy Pig’s red car.
According to the local website Dallas Innovates, there will be plenty of other rides and attractions at the American theme park.
One of those is Peppa Pig’s Balloon Ride, where parkgoers are launched into the air on an aerial carousel ride.
The new theme park will also have a ride called Grandad Dog’s Pirate Boat Ride.
On this ride, parkgoers will be taken on a family boat ride to find some hidden treasure.
Other rides are said to include Grampy Rabbit’s Dinosaur Adventure, which takes younger parkgoers on a pre-historic quest, and there will also be Mr. Bull’s High Striker.
In addition to the rides, there will also be plenty of other family-friendly attractions at the US theme park.
One of those is the Muddy Puddles Splash Pad, where visitors will be able to cool off in the Texas heat under foundations and water slides.
Younger parkgoers will also be invited to cycle past adventurous landscapes on Peppa’s Pedal Bike Tour and George’s Tricycle Trail.
Other attractions in the theme park include George’s Fort, which is said to be set inside Granny Pig’s Maze.
There’s also Grandpa Pig’s Greenhouse and Peppa Pig’s Treehouse, both of which will have slides and other climbing features.
Other areas include Rebbecca Rabbit’s Playground and Madame Gazelle’s Nature Trail.
There’s also Mr. Potato’s Showtime Arena, where live shows will be performed, and a cinema screen will play episodes of Peppa Pig.
Families will also be able to eat at the on-site Miss Rabbit’s Dinner where snacks and meals will be provided.
It hopes to open in 2024, although official dates and ticket prices are yet to be announced.
Last year, another Peppa Pig Theme Park opened in Orlando, as part of the Legoland Florida Resort.
Built across 4.5 acres, there are rides and restaurants all based on the famous TV show character’s adventures.
The UK has its own Peppa Pig attraction at Paulton’s Park.
Guests will find Grampy Rabbit’s Sailing Club, The Queen‘s Flying Coach, Grandpa Pig’s Little Train, and Peppa’s Big Balloon in the Peppa Pig World.
Kids can also enjoy play areas, as well as meet and greets with Peppa Pig and George Pig.
Meanwhile, this UK theme park has the biggest Peppa Pig shop in the world.
