The park ranked No. 7 on USA Today’s list of the best new attractions in the country
PEPPA PIG Theme Park Dallas–Fort Worth is officially on the national map. Less than a year after opening, the North Texas attraction was named one of the Top 10 Best New Attractions by USA Today’s 10Best Readers’ Choice Awards, landing at No. 7 among new experiences across the United States.
The park, which opened on March 1, 2025, brings the world of the beloved British children’s series to life with a Texas-sized twist, offering a playful, purpose-built environment designed specifically for preschool-aged children and their families.
A Theme Park Designed For The Littlest Guests
Inspired by the PEPPA PIG television series, the Dallas–Fort Worth park stands out for what it intentionally avoids. Instead of high-intensity thrills, the attraction focuses on gentle rides, interactive play zones and scaled-down experiences that feel welcoming rather than overwhelming.
From whimsical rides to splash areas like the Muddy Puddles Splash Pad, every element is designed with young children in mind. The result is a theme park experience that delivers excitement without the long lines, sensory overload or size limitations often associated with larger amusement parks.
