You won't have to go to far to visit Universal Studios. A new theme park and resort is coming to Frisco.
FRISCO, Texas — Soon, Texans won’t have to travel across the county to visit a Universal theme park. Universal Parks & Resorts on Wednesday announced a new expansion into North Texas.
Universal officials said the latest theme park will be unlike any other in the world, specifically designed to inspire fun for families with young children. The new park concept will feature immersive themed lands, celebrating Universal’s iconic brand of entertainment, humor and innovation and bring to life its beloved characters and stories in ways that will wow even the youngest theme park goers.
Universal Parks & Resorts selected the city of Frisco, Texas, as the area for this new concept given the city’s growing population and ability to attract businesses to the area. The proposed location for the new concept is ideally situated east of the Dallas North Tollway and north of Panther Creek Parkway.
“Frisco is one of the fastest growing cities in the U.S. and has been recognized as a great place to plant professional roots and raise a family,” said Frisco Mayor Jeff Cheney. “This new Universal concept will continue to enhance our tax base, expand employment opportunities and bring even more fun to Frisco benefiting our residents, businesses and visitors.”
