Universal Parks & Resorts announced Wednesday plans for a new theme park in Frisco 'unlike any other Universal park in the world.' Here's what we know
Frisco Mayor Jeff Cheney made the announcement Wednesday morning, saying the kid-themed park and resort will provide entertainment for families for years to come.
Mark Woodbury, chairman and CEO of Universal Parks & Resorts, said the park will be unlike any other Universal park in the world and that they are"wildly excited" to bring the park to North Texas. "We're known for creating one-of-a-kind innovative, interactive experiences for the whole family," Woodbury said."We have a portfolio of terrific attractions that appeal to young families around the world. We had an idea to bring all of those together and create a destination that is specifically designed to appeal to families with young children. That's what you see in this illustration now and that's what we hope to bring to Frisco.
The footprint is about one-quarter the size of the parks in Orlando, scaled smaller to be more appropriate for the ages of smaller guests. Woodbury said the park is expected to be a one-day or two-day experience and that they plan to also build a 300-room resort hotel on the property.
