Universal Studios is going to build more of its famous world-renowned theme parks in Texas and Nevada. The area of Frisco is where the new theme park will be located. It will be set on 97 acres. It will not be as big as Universal’s traditional theme parks, but it will still aim to provide the same experience. It’s going to be tailored for families with children, and Universal Studios picked the Frisco area for its population and economic growth. They are set to build it next to Dallas North Tollway and Panther Creek Parkway. The theme park will additionally have a 300-room hotel.
According to CBS news, officials of Universal say the park will be “full of family-friendly attractions, interactive and playful shows, character meet and greets, unique merchandise and fun food and beverage venues. Although smaller in size, it will still carry the same quality as Universal’s other larger resort destinations.”
Texans can be excited they don’t have to travel across the United States or the world to go to a Universal Studios theme park. However, some residents of Frisco are concerned about the amount of traffic that will produce in their area. Universal Studios has stated they would like a tree line to separate the suburbs from the theme park area.
