A 240,000-square-foot Scheels is set to open in fall 2026 in Cedar Park, and it's set to employ more than 500 people.

According to a news release issued Oct. 20, the majority of associates at the Cedar Park location will be hired locally.

The employee-owned sporting goods store will be located in the soon-to-come CedarView development near the H-E-B Center along New Hope Drive between 183A Toll and US 183.

In addition to 75 specialty shops inside, the Scheels location will offer family-friendly activities, such as a 65-foot Ferris Wheel, a 16,000-gallon saltwater aquarium stocked with 600 fish, a wildlife mountain and an interactive arcade.

There will also be a Fuzziwig's Candy Shop along with Gina's Cafe—which serves soups, sandwiches, homemade fudge and various coffees.


Construction is expected to begin in early 2024.
