The first U.S. Peppa Pig Play Center will open in February at Grapevine Mills mall, 3000 Grapevine Mills Parkway, Grapevine, according to a news release. The attraction is a 14,000-square foot, year-round indoor playground that will immerse young fans of the show "Peppa Pig" into Peppa's world. There will also be a themed party room for birthdays, a movie theater/screening room, facilities for families to relax, and 14 play areas with interactive, activity-based play. “We take great pride in producing themed entertainment attractions that are fully immersive and engaging for visitors of all ages," said Paul Moreton, Merlin Entertainment's Group creative director, in a statement. "To create Peppa Pig World of Play, we spent thousands of hours watching episodes of the TV show to ensure that the experience is a truly authentic representation of the magical world of Peppa Pig that fans know and love so well. A meticulous level of detail has gone into creating each of the play areas, and we’re also using the latest in visual and sensory effects technology to guarantee a truly memorable day out for families.” Following the opening in Dallas, a Peppa Pig World of Play will launch in Michigan in 2019. Construction is well underway at the Grapevine Mills location, and Attraction Manager Tyron Calton said the company is putting a significant investment into the attraction to ensure an authentic experience for young visitors and their families. "Grapevine Mills is the perfect location to open Peppa Pig World of Play, and we’re confident that when doors open, Dallas-Fort Worth area families will enjoy a truly unforgettable experience as they step into the wonderful world of Peppa Pig," he said.
