Second Mattel Adventure Park coming to Kansas City

Set to open in 2026, the second theme park from Mattel and Epic Resort Destinations will offer the same attractions as Mattel Adventure Park Glendale, Ariz., including two Hot Wheels-themed roller coasters, a Barbie Rooftop restaurant and bar, and much more.

“We are proud and excited to announce Kansas City, Kansas, as the second themed entertainment destination location for Mattel Adventure Park, an Epic Resort Destinations licensing partnership with Mattel,” said Epic Resort Destinations President Mark Cornell. “We are bringing Mattel’s powerhouse brands to life through state-of-the-art technology and engaging experiences. This new destination is sure to provide infinite fun for the whole family.”

Following Barbie’s renewed popularity (thanks to the blockbuster movie), Mattel Adventure Park Kansas City will feature a larger-than-life Barbie Beach House. The attraction will also include an interactive retail experience where fans can create customized Barbie sets in the Barbie Dream Closet Experience, which uses hologram technology to bring Barbie to life. The attraction also includes a unique, Barbie-themed flying theater and The Barbie Rooftop restaurant and bar.
