Families officially have a MUCH better idea of what a trip to Universal Kids Resort is going to cost.
Universal Destinations & Experiences has officially revealed ticket pricing, annual pass details, and starting hotel rates for the upcoming Universal Kids Resort in Frisco, Texas ahead of the park’s grand opening on July 1, 2026.
According to Universal, guests can now purchase:
- 1-Day General Admission tickets
- 2-Day General Admission tickets
- Silver Annual Passes
- Vacation packages with hotel stays included
Current starting ticket prices include:
- 1-Day tickets starting at $54.99
- 2-Day tickets starting at $73.99
- Annual Passes starting at $129.99
- Annual Passes with parking starting at $164.99
Universal also confirmed that children under age 2 will receive free admission.
Compared to pricing at the larger Universal Orlando parks, this feels VERY intentionally family-focused.
Hotel Prices Have Also Been Revealed
Universal also opened bookings for the new Universal Kids Resort Hotel, the colorful 300-room on-site hotel located directly at the entrance of the park.
Starting hotel prices currently begin at approximately $209 per night, though rates vary depending on travel dates, room type, vacation package selections, and seasonal demand.
The hotel will feature family suites, character-inspired theming, an outdoor pool, family dining options, direct park access, and interactive kid-focused amenities.
Tickets and Packages Are On Sale NOW
Universal confirmed that tickets, annual passes, hotel stays, and vacation packages officially went on sale alongside the opening date announcement this week.
The resort will feature seven themed lands inspired by Shrek, Jurassic World, SpongeBob SquarePants, Minions, Trolls, Puss in Boots, and Gabby’s Dollhouse.
Universal says the park was specifically designed for families with younger children and will feature family-friendly rides, interactive play spaces, character meet-and-greets, splash areas, shows, and sensory-friendly experiences.
Universal Seems VERY Focused on Accessibility Here
One thing that REALLY stands out about the pricing structure is how aggressively Universal appears to be positioning this as a shorter, more affordable regional family vacation compared to larger destination theme parks.
