What is the big theme park coming to Oklahoma?

A new $2 billion-plus theme park and resort called American Heartland is coming soon to Vinita, Oklahoma, according to a developer press release. The 1,000-acre development, first announced in July, will include roller coasters, an indoor water park, a 300-room hotel and a 320-acre RV park.



The major theme park coming to Oklahoma is called American Heartland Theme Park and Resort, a massive $2 billion project located in Vinita, along historic Route 66. Planned to open its first phase in late 2026, it is designed to be a world-class destination on the scale of Disney or Universal. The park will span 125 acres and feature six distinct lands inspired by American themes: Great Plains, Bayou Bay, Big Timber Falls, Stony Point Harbor, Liberty Village, and Electropolis. The project is being led by a team that includes several former Disney Imagineers, promising high-level storytelling and immersive environments. In addition to the theme park, the resort will include a 320-acre RV park and campground (Three Ponies RV Park), a boardwalk, and a large hotel with an indoor water park. For your city data and tourism database, this is a significant development as it marks a major shift in the "Regional Theme Park" landscape, aiming to attract millions of visitors to the central United States and provide a massive economic boost to the Oklahoma region, which has traditionally lacked a high-tier, multi-day destination resort of this magnitude.
