I completely forgot that yesterday was the last day of operations for the original American Girl Dallas store in the Galleria mall - I'm so sorry for forgetting! - but the opening day for the new American Girl Dallas store, at The Shops at Park Lane, has been set for March 2!
According to CultureMap Dallas, "The new store will comprise 14,720 square feet with two levels, featuring a full assortment of American Girl dolls and accessories, along with the brand’s doll-and-girl fashions and bestselling books.
The location boasts an all-new interior design, anchored by a floor-to-ceiling dollhouse feature and a reimagined full-service cafe with private party rooms. Not to mention dedicated personal shoppers and Instagram-worthy photo ops.
For the first time in Dallas, girls will be able to join their dolls in getting a matching hairstyle, mini manicure, or ear-piercing (for the girls only, not the dolls) at the store's Dolled Up Salon. Reservations can be made in advance, and special packages are available with options for personalization.
The American Girl Cafe will host seatings for brunch, lunch, and teatime. It features three private party rooms for birthdays and other occasions, plus a new Berry Bar that offers sweet treats to go."
"We’re thrilled to welcome Dallas fans to our newly imagined experiential store,” says Jamie Cygielman, global SVP and general manager of American Girl. “Centrally located at The Shops at Park Lane, American Girl Dallas features an all-new look and feel that honors our heritage and offers exciting experiences and new ways to celebrate that will make any visit a special Day to Remember. Whether girls and their families are dining in the charming cafe or getting made-to-match looks in the Dolled Up Salon, American Girl Dallas promises to be the place to create unforgettable memories together.”
The ribbon cutting will be on March 2nd at 9:45 am, with grand opening giveaways the weekend of March 2nd and 3rd.
I think they would do decently in Austin or San Antonio personally.
At least you have a full-service AG store in Dallas. Ours, in ATL, closed during the pandemic, and never reopened. I miss the store but, most of all, all the wonderful people who used to work there. I hope to get to Dallas sometime this year to visit the new store.
i'm gonna miss the old location😭i'm glad it's not being shut down completely but the new version won't feel the same.
The Berry Bar sounds fascinating and sweet. They might offer cupcakes, cookies, brownies, and sweet drinks and sodas.
Yay, finally a solid date. It will be fun to see the store finished, I went about 3 weeks ago, it was cool to see the new location and will be easier for me to access. @admin - will you try to make it to Dallas on one of the days?
