Arlington shoppers and sports enthusiasts have a exciting new destination to explore: Dick’s House of Sport has officially opened at The Parks Mall. The arrival of this flagship-style retail concept marks a fresh chapter for one of Arlington’s most established shopping centers and brings a new level of sporting goods and experiential retail to the community.

Dick’s House of Sport is the premium store format from Dick’s Sporting Goods, designed to go beyond traditional retail by offering an immersive, activity-focused shopping experience. The opening at The Parks Mall adds a major anchor tenant to the center and is expected to draw shoppers from across the Arlington and greater DFW area.

The news comes at a particularly vibrant moment for Arlington, which has been riding a wave of positive momentum. The city recently set a tourism record following the 2026 Global Soccer Tournament, a milestone that underscores Arlington’s growing reputation as a world-class destination for sports and entertainment. The addition of Dick’s House of Sport fits neatly into that identity, giving residents and visitors alike another reason to spend time — and celebrate an active lifestyle — right here in the city.

The Parks Mall, located on South Cooper Street, has long been a retail hub for Arlington families, and the arrival of Dick’s House of Sport signals continued investment in the center’s future. Whether you’re gearing up for the upcoming school sports season, looking for fitness equipment, or simply curious about what the new format has to offer, the doors are open and ready to welcome the community.

Arlington Parks also has a full slate of August events on the calendar, giving residents even more ways to stay active and enjoy the final weeks of summer. It’s shaping up to be a busy and exciting season for the city.
