The McKinney Visitor Center is a welcoming first stop with maps, local advice, and a shop full of McKinney and Texas goods. Guide, app, and a friendly hello, all in one place.
A Brick-and-Mortar Welcome to McKinney
Located in Historic Downtown at 200 W. Virginia Street, the Visitor Center is designed to be a welcoming place where visitors and residents get a taste of what awaits in the community. The Visitors Center makes a great first stop for information and recommendations, and a great last stop for one of a kind gifts and keepsakes. The shop carries McKinney and Texas themed souvenirs including t-shirts, sweatshirts, hats, keychains, magnets, mugs, and more. It is also a great place to pick up free brochures, guides, and maps. Be sure to ask for recommendations for restaurants and fun things to do.
Staff are on site to answer questions and help make the most of a trip, and the center is where Visit McKinney's free guided walking tours begin — downtown history, public art, and Tiny Doors.
The Printed One-Stop-Shop for a McKinney Weekend
While at the Visitors Center pick up a McKinney Visitor Guide for information about the city. The Visitor Guide covers information from the city’s rich history, dating back to 1848. Learn about the vibrant art scene, with information about the guided mural walks and galleries. Check out one of the many music venues for a fun nightlife experience. Get moving during the morning at one of McKinney’s parks or miles of trails. Learn about the other districts that make up McKinney outside of the Historic Downtown Square. Plan a day complete with shopping and dining, and plan accommodations for winding down afterward.
Read the digital edition on any device, or request a physical copy and the team will mail one to the address listed (continental U.S. only).
