Here Is What Dr Pepper Museum CEO Chris Dyer Says About The Milestone

More than 200,000 people visited the iconic museum last year, marking a new record as the most visited year in its 35-year history. Chris Dyer, president and CEO of the Dr Pepper Museum, stated, “We’ve seen steady growth over the past several years, and 2025 was truly a milestone.”

Dr Pepper Is Not Just A Regular Soft Drink Here In Texas

Dyer went on to say that this growth pushes the museum to continue evolving in order to serve the community and tourism best, while honoring the history that began there. As the museum continues to grow, two new exhibits opened last year to share even more of the story and history of Dr Pepper. It’s not just a soft drink here in Texas—it’s a part of history and now officially record-breaking.
