Where does the word theme park come from?

The term "theme park" originated in the United States in the mid-20th century to describe a type of amusement park that integrated attractions, rides, and experiences around a central theme or concept. The first true theme park was Disneyland, which opened in Anaheim, California in 1955. Walt Disney coined the term "theme park" to distinguish it from traditional amusement parks, which offered a haphazard selection of rides and games with no overarching narrative. Disneyland's theme was based on a combination of Renaissance fair and Americana, featuring iconic attractions such as the Matterhorn Bobsleds and Disneyland Railroad, all married to the park's overarching narrative of a 19th-century Western town. Since then, theme parks worldwide have followed Disney's example, with popular destinations such as Universal Studios, Warner Bros. Studios, and SeaWorld all incorporating themes and storylines to create immersive, highly themed experiences for visitors.
