It will be interesting to see if the current drive In craze lasts, especially if movie theaters don’t bounce back.

Honestly think it's a dumb addition. Doesn't meet any needs the park has other than "capacity" and fills no niche that wasn't unfilled. They need indoor attractions in the worst way.

Cedar Point:
All new beach area, restaurant/bar and spinning mouse coaster announced for Cedar Point in 2023. Scrambler and matterhorn will be moved to the new midway. Tiki twirl will once again be themed to calypso.
Worlds Of Fun:
Zambezi Zinger - new GCI steel coaster with spiral lift.
Carowinds:
Air Racer
Do you have what it takes to maneuver these speedsters of the skies? Hop in a vehicle of your choice and race and roll through the obstacles recreated from heroic tales of ace pilots high in the Carolina sky. Air Racer delivers an exciting ride combined with impressive visuals due to its uniquely designed experience.
Gear Spin
What if a ginormous, red-hot propulsion engine—normally used to thrust an aircraft through the atmosphere—was outfitted with seats for riders? What if the engine’s extreme power and force created a speeding, spinning adventure reserved for only the bravest riders? Say hello to Gear Spin.
Hover & Dodge
Aspiring hovercraft pilots can learn the ropes in the specially designed, cosmic training ground. But there is a wacky twist: In this futuristic version of bumper cars, these are transformed hot rods into hovercrafts—and they are prone to malfunction and bump into each for a high-larious time.
Air Walker
Our aviation experts are testing the limits of an experimental aircraft engine and need your help. New lift and propulsion technologies simulated in this rotating ride can make planes faster but sometimes unstable. Willing to take a spin and put the latest and greatest thrill machine to the test?
Gyro Force
Located inside secret testing grounds, the X-J1 is used to evaluate new lift and propulsion technologies. The wild experimental engine design on this experience is bigger and faster, and maybe a little unstable, and requires brave test pilots daily to help advance this exciting research.
Canada’s Wonderland:
Tundra Twister is a giant looping and twisting mechanical marvel by Mondial - the only one of its kind in the world! 🎢 And Snoopy's Racing Railway is a family launch coaster that will be the park's 18th roller coaster.
Knott’s Berry Farm:
The new Fiesta Village will reopen in Summer 2023, showcasing enhanced themes and beautiful décor across three new zones in the area, including brand-new food locations, an updated stage, and a redesigned marketplace. Montezooma's Revenge is also being reimagined and rethemed with exciting new thrills! The new updates allow guests to be completely surprised by the direction the train will take them at the start of each ride. The randomized launch sequence will make it impossible for anyone to know their destiny until it is too late to escape the clutches of Montezooma. Only those brave enough can make it through the final challenge and find themselves at the home of the hidden Aztec treasure in MonteZOOMa: The Forbidden Fortress.
