As Canada’s fastest roller coaster, the ThunderVolt experience carries 12 passengers at a time through a supernatural environment with extraordinary animals, graphics and lighting that pulses as the ride system charges, leading up to its launch. Set to open in July, the three-car train blasts off with 1.3 Gs of acceleration through an illuminated tunnel, up a steep incline before an 18-meter drop!
From the iconic Wooden Roller Coaster to the heart-stopping Hellevator, guests will see many of their favourite rides back for another year. No visit to Playland is complete without some yummy food and guests will come across offerings such as hot dogs, cotton candy, mini donuts, so much more!
