The two new rides are both classic HUSS flat rides, a troika called Mustang Runner, which features three arms with seven gondolas per arm turn one way while the base of the ride spins the other way, and a HUSS condor called Falcon’s Flight, which the park bills as “A hair-raising thrill at nearly 100 feet above the ground.”

“We couldn’t be more pleased to add two new rides for guests to enjoy. These classic amusement park rides will add thrills unlike anything in the Midwest.” said Worlds of Fun General Manager, Frank Wilburn.

But that’s not all. Families will be able to ring in the holidays next season and enjoy what is sure to be a new family tradition. WinterFest is coming to Worlds of Fun, showcasing 14 favorite holiday characters, spectacular light displays, ice skating, and festive live entertainment. The park will be transformed into a winter wonderland for six weeks beginning November 24, 2017.

“While rides and water slides are the focus for the summer, we pride ourselves on creating memories for families. What better way to create more memories than during Winterfest by starting a new holiday family tradition in Kansas City,” Wilburn added.

Worlds of Fun will also redesign their front gate in 2017 to improve the overall guest experience at the park.
