Michigan's Adventure: Beach Party 2011


Recommended Posts

Michigan's Adventure stated via their facebook page that they had a special visitor in the park today to help with their new addition for 2011.

Hopefully its a new ride and a path connecting Shivering Timbers to Thunderhawk. Hard to imagine CF's only new coaster for 2011 going in at MA so I think this will either be a water park addition or a new flat.

So what Cedar Fair parks have not announced anything yet for 2011? Kings Dominion and California`s Great America?

Carowinds- Snoopy`s Starlight Spectacular

Michigan`s Adventure- Beach Party

Dorney Park: Planet Snoopy

Valleyfair: Planet Snoopy

Worlds of Fun: Planet Snoopy & former Geauga Lake Carousel

Cedar Point: WindSeeker

Kings Island: WindSeeker

Knott`s Berry Farm: WindSeeker

Canada`s Wonderland: WindSeeker.

And unless Kings Dominion gets a new coaster (unlikely since they got I305 this past year), or California`s Great America gets a coaster (also unlikely due to the ongoing 49ers stadium fiasco), then Cedar Fair will NOT be installing any new roller coasters in 2011!

That hasn't happened since 1995.

1996: Mantis & Wild Thing

1997: Steel Force

1998: GhostRider & Mamba

1999: Woodstock Express (CP) & Mad Mouse (VF)

2000: Millennium Force, Woodstock Express & Wild Mouse (DP), Boomerang

2001: Talon

2002: Wicked Twister & Xcelerator

2003: Top Thrill Dragster & Steel Venom

2004: Silver Bullet & Spinning Dragons

2005: Hydra

2006: Patriot

2007: Renegade, Maverick, Firehawk

2008: Possessed, Dominator, Thunderhawk, Pony Express

2009: Diamondback, Carolina Cobra, Prowler

2010: Intimidator, Intimidator 305

2011: ????

I'm sure I missed a few in there too, but the point stands that this looks to be the end of a long run. Might not be overly surprising since the company stated it tried to cancel the Intimidator projects last year.

We haven't heard about anything for GL's WildWater Kingdom, either... ;)

Apparently MIA had their best year ever last year.

At the same time, park owners Cedar Fair Entertainment Co. announced that Michigan’s Adventure had a record year in attendance in 2010. The publicly held company that operates 11 amusement parks does not release specific park attendance statistics, but well more than 500,000 people visit Michigan’s Adventure each summer.

I visited in late July on a rainy day and both the parking attendant and the lady in admissions made comments about how busy it had been this year. Good to hear that they are doing well it really is a nice little park.

I believe CF stated during one of their recent conference calls that Carowinds also broke their seasonal attendance record this year.
