A new ride has appeared on site at The Adventuredome. From the looks of it, it looks to be a Zamperla NebulaZ!Nothing was announced by the park, but the ride is clearly visible in public view.

If you are wondering what location the ride is being built at, it is being placed where the old lower reservoir for Rim Runner was, the right turn before the lift hill. Recently, it was used as a roller skating rink.

The location of the ride, you can see the foundation is completed and the center hub is on its side.

I'll be there 9/14 - 9/17. Balls. Guess I still have the Stratosphere and the Togo masterpiece at least.

Interesting with how hard Vegas has been hit that they have moved forward with building a new ride.

The water park slides expansion and new ride were probably planned and purchased back when Phil Ruffin purchased Circus Circus before COVID struck, so they likely couldn't back out. Phil is Trump's good friend anyway, so he can't let a fake virus keep him from his improvement plans The place kind of needed something new, and they could always use the new additions to steal market share so it is not a complete loss in a bad year.

Last weekend I decided to take a lap around the Adventuredome.

The unannounced new ride (the model is a Zamperla NebulaZ) is now vertical and it looks like the ride’s queue will go through part of the trough of the old chute the chutes ride, Rim Runner.

Neon Nights is still going on, on weekends, they shut off all of the parks general lighting and play up beat party music.

The park isn’t very busy, but actually comfortable and for the most part people are social distancing and doing their part.

Canyon Blaster is running really well and so is El Loco.

I did notice a pricing change and that individual ride tickets are no longer available, the only thing available for sale is All Day Wristbands. 

[coasterbill 143]

I can’t believe Chaos is still running but as long as they keep running it we’ll keep popping in for a ride whenever we find ourselves in Vegas.

[Rusty Nail 0]

When was the last time they ran Fun House Express?

[COASTER FREAK 11 4]

Any news of the park removing the rest of the rock?

[Mr Stratosphere 8]

Made a quick lap through The Adventuredome and the NebulaZ is fully built. Enjoy the photos below!

It’ll be a nice addition to the park! 

This is the bottom of Rim Runner’s lift 

[coasterbill 143]

I didn’t realize that much of Rim Runner was still there since I only go there at night to ride Chaos and leave. 

[Mr Stratosphere 8]

Yeah the lift, upper trough and pre-drop are still in place.

I have always loved the look and the cycling of that NebulaZ, when I first saw it demoed at the convention Robb & TPR covers for us. Sorry, forget it's Official Name.  It's an age thing and that's my excuse.

But I always thought that this would a great flat ride to have at Playland in Vancouver. When they started enlarging the park. And adding new rides and attractions, etc.

great pics. . and as I noted on the TPR FB page. . I absolutely love the "headchopper" effect the A/C pipes give on NebulaZ

 

can't wait to see it in action in the park.

[bert425 39]

hurm. . . new reports went from "shooting on Strip near Circus Circus" to "shooting took place inside Circus Circus" to now saying it happened inside AdventureDome?

how did the guns get in?  Thought you have to go thru security scanners at the entrance (at least we did when we went a few years ago).

I hope they recover.

^There are some videos online that are pretty crazy. It basically seems like the Las Vegas strip is going crazy every weekend now, and not in a good way.

[coasterbill 143]

Yeah, that sounds like the Adventuredome to me...

It was at one of the entrances to the Adventuredome.  The ferris wheel can be seen right behind the kerfuffle.  Pretty pathetic people discharging a firearm so close to children having fun.
