larrygator Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 (edited) My apologies, I did not realize this thread had not been released yet. Just like we did for 2011 - 2019 this thread will serve as a place to house a list of "what's new" for 2020 at major parks and links to the announcements. We encourage you to notify us of any new rides/coasters by posting in this thread. Discussions about individual rides and parks should continue in the appropriate discussion thread through the links in this thread. If you think we missed anything let me know and I'll add all verifiable attractions. Rumors will not be included. We also don't plan to list every random out of the way upcoming attraction, so outside of major announcements this is limited to parks TPR has covered (or will likely cover in the future) in the Park Index.

Canobie Coaster Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 Thanks for compiling this! I think the entry for Walibi Holland should be for Walibi Belgium. Is it worth mentioning some of the rides that just barely opened at the end of 2019 like Fun Spot Kissimmee's Hurricane? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nrthwnd Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 Great list you've put together, Larry! Thanks for doing this. An addition to this list? There's also the new Happy Ride w/Baymax flat ride, that's opening the same time as Beauty/Beast in Tokyo Disneyland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's also the new Happy Ride w/Baymax flat ride, that's opening the same time as Beauty/Beast in Tokyo Disneyland. I saw a reference to a Baymax meet and greet in one thread, In my free time I'll look again in the TDL thread. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 ^It's basically Tow Mater's Junkyard Jamboree but themed to Baymax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoulderDash Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Nice list! One addition would be Venus Vortex at Lake Compounce. https://www.lakecompounce.com/venusvortex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satans Hockey Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 So many great new additions next year, it's wild to see that every SeaWorld and Busch park is getting a new coaster next year. Jersey Devil Coaster, Iron Gwazi and Mickey and Minnie's runaway railway are the ones I'm looking forward to the most for parks I'll be visiting. I'll probably avoid trying to see most pictures from it but really looking forward to Nintendo Land in Japan as well but I don't see myself making it over there next year to see it.

JJLehto Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Gunna be a great year! Cant wait for Orion, Jersey Devil, Iron Gwazi, Pantheon and Ice Breaker which looks pretty fun. These are just what I can easily do! Gotta try and fit in Hershey and some of the 2019 rides I missed! Thanks for the thread! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jedimaster1227 Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 I totally forgot about F.L.Y. at Phantasialand! Thanks for putting this together Larry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throatytoast Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 This compilation list is the best thing I've seen all day. Is that F.L.Y. at Phantasialand the same thing as this Rookburgh thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larrygator Posted January 5, 2020 Author Share Posted January 5, 2020 (edited) This compilation list is the best thing I've seen all day. Is that F.L.Y. at Phantasialand the same thing as this Rookburgh thing? Rookburgh is the steam punk themed area that will include the new F.L.Y. coaster from Vekoma. A new hotel, the Charles Lindbergh hotel, is being built alongside Rookburgh. Edited January 5, 2020 by larrygator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
