Canada's Wonderland is gearing up for an exciting 2026 season with the launch of The DareDeviler roller coaster and a variety of summer events.

Canada’s Wonderland is set to unveil a re-themed roller coaster, The DareDeviler, when it opens for the 2026 season on May 3. Alongside this thrilling attraction, the park will host a lineup of engaging summer events aimed at families and thrill-seekers alike.

Key events for the summer:

  • The Brew and BBQ festival will take place on June 6-7, 13-14, and 20-21, featuring over 50 craft beers, ciders, and seltzers.
  • Fireworks displays are scheduled for May 17, July 1, and September 6, adding sparkle to the summer nights.
  • KidZfest will run from July 22 to August 2, providing fun activities for young visitors.
  • Oktoberfest will occur on select dates from September 11 to 20, celebrating German culture with food and entertainment.
  • The new WinterFest starts on November 21, extending the park’s offerings into the colder months.

Heather Hill, a spokesperson for Canada’s Wonderland, expressed enthusiasm about the new ride. “We’re excited to breathe new life into one of our classic roller coasters,” she said. With The DareDeviler—formerly known as Flight Deck—guests can expect a smoother experience as they embark on this thrilling journey. This re-themed ride promises to elevate the thrill experience with its advanced design.

The park also boasts attractions like AlpenFury, Canada’s longest, tallest, and fastest launch coaster. Its debut last year continues to be a highlight among roller coaster enthusiasts. Visitors can enjoy various experiences in Splash Works starting May 23, which features 18 slides, cliff jumping, water playgrounds, and more.

As part of its commitment to safety and enjoyment, Canada’s Wonderland will implement a chaperone policy starting May 1. This policy requires guests aged 15 or younger to be accompanied by a chaperone who is at least 21 years old. Each chaperone can supervise up to 10 guests.

Season passes are available online for just $89, allowing unlimited access to the park and its events through Labour Day. This is a fantastic opportunity for families eager to enjoy everything that Canada’s Wonderland has to offer throughout the summer.

With these exciting developments on the horizon, Canada’s Wonderland aims to create memorable experiences for all visitors in 2026. As preparations continue, many are eager to see how these attractions will enhance their visits.
