Park News -
2027 - New Attraction - Under Construction - (8/8/2026) So what is Lagoon up to for 2027? There is now a racing themed banner up at the park by the former Jet Star 2 site that says, “Ready. Set. 2027”. Now the Flying Aces attraction, a classic Flying Scooter ride, has been taken down, freeing up land next to the back half of Jet Star 2 site. While it’s possible they’ve just taken it down for refurbishment, it is also likely that the park may be planning on moving it elsewhere in the park to make more room for whatever they have planned for 2027. You can catch some of this action in the video clip below.
???? - Next Roller Coaster - (9/19/2026) It’s been awhile since we’ve heard anything about new possible ride plans from Lagoon, especially when it comes to roller coasters. But since the park did just remove their classic Jet Star 2… the general belief is that the park may be planning to add a new coaster to replace it. That said… Lagoon has been a very interesting park to watch when it comes to roller coasters, as they’ve proven to be a park that has not only been very actively involved with the creation of their new coasters, but also a park that doesn’t seem willing to just buy any old thing off-the-shelf, preferring to add their own unique creations like Primordial, Cannibal and Wicked. Rides that roller coaster lovers can just look at a photo of and know immediately that they are from Lagoon and nowhere else. So what is next for Lagoon? Well…history has also proven that Lagoon has no problem with taking their sweet time to get the ride that they really want… so I would be surprised if they had something ready to go already for 2027. Instead I’d think a bit more long term… though one early rumor I’ve heard whispered suggests that they may be talking with Premier Rides about a possible launched coaster. Has anyone else heard this or something else entirely? It might be worth keeping eyes open at IAAPA this year to see who else Lagoon park reps are talking with on the show floor.
