About Canada's Wonderland
Canada's Wonderland is one of the country's premier amusement parks, located in Vaughan, Ontario, just north of Toronto. Opened in 1981, it spans over 330 acres and attracts millions of visitors annually during its seasonal operation from spring to fall.
The park features over 200 attractions including 17 roller coasters, making it home to one of the largest collections of coasters in North America. Among its most famous thrill rides are Leviathan and Behemoth, both ranking among the world's tallest and fastest roller coasters. Leviathan, standing at 306 feet tall with speeds reaching 92 mph, provides breathtaking views of Toronto's skyline before plunging riders down an 80-degree drop.
Beyond roller coasters, Canada's Wonderland offers family-friendly areas like Planet Snoopy and KidZville, featuring gentler rides for younger visitors. The park also includes Splash Works, a 20-acre water park with slides, wave pools, and lounging areas.
Throughout the season, Canada's Wonderland hosts various events including Halloween Haunt in autumn and WinterFest during the holiday season, featuring festive decorations, ice skating, and seasonal entertainment.
The park's iconic mountain centerpiece, Wonder Mountain, houses Guardian, an interactive 4D dark ride, and serves as the backdrop for spectacular evening fountain and light shows.
With its diverse attractions, seasonal events, and proximity to Toronto, Canada's Wonderland remains a beloved destination for thrill-seekers and families alike, continuing to expand with new rides and experiences almost every season.
