Canada's Wonderland opens for the upcoming season in less than a month. That means the CW team is working tirelessly to ensure everything is ready for when it opens its doors. Want a sneak peek? Canada's Wonderland has dropped all its exciting highlights, including its sizzling summer event lineup and new live entertainment. Canada's beloved amusement park is set to open on May 3, 2026. There's plenty of time to plan your itinerary for your first day back on the park grounds. Of course, your day would not be complete without checking out its newly upgraded coaster . The inverted roller coaster once known as Flight Deck will debut in early summer as The DareDeviler. It's re‑themed to align with the original vision of the Grande World Expo area. "Guests can relive the daring spirit of early aviation as they soar, dive, and twist through the legacy of a legendary stunt plane built to thrill the world," shares Canada's Wonderland. And of course, there's the record-breaking AlpenFury, which debuted last year, if you haven't yet been launched off it. What's new at Canada's Wonderland? Along with the new rides, there are a number of summer events happening at the park. The lineup includes: Season Passholder Preview (May 1, 2026) – Season Passholders to get exclusive first access to the park before opening day.
