The wait is finally over! Kings Dominion’s newest thrill ride, Delirium, made its public debut with the parks 2016 season opening on Friday, March 25.
Construction of the new ride began in the fall of 2015 in the Candy Apple Grove section of the park.
Delirium is a powerful, spinning pendulum on which 40 riders are strapped into their seats, facing outward on a giant ring. As their feet dangle, they begin slowly swinging back and forth while the ring starts to rotate. The ride quickly gains momentum and before they know it, riders are getting swirling views of the park. On Delirium, guests soar to a height of 115 feet at a maximum arc angle of 120 degrees.
Delirium will delight thrill-seekers of all ages as they fly through the air, experiencing gravity defying hang time.
“We want Kings Dominion to continue to be the top destination for thrill-seekers and families alike. The opening of Delirium marks our continued commitment to providing those thrills for the entire family to enjoy,” says Pat Jones, Vice President and General Manager of Kings Dominion. “Delirium is a unique, exciting ride unlike any other in our park and it’s a fantastic addition to Candy Apple Grove.”
Additional upgrades were made to Candy Apple Grove including a renovated restroom complex and the addition of a shaded garden seating area.
Kings Dominion opened to the public for its 42nd season on Friday, March 25th. Kings Dominion is located in Doswell, Virginia, just off I-95, exit 98.
