Clifton Hill, the entertainment district of Niagara Falls (ON, Canada) has a new attraction in its line up: the Carnival Chaos: Hyper Ride. This long awaited first official version of Triotech’s Hyper Ride recently welcomed its first guests.
Carnival Chaos: Hyper Ride is an interactive, motion-based dark ride, a first for Canada. “Clifton Hill has now opened the Carnival Chaos: Hyper Ride, offering a first-of-its-kind dark ride experience in Niagara Falls, Canada.” stated Harry Oakes, President of Clifton Hill: Fun by the Falls in a press-release. In the attraction, guests will roam the grounds of a freakish carnival, chased by evil clowns and supernatural beings.
The Hyper Ride is Triotech’s version of a motion-based dark ride. The attraction features a ride system by Italian manufacturer Gosetto with motion seats by Triotech. It is capable of high acceleration, fast rotations and intense seat-motion, making it a thrilling dark ride vehicle. The attraction was awarded the Brass Ring-award for “Best New Product: Major Ride/Attraction – Product cost of US$2 to US$5 million” on the 2021 IAAPA Expo in Orlando.
“Hyper Ride is a unique award-winning attraction that changes the game for Location Based Entertainment venues,” adds Ernest Yale, President and CEO of Triotech to the press-release. “This attraction delivers a destination park level experience but for a fraction of the investment and space requirements. We have several such projects in the planning stage.”
Carnival Chaos is the first official installation of the Hyper Ride, although a prototype was already in operation at La Tete Dans les Nuages Aeroville (France). Team DRdb was able to visit the prototype last summer, check out our report for a closer look at the attraction.
