icon_STOPPark News - (11/6/2025) Believe it or not, but it seems Cedar Point was being scouted by terrorists to determine if it could be used as the site for an attack. A group of suspected terrorists were arrested in Michigan before they could carry out another planned attack on a LGBTQ+ club in Detroit were under FBI surveillance and arrested before they could strike. Though it was confirmed that the group had arrived to scout Cedar Point back in mid-September search history data on a seized computer asking about crowd levels at the park during the Halloweekend event.
    Kind of scary to think about what could have happened.
 
    (8/16/2025) I missed posting this story last week as my home was without internet for several days, but apparently a cable broke on Power Tower at Cedar Point on Sunday evening last weekend. The ride did exactly as it was designed to do, and came to an immediate stop and then slowly returned the riders down to the bottom to be unloaded, so there was no chance of an injury.
    Power Tower features four ride towers, each able to operate independently from each other, two run in Space Shot mode and the other two operate in Turbo Drop mode at any given time, but currently it has been said that the entire Power Tower (all four towers) have been closed since the cable break as a precaution, and likely to allow for all the other cables to undergo inspection before reopening the attraction. I’m not sure of the timeline required to replace the cables on a tower, but in theory it is likely that we’ll see Power Tower reopen with 3 of the four towers running until they have the time and equipment needed to replace the broken cable, possibly after the park begins to close on most weekdays after Labor Day weekend.

 

2026 - Nothing is known at this point in time...

 

icon_STOP???? - New Attraction Guest Survey Concepts - (10/18/2025) Six Flags has begun sending out surveys to select guests to get feedback about possible future addition concepts that may be in the works. Keep in mind that not every concept they pitch for any given park may actually be intended for that particular park, as sometimes the chains will pitch ride concepts to other markets as well to gain some broader feedback on certain concepts. With that said… let’s dig into what is currently being pitched for the various parks.
    The survey for Cedar Point proposed something no one expected… a Vekoma Suspended Thrill Glider coaster. Yes, this seems to be the very coaster that everyone has been waiting to see pop up at Six Flags Magic Mountain. It was first expected for the 2025 season, then semi-pitched by corporate as coming in 2026 instead, only all work on the site in California came to a haunt as the clearing was finished. The big issue against this going to Cedar Point is that the Ohio park just added two back to back major coasters, Top Thrill 2 which opened briefly in 2024 only to complications forcing a relaunch in 2025 alongside Siren’s Curse in 2025. With that in mind, it may be a couple more years until Cedar Point really needs a new coaster.
    Other attractions proposed include a Vekoma Multi-Launch Family Coaster, a family friendly coaster and proposals for new shows such as a Nighttime Spectacular or daytime Stunt Spectacular.
