Kings Dominion is an amusement park in Doswell, Virginia, United States, twenty miles (30 km) north of Richmond and 75 miles (120 km) south of Washington, D.C. Owned and operated by Six Flags, the 280-acre (1.1 km 2) park opened to the public on May 3, 1975, [1] and features more than 60 rides, shows and attractions including 13 roller coasters and a 20-acre (8.1 ha) water park.
In 1999, Kings Dominion closed Nickelodeon Splat City in preparation for the opening of its 2000 attraction, Nickelodeon Central. Nickelodeon Central brought a retheme of many of the park's children's rides as well as the addition of new ones. Kings Island followed suit, closing its Splat City in 2000 and opening Nickelodeon Central in 2001.
The merger of Kings Dominion’s owner with amusement park giant Six Flags became official Monday. It’s the fifth owner in the park’s 49-year-history.
Kings Dominion announced plans on August 20, 2009, to build a new roller coaster called Intimidator 305 for the 2010 season. [6] [9] The new ride would be a Giga Coaster model from Swiss manufacturer Intamin exceeding 300 feet (91 m) in height. [6]
The system was first called Ticket to Ride and was later renamed FreeWay. It was discontinued in 2004 due to negative reception, as guests were uncomfortable with the park "sanctioning line-jumping". [6] Fast Lane received higher marks when assessed internally by Cedar Fair, and the system has been in place at all Cedar Fair parks since 2012. [3]
