The Mattel Adventure Park should be opening in 2024 on the heels of a popular Barbie movie as the first fully themed indoor/outdoor amusement park in Arizona.
We have now seen some video of Hot Wheels Bone Shaker cars, and it looks pretty awesome, it has a 85ft lift and this is a rooftop ride that looks over the sides of the roof actually over the park itself. It will go into a double helix at the end, and we have seen what the track looks like. The Twin Mill is actually the thrill coaster though, and it will be a launch coaster where you get shot out of a tunnel into some loops with some other thrills before it comes back into the park indoors. These are legit coasters they are building here.
The Barbie beach house will be huge at over 30k square feet, 3 floors, glass elevator and retail right in the house. Not only that, but there is going to be a restaurant within the house as well. There is also a Barbie dream flight to round out the experiences. There will also be some awesome mini golf, but for us, we are most looking forward to the Masters of the Universe laser tag arena where you can fight for Eternia in the Castle Grayskull fortress.
You can find more information about the Mattel Adventure Park over at their Facebook page, which you can find below. This is going to be a destination park and we hope it just keeps getting bigger and bigger.
Pulse-pounding Hot Wheels rollercoasters and a life-size Barbie Beach House™ are just a few of the attractions underway at Mattel Adventure Park™, which will become Arizona’s first fully themed indoor/outdoor amusement park upon opening in 2024.
Set to open just south of State Farm Stadium in Glendale at VAI Resort, Mattel Adventure Park will welcome guests 365 days a year, serving as a year-round Arizona entertainment destination showcasing the full spectrum of the iconic toymaker’s expansive portfolio of brands. The uniquely designed, massive, 9-acre park combines inspiration from Mattel, Epic Resort Destinations, and other industry-leading partners in amusements and entertainment. Substantially indoors, the park’s attractions load and unload inside a fully air-conditioned space, making the park a comfortable, family-friendly destination at any time of year.
Mattel Adventure Park includes two fully themed Hot Wheels rollercoasters – Hot Wheels Bone Shaker™: The Ultimate Ride and the Hot Wheels Twin Mill™ Racer. Designed to delight kids and adults of all ages, the Hot Wheels Bone Shaker themed ride will be the first-ever family coaster to feature the famous hot rod’s skull design that climbs 84 feet in the air, while the double-looping Hot Wheels Twin Mill Racer guarantees a serious adrenaline boost for guests seeking an even higher-octane experience. The Hot Wheels Twin Mill Racer features a double loop and two corkscrews, qualifying it as the first coaster of its kind in Arizona.
