Future

Adventure World announces a new major attraction typically every two seasons, but this is not guaranteed nor a policy, it's more of a coincidence, or loose goal to aim for. More recently new rides are codenamed "MI" (Major Impact) followed by a number (in sequential order). There is currently a new ride scheduled for summer 2022 in dragon kingdom for the 22/23 Season, currently the Yarlis Dragon Chase ride type is unknown and the manufacturer is Zamperla.


Food and beverage outlets

Adventure World has many food outlets. These are: * Dragon's Bites (presently N/A) * Scream 'n' Eats * Sweet Treats * Surf Shack * Kahuna Cafe * Full of Beans * Tiki Bar
