One of Kings Island’s Most Overlooked Rides Quietly Turned 35
About this episode
The episode discusses the legacy and significance of Adventure Express at Kings Island as it celebrates its 35th anniversary.
Adventure Express is celebrating 35 years at Adventure Express, and in this episode of Tower Topics, Ryan and Don Helbig break down why this underrated mine train coaster remains one of the most important rides in Kings Island history. From its legendary night rides and Adventure Port theming upgrades to its role as the perfect “first big coaster,” the duo explores the ride’s legacy, behind-the-scenes fun facts, and why fans still love it 35 years later. Plus, they discuss the lack of anniversary recognition for Adventure Express, the Grand Carousel turning 100, theme park entertainment at parks like Busch Gardens Williamsburg and Dollywood, and highlight one of the best night ride experiences at Kings Island.
