The story of Mamba

Worlds of Fun announced Mamba in September 1997, and the new steel coaster opened to visitors on April 18, 1998. coasterpedia.net· worldsoffun.enchantedparks.com

Its arrival was a substantial addition to the Kansas City park. At the time of its debut, Mamba was described as one of the tallest, fastest, and longest coasters in the world. gbateam.com· worldsoffun.enchantedparks.com

The project called for careful structural and civil work beneath the sweeping steel track. GBA provided foundation, station, site-development, and construction-administration services for the undertaking. gbateam.com

Mamba remains in operation at Worlds of Fun. The park continues to point visitors towards its broad views across the grounds and out towards downtown Kansas City. worldsoffun.enchantedparks.com
