The story of Jurassic World VelociCoaster
Universal Creative developed the attraction with Intamin as a major new steel coaster for Islands of Adventure. Its design combines two launches with a tall climb, steep descent and a course that crosses the park's lagoon district. corporate.universaldestinationsandexperiences.com· coasterpedia.net
Construction advanced through the park's closure, when the quiet paths made it easier for heavy equipment and track sections to move through the site. The finished railway was tested before the public opening in 2021. coasterpedia.net· behindthethrills.com
VelociCoaster opened at Islands of Adventure on June 10, 2021. Early visitors and the amusement-park press praised its rapid dispatches, forceful launches and ambitious engineering, and it placed second in Amusement Today's 2021 Golden Ticket Awards for Best New Roller Coaster. corporate.universaldestinationsandexperiences.com· amusementtoday.com
