“Six Flags Qiddiya is one of Six Flags’ most ambitious international projects to date. When it opens in early 2023, it will be part of a larger revitalization project aiming to turn an area of Riyadh into a globally recognized resort destination,” states Thrillist.

At its fastest point it will break through a rock tunnel, with red and yellow light circles. The coaster is still in the design phase and it is already wowing people around the world with the 3 world records it will be breaking. The amusement park will also hold the world’s tallest drop tower named Sirocco Tower. 

“As for the park, Six Flags Qiddiya will feature 28 rides and attractions across six themed lands: The City of Thrills; Discovery Springs; Steam Town; Twilight Gardens; Valley of Fortune; and Grand Exposition. Appropriately, the Falcon’s Flight will be part of the City of Thrills, along with Sirocco Tower, which will be the world’s tallest drop-tower ride,” wrote CNN Travel.
