Get ready to take to the skies, thrill seekers! Kentucky Kingdom unveils its newest attraction in 2026: Flying Fox, a high-flying suspended roller coaster inspired by the daring spirit of crop dusting daredevils. Combining heart-pounding thrills with immersive storytelling, this ride takes you into the skies alongside Jeb Fox, a bold pilot with a legacy written in the clouds.
When Flying Fox takes off in 2026, Kentucky Kingdom soars to the top with more roller coasters than any other park in the Bluegrass state! A timeless aviation adventure packed with modern twists, your family and you ascend more than six stories before diving into a twisted drop and an adrenaline-charged underground tunnel, reaching speeds of up to 37 miles per hour on a more than a quarter-mile journey. Along the way, you loop, dive, and skim over the fields below through a sweeping horseshoe turn, a high-speed spiral, and a panoramic S-curve that showcases views of the surrounding park.
Flying Fox is more than a coaster, it’s a tribute to Kentucky’s farming heritage, a nod to aviation history, and a pulse-racing adventure all in one. With Flying Fox, Kentucky Kingdom honors that spirit of innovation and adventure, bringing the daring maneuvers and fearless feats of crop dusters to life for a new generation of thrill seekers.
With immersive theming, storytelling, and dynamic ride elements, it’s designed to delight families, thrill enthusiasts, and anyone who craves a one-of-a-kind experience, from the young to the young at heart.
Meet Jeb Fox, son of Douglas Fox, a legendary crop duster known for his bold aerial stunts. Growing up with dreams of the cockpit, Jeb’s determination never wavered. Now a skilled pilot in his own right, Jeb invites you to join him on a training flight aboard his trusty biplane, the Flying Fox.
As you strap in, you’ll step into Jeb’s world of grit, precision, and adrenaline-fueled fun. Will you have what it takes to soar through the skies like a true ag pilot?
Flying Fox debuts in 2026, and it’s already shaping up to be one of the Kentucky Kingdom’s most anticipated rides ever. Whether you’re a local or planning a road trip to Louisville, this high-flying adventure is one you won’t want to miss.
Stay tuned for more details as opening day approaches, and get ready to take to the skies with the Flying Fox!
