Southern California theme parks are experiencing a lean year for roller coasters, with no new additions planned for 2025 after a single kiddie coaster last year. However, 2026 promises a revival with three parks announcing new coasters, the most since 2004. Legoland California will introduce its first indoor coaster with a space theme, while Universal Studios Hollywood is constructing the innovative Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift coaster. Six Flags Magic Mountain also plans to launch a unique coaster, responding to the growing demand among roller coaster enthusiasts.
None of the top seven theme parks in Southern California are planning to open new roller coasters in 2025, marking a notable downturn for coaster fans.
Legoland has confirmed plans for a new indoor roller coaster, expected to have a space theme. It's the park's first addition of this type since 2004.
Universal is set to debut the Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift coaster in 2026, promising to be the first spinning coaster of its kind in North America.
Six Flags Magic Mountain is also introducing a first-of-its-kind coaster in North America for 2026, adding to the excitement for coaster enthusiasts.
