Canada's Wonderland is a 330-acre theme park located in
Vaughan, Ontario, Canada, a suburb directly north of Toronto. Originally opened
by the Taft Broadcasting Company and The Great-West Life Assurance Company in
1981, the park is owned and operated by Cedar Fair since 2006. It is the first
major theme park in Canada and remains the country's largest. The park was
known as Paramount Canada's Wonderland from 1994 to 2006, while it was owned by
Paramount Parks. Canada's Wonderland is open daily from May to September, and
then only on weekends until the end of October.
The park has 16 roller coasters more than any other park
outside of the United States and has the second-most in the world. It also
features a 20-acre water park called Splash Works and its fall season includes
Halloween Haunt, a Halloween-themed event featuring haunted attractions in
areas throughout the park. The Cedar Fair Park has been the most visited
seasonal theme park in North America for several consecutive years. It is also
the second-most visited overall in the Cedar Fair chain with 3,481,000 million
visitors in 2011.
