New Florida Theme Park Attractions 2016

Here is my pick of the Orlando attractions new for 2016. 

Walt Disney World

For those little ones that love Frozen (and big ones), Frozen Ever After will open in May in the Epcot Norway Pavilion. A boat ride take you into the world of Troll Valley, Queen Elsa's ice palace and much more. With film, music and 3-D animatronic's, no self respecting fan would want to miss this when visiting Orlando. There is also a chance to meet Elsa and Anna too. Altogether now .. "Let it go, let it go..." 

Universal Studios

Skull Kingdom - Reign Of Kong, is due to open in Universal's Islands Of Adventure in the Summer. Visitors will board a truck which will take you into a dark menacing landscape. With a range of cutting edge 3D technology and huge animatronics on a scale like no other, I am in no doubt this immersive experience will be fantastic.

Busch Gardens

A new family thrill ride called Cobra's Curse will be opening in the Summer at Busch Gardens. This spin coaster is unique to the park. After going up in a vertical elevator riders then come face-to-face with an 80 foot snake icon and trek over the Serengeti Plain. Guests are put in the middle of an exciting archeological excavation that takes them on the ride of their life.

Seaworld

At the centrepiece of a new shark themed area, this Summer Seaworld is unveiling their new coaster, named after one the ocean's fastest sharks - Mako. At over 200 ft high, with nearly a mile of track and reaching speeds of over 73 MPH the coaster will be the tallest, longest and fastest ride in Orlando. One for the speed seeking thrill seekers out there.

Tell me readers, have you been to Florida? What attractions are you looking forward to in 2016?
