New attraction coming to Toronto

FlyOver Canada is coming to Toronto. Modelled after its highly successful attractions in Vancouver and Iceland, its next location will open in downtown Toronto in 2022. Using its state-of-the-art technology the ride mimics the feeling of flight. During the experience, riders hang suspended, feet dangling, before a 20-metre spherical screen while the film whisks them away on an exhilarating 8-minute journey across Canada. Special effects like wind, mist and scents, combine with the ride’s motion to create an unforgettable experience.
