Austin's New COTALAND Theme Park to Debut with Record-Breaking Rides Next Month

COTALAND is set to open its gates on Saturday, September 26 at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin, offering tickets from $65. Spanning 30 acres, the park boasts over 30 first-of-their-kind rides, highlighted by Gerstlauer's Palindrome, the nation's only steel coaster that traverses an active roadway, and Vekoma's Circuit Breaker, Texas' inaugural tilt coaster. Visitors can also purchase a “Hot Lap” to ride a supercar around the Formula One track, view the circuit from the Downforce drop tower, or enjoy the 150-foot Cloud Flyer swing ride.

Family-focused attractions include a tentacle-themed Medusa ride, a log-flume series, and a Victorian-style butterfly conservatory. Park officials emphasize that the blend of high-tech thrills, live entertainment, and extensive landscaping creates a destination unlike any other in the United States.
