There is honestly so much to do and see in York, Maine. Beaches, shops, and so much more are just within walking distance of each other. However, one of my favorite places to visit when I was younger was definitely York's Wild Kingdom.

Yes, there are zoos all over New England, but York's Wild Kingdom is a whole other experience. Not only are there animals, no, but there are also amusement rides and fun for the whole family.

One thing that is always exciting news is when we find out that there are going to be new attractions coming to one of our favorite places. I bet you guessed it, new attractions are coming in the summer of 2023 to York's Wild Kingdom!

How do I know this? Well, York's Wild Kingdom took to Facebook to announce the good news. Not only should we look forward to a new attraction, no, but there will be multiple new attractions coming next year.

Currently, there are many attractions and activities along with all the animals that you can visit at York's Wild Kingdom.

According to York's Wild Kingdom website, attractions include three kiddie rides (Train, Lady Bug, and Sky Flyer), the Wacky Mouse Roller Coaster, the Scrambler, Go Karts, Bumper Cars, Merry Go Round, and the Super Slide.

Other fun family activities and games are also available during your trip to York's Wild Kingdom. They also offer an 18 hole mini golf course and midway games.

Unfortunately, the new attractions have yet to be announced but I'm sure that you and your family will be able to find out which new rides you will be able to enjoy soon for the summer.
