Tips & Fun Facts
There are two lines and each line is for a different ride experience. There are stationary gondolas and gondolas that swing and slide.
The gondolas are completely enclosed with steel mesh, which obscures the view slightly.
This Ferris wheel is inspired by Coney Island's Wonder Wheel.
The gondolas each feature the happy faces of Minnie Mouse, Goofy, Pluto or Donald.
As part of the parks expansion, the wheel was renamed Mickey's Fun Wheel after originally being called the Sun Wheel.
