Niagara Takes Flight: A Soaring Adventure!

Prepare for the adventure of a lifetime! This brand new, fully-immersive flying theatre ride takes you to the skies for a breathtaking journey along the Niagara River corridor.

You’ll soar across 56 kilometres of parkland, from the shores of Lake Ontario to the edge of Lake Erie, as breathtaking landscapes unfold beneath you. Gliding over swirling rapids and steep rock faces, past lush forests and through dramatic battles that changed the course of history all before getting closer than ever to the thundering Horseshoe Falls.

Be one of the first to experience it!

Release Your Own Monarch Butterfly! 

Did you know that monarch butterflies migrate? At the end of the summer, a special generation of monarch butterflies are born that will travel from North America to California and Mexico for the winter. As part of your Majestic Monarch experience you can tag, release and monitor your own butterfly.

Monarchs are iconic orange, black and white butterflies classified as a “species of special concern” under Ontario’s Endangered Species Act. The tags allow researchers to effectively track monarch migration patterns and document changes and trends in their behaviour. How cool!

September 20 & 21, 2025, 11:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m.

Butterflies will be released hourly

(while supplies last)

Release your butterfly.
