Defy Gravity, Pretend to be a Surfer, or Cool Off with New Carnival Rides!
Exciting New Acts Are Fun For the Whole Family
AUGUSTA, NJ—Love carnival rides? Get ready for this year’s Fair, jam packed with the newest and most exciting rides we could find! From an icy Fun House to a new kid’s ride, this year’s events are fun for the whole family!
Last year, the Air Race debuted at the carnival, giving adult and teen riders a dipping, diving, barrel rolling adventure! While our riders loved the event, we want to make sure that The Fair is fun for all ages. This year’s Fair debuts the Sky Race, a slightly toned-down version of the original ride that is perfect for kids.
If actually zooming through the air isn’t for you, consider Zero Gravity. This new ride has riders standing against the wall and spinning in the air! Fly inside a dazzling barrel of lights and experience weightlessness!

This ride, also debuting at the New Jersey State Fair this year, takes you over waves and recreates a beach atmosphere in a thrilling ride. For the ride lover or surfer dude, this ride is sure to give you a summer thrill!
So much adventure in the hot summer sun can really warm you up—cool off at the Ice Palace Fun House! Sure to entertain visitors of all ages, the fun house will feature a frozen winter theme, making the perfect photo opportunity or place to cool off.
