Hersheypark has announced a brand new attraction for 2025, with the Twizzlers-themed Screamin’ Swing ride set to be the tallest in the world when it opens next year.
Called Twizzlers Twisted Gravity, the pendulum will take riders 137ft (41.8m) in the air at speeds of up to 68mph (109.4kmph) as they swing high above Spring Creek in The Hollow region of Hersheypark.
Supplier S&S Worldwide is behind the attraction, which will be branded after different Twizzlers flavours including Strawberry, Cherry, Hershey’s Chocolate and Black Licorice.
The new ride will join the B&M-designed Candymonium hypercoaster, which has three different Hershey-branded trains, one of which is also Twizzlers. As a result, guests will now be able to ride two Twizzlers attractions, as well as get a photo with a Twizzlers character.
“We continue to invest in attraction experiences that leverage unique Hershey brands, so we are thrilled to add a Twizzlers-branded Screamin’ Swing to our unmatched ride portfolio next summer,” said Vikki Hultquist, vice president of Hersheypark and Entertainment Operations.
“Twizzlers Twisted Gravity will provide our guests with the best of both worlds - the ultimate thrills and never-before-seen views of our Park’s beautiful 121 acres as they soar to a record-breaking height and leave gravity behind.”
