Fun Spot America: Twice the Locations, Twice the Fun
Before we get started, let’s talk about which Fun Spot location is right for you. Fun Spot’s Orlando and Kissimmee locations share a name and similar experiences, including coasters, kiddie rides, multi-level go-karts and an arcade. They also offer free parking and general admission, with paid ride access available on an a la carte, sampler ticket or full day pass basis. Some of the key differences between the two parks include:
Location
Fun Spot Orlando is located on International Drive, minutes from Universal Orlando Resort, while Fun Spot Kissimmee is adjacent to the Old Town Entertainment District, closer to Walt Disney World® Resort.
Unique Features
Fun Spot Orlando offers unique rides like White Lightning, the only fully wooden coaster in Orlando, plus four dramatic go-kart tracks. It’s also home to a 250-foot tall SkyCoaster, a splash pad, cabanas and a Gator Spot by Gatorland with over 100 creatures. Animal feedings, shows and weekend gator meet and greets are also available.

Fun Spot Kissimmee, meanwhile, boasts the tallest SkyCoaster in the world. It’s also home to the only fully wooden coaster in Florida to go upside down, a new pendulum ride that swings 360 degrees, and two go-kart tracks — including one that rises four stories before a high-speed descent. It’s within easy walking distance of shopping, dining and additional attractions next door at Old Town.
Let’s explore all that the two parks have to offer, followed by tips and FAQs to help you plan the best Fun Spot visit possible.
Thrill Rides, Coasters and Gravity-Defying Fun
Orlando’s thrill rides are legendary, and you can find many of them right here at Fun Spot. Reach speeds up to 48 mph on White Lightning, tumble head over heels on the wooden Mine Blower coaster and watch the world spin as you fly on Headrush 360. The newest addition, Kissimmee’s Up and Overboard, is an inverted pendulum ride with twin gondolas that rotate 360 degrees.

True thrill seekers can also soar on the SkyCoaster, a dramatic ride that lifts you high into the air with your body parallel to the ground. When you reach the top, it’s up to you to tug the rip cord and go flying, mimicking the feeling of skydiving or bungee jumping with incredible views of the surrounding attractions.
Additional thrills include the 90-foot-tall Liberty Swing in Orlando, the mouse-style Galaxy Spin coaster in Kissimmee, and so much more to explore with family and friends. As a big sister who bribed my younger siblings to get on rides like this in my youth, trust me when I say, these rides create the moments vacation memories are made of.
Kiddie Rides, Fun Houses and All-Ages Fun
If you prefer something a little milder, Fun Spot also offers plenty of kiddie rides, action-packed arcades, fun houses and other family-friendly attractions. Both the Orlando and Kissimmee locations have a carousel, bumper cars, Tilt-a-Whirl and a Ferris Wheel, not to mention classic midway games, a funhouse, slides, a Frog Hopper and pint-sized thrills for budding coaster enthusiasts.

Orlando also offers Bumper Boats, the Scramblur, tea cups, kiddie swings, a Super Trucks ride and a splash pad at Fun Spot Orlando. Kissimmee boasts Yo-Yo swings, a flying Paratrooper, Kiddie Bumper Cars, soaring Baron Planes, a Scooby “Boo” obstacle course, a spinning car-themed Convoy and suspense-filled Screamer for a day of non-stop fun.
Go-Karting for the Whole Crew
You’ll hear them before you see them: Gas-powered go-karts tearing through multi-level tracks, their riders shrieking with delight as they race against family and friends. Fun Spot features four legendary tracks in Orlando, including sprint-style, corkscrew, high-elevation and figure-eight courses. You’ll find two additional options in Kissimmee, including a four-story Vortex course and a multi-level experience that’s open to younger riders. Some courses feature double go-karts, perfect for bringing kids 36 inches or taller along for the ride. Unlimited karting is included with the full day pass.
Native Florida Wildlife at the Gator Spot
Available exclusively at Fun Spot’s Orlando location, the Gator Spot features over 100 animals in partnership with Gatorland, the “Alligator Capital of the World.” Spot incredible Florida wildlife like alligators, birds, axolotls, reptiles and a giant tortoise, with daily gator shows, paid feeding opportunities, and even the chance to come face-to-face with a rare albino alligator. Admission is included with your Fun Pass, or you can visit the Gator Spot by itself for just $6. If you like the Gator Spot, be sure to stop by Gatorland for even more wild Florida fun on your next visit.
