Apr 10, 2021 The Jurassic World VelociCoaster opens June 10 at Universal Orlando. When Universal Orlando Resort guests board the Jurassic World VelociCoaster on June 10, they'll enjoy a menu of superlatives. Universal is billing the coaster as Florida's fastest and tallest launch coaster, with Universal's steepest drop, dialing in at 80 degrees. But guests will also plunge into something else: A storyline that fits right into the Jurassic Park franchise. In what is becoming the new standard for roller coasters at Universal and Disney, VelociCoaster seeks to immerse guests into Jurassic World. This coaster doesn't just go fast; it tells a story. "There's such an inexhaustible supply of creativity in this industry," said Robert Niles, editor of Theme Park Insider. "I think it was inevitable that, at some point, this would be applied to the good old roller coaster, and something unique would come about. We're seeing that right now, and frankly I'm just excited to see where it goes."
