Niagara Falls theme park part of multibillion-dollar government project
A Niagara Falls theme park is being explored by the Ontario government as part of a multibillion-dollar tourism strategy.
The Ontario government announced the potential theme park on Dec. 15, 2025, as part of the Destination Niagara Strategy.
A press release distributed by the government of Ontario states that “the government is launching a Request for Information to explore options for a brand-new signature theme park attraction, offering exciting new venues where families can create long-lasting memories.”
No specific theme for the proposed park has been announced at this time, nor have any specific attractions, rides, or potential intellectual property (IP).
“Tourism attractions” is one of five pillars of the Destination Niagara initiative; the others are world-class gaming, wine and culinary tourism, arts and culture, and transportation development. Here’s the full description for the tourism attractions pillar:
Tourism Attractions: Develop exciting new attractions and visitor experiences to appeal to new tourists and encourage longer stays. The revitalization of the Toronto Power Generating Station into a boutique hotel is underway and potential projects include a new theme park, redevelopment of the Ontario Power Generating Station, a new observation wheel, and the revitalization of the Niagara Parks marina.
“We are protecting Niagara’s globally recognized tourism sector and unlocking the region’s enormous potential as an economic engine of the province,” said Stan Cho, minister of tourism, culture, and gaming for Ontario. “Through this strategy, our government is investing in Niagara’s broader prosperity, which will strengthen the communities, workers and industries that keep our province moving.”
Earlier this year, Niagara Virtual opened as a VR attraction.
