Chessington World of Adventures to welcome world’s first Jumanji rollercoaster

Chessington World of Adventures’ upcoming World of Jumanji land will house the world’s first Jumanji rollercoaster – Mandrill Mayhem.

Mandrill Mayhem is a winged, launch, shuttle ride with an inversion – a first for Chessington, which last introduced a rollercoaster back in 2004.

World of Jumanji’s other attractions will include Mamba Strike, Ostrich Stampede and a maze of pathways based on the iconic Jumanji board game.

Themed food, drink and merchandise will also be on offer, as well as six Jumanji-themed bedrooms at the Chessington Safari Hotel.

“Families should prepare to be turned upside down – literally – as the first new rollercoaster in nearly 20 years at the Resort has a twist, turn and flip that will have you holding on to your seat,” said Scott O’Neil, CEO at Merlin Entertainments.

“This is the next level for families wanting to explore the ultimate adventure together.”

World of Jumanji opens at Chessington World of Adventures Resort this spring.
