New for Soak City in 2025!
In 2025, Kings Island’s Soak City Water Park will debut first-of-its-kind thrills and chills with the addition of RiverRacers, the first and only dual-racing water coaster in Ohio, and seven new kids’ water slides in the riverside-themed kids’ play area, Splash River Junction. Hundreds of new loungers and chairs also will surround the new area with seating options in both the sun and shade.
RiverRacers
RiverRacers launches side-by-side racers down the first drop at speeds up to 30 mph. Water jets drench and propel riders upward through an enclosed tunnel with special lighting effects. The race is on with more twists and turns into an open-air, high-banking slingshot, whipping them 180 degrees into a gravity-defying final mega drop before crossing the finish line!
Splash River Junction
Kings Island’s Soak City is expanding in 2025 with the addition of Splash River Junction. Cool off in Bluegill Lagoon, an ol’ fashioned swimmin’ hole complete with a water tower. Salamander Sliders, a set of seven new water slides with gentle slopes and turns perfect for young sliders.
