The park is scheduled to open in 2023 in Qiddiya, a new city being built outside of Riyadh and designed to become a center for entertainment, sports and the arts. The Falcon’s Flight is set to become the world’s longest, fastest and tallest coaster. It will travel across 4km, feature a vertical cliff dive into a 160m-deep valley using magnetic motor acceleration, and achieve speeds of more than 250 km/h.
