Coney Island’s Cyclone coaster has its opening postponed by coronavirus pandemic
The Wonder Wheel’s not opening either.
The April 4 opening of Coney Island’s famous Cyclone roller coaster has been postponed because of the novel coronavirus pandemic.
Central Amusement International announced Thursday night that the opening of its entire Luna Park complex, where the landmarked roller coaster is located, will be pushed back to an as-yet undetermined date.
Its amusement park rides were scheduled to open on April 4. And the christening of the Cyclone with a bottle of egg cream — a tradition presided over by the Brooklyn Borough President — was set for Palm Sunday, which falls on April 5 this year.
