Overview
- Jet Star 2 debuted at Lagoon in 1976 after a run at Expo '74 in Spokane and has operated for nearly five decades.
- Lagoon will remain open through Nov. 9, weather permitting, adding two weekends to allow last-chance rides.
- The coaster will be dismantled after the park’s Nov. 9 close, according to spokesman Adam Leishman.
- Park officials say a replacement is planned and describe it as “thrilling” and a “worthy successor,” with details to come.
- Built by Schwarzkopf, also behind Lagoon’s Colossus: The Fire Dragon, the ride is praised as a “gem among enthusiasts” as the park readies a separate 2026 “Nutcracker” swing ride.
