Canada’s first-ever elevated go-kart race track to open in Niagara this weekend

On your mark, get set, GO! Canada’s first-ever elevated go-kart track, Niagara Speedway, is set to open this weekend.

Clifton Hill has released its March Break programming schedule, including all of the attractions that will be operating throughout the week.

Towering over forty-two feet high, the Niagara Speedway is a world-class attraction that combines the adrenaline-inducing thrill of kart racing with the remarkable experience of a roller coaster ride.

According to their announcement, the Niagara Speedway plans to open on Saturday, March 11th.

If weather permits, the go-kart track will remain open until March 19th to accommodate families and visitors during March Break.

“The course is spread out over four acres with over 2000 linear feet of concrete racing surface, running through a four-story helical spiral followed by a two tiered coaster style ramp that runs into another spiral,” says Clifton Hill.

“Though riders may feel like they are flying over a cliff at certain points during the ride, extensive safety features were built into the Speedway attraction.”

The Speedway hours vary slightly throughout the week, opening at either 12 PM or 1 PM and closing between 9 PM and 1 AM. You can see the schedule here.

If Mother Nature doesn’t get in the way, then it looks like we’ll enjoy early access to one of Ontario’s most popular summer attractions this month.

Let’s race!
