2026 Opening Weekend at Silver Dollar City, Branson, Missouri

Peeking through a hole in the fence you get a better look at the walkway as well as the building that encloses the American Plunge's lift.  There are also quite a few footers in the water.

 Here is a better view of how much has been cleared between Wildfire and Powder Keg.  It really looks like most of the work over the off season has been dressing up this area.

These posts over by Wildfire are new from last year.  What's interesting is the footers in the previous photo head straight for this section.  My guess is whatever is being built is going to go over the walkway here.  Chances are we'll have a roof over this at sometime this year as construction progresses.  There is a bunch of construction straight ahead past Wildfire's first drop.  When riding if you sit on the right side of the train you get a wonderful view of footers for a turn or a helix.

Moving over by Powder Keg the walkway where guests could watch that coasters launch has been closed off and removed.  While I have not heard anything from Silver Dollar City outside of hints I think it would be safe to bet that this will be the site of a new rollercoaster in 2027.

Outside of the views from the midway by Powder Keg and Wildfire if you take the Frisco Silver Dollar Line Railroad for a journey out through the woods you can see that there a bunch of intermodal containers and trailers off in the woods and a plot next to Powder Keg where there is a lot of dirt being moved. 

Silver Dollar City won't be making the announcement until August so until then we'll all have to keep guessing as to exactly what it is going to be.
