Finally - after waiting what seemed like a decade, we finally have an opening date for the
Nickelodeon Universe theme park at the American Dream, located just across the river from Manhattan in New Jersey. Oh, and the date is October 25th!
The project has
announced that it will open in "chapters," with the first chapter being the opening of the 8.5 acre theme park, complete with 35 rides and attractions, and the ice rink. That's just over a month from right now, which is exciting since we've been waiting for the new park to open for years now.

Nickelodeon will open with five new roller coasters, many of which are quite thrilling for an indoor theme park. The largest are TMNT Shellraiser, a Gerstlauer Euro-Fighter that is a near clone of
Takabisha, featuring both a beyond vertical drop and a launched section. Intertwined with it is Shredder, a Gerstlauer spinning coaster that's quite large for its ride style. There will also be a twisted Intamin creation named Sandy's Blasting Bronco, a speculated Intamin half-pipe ride, and the Nickelodeon Slime Streak, a family coaster from Chance Rides.
This
video is from earlier in the Summer, but it shows off several of the rides operating and gives an idea of the feel of the park.

The property's second chapter opening will be November 27th when the largest indoor water park in America opens, the DreamWorks Waterpark. The massive indoor waterpark will feature a ton of rides and slides from
Proslide, including a huge water coaster that heads around the outside of the whole complex. There will be record breaking water slides, play structures and a huge wave pool as well.
Chapter three will open on December 5th when Big SNOW, an indoor ski facility opens. Finally, in March of 2020 the shopping and dining sections will open, along with more attractions such as a giant observation wheel, Legoland Discovery Center, Sea Life Aquarium, KidZania and more.
