About Canadas Wonderland
About Canadas Wonderland
Canada's Wonderland is Canada's biggest theme park, sitting in Vaughan, Ontario, about 30 km north of Toronto. The coaster line-up is one of the best in North America: Leviathan (a giga coaster), Behemoth, Yukon Striker (a dive coaster), Fury (a spinning coaster), Wild Beast, and Vortex. A full Splash Works water park operates on the same site during summer.
Ontario school holidays, summer weekends and the Halloween Haunt drive Canada's Wonderland's busiest periods. Weekdays in May, September and October stay much calmer, with queue times often dropping to single digits on non-headline rides. Check live wait times for Leviathan and Yukon Striker on arrival, and use our crowd calendar to pick a midweek visit for a more relaxed coaster day.

Are Canadas Wonderland queue times live and accurate?
Yes - queue times on this page come directly from Canadas Wonderland's own ride system, the same data shown on the park's official app and in-park signs. Wait times refresh every few minutes. Parks occasionally over-estimate queues by 5-15% to manage expectations, so actual walk times are sometimes shorter than posted.
