And the winners are...

It's time to announce the winners of the annual Theme Park Insider Awards

Happy New Year!

With the start of 2024, it's time to update our theme park visitors guides and announce the winners of the annual Theme Park Insider Awards.

Hundreds of Theme Park Insider readers submitted rankings of their favorite parks and attractions this year, which I tallied to create our new reader rankings on the visitors guides. And the top selection in each category are now the winners of our awards for the year. You can find the winner's announcements below:

Why Islands of Adventure is the world's best theme park

Why Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance is the world's best attraction

Why Jurassic World VelociCoaster is the world's best coaster

Super Nintendo World named the world's best new attraction

You can see our updated visitors guides - with more than 40 parks and attractions around the world - at themeparkinsider.com/reviews.

We also now have an updated Top 25 list of Best Theme Park Attractions and Top 30 list of Top Roller Coasters.

Thank you, again, to all the readers who participated this year!
