Blue Tornado
Blue Tornado is Gardaland's suspended roller coaster and, according to the park, its best-known coaster. You sit in seats beneath the track, with your feet in the air. The blue Vekoma coaster opened in 1998.
The concept
You climb into a supersonic jet fighter and get ready for take-off. A real aircraft stands by the track as scenery. The park promises you the thrill of high speed at great height.
The Experience
After the lift hill you fly along the roughly 765-metre track at around 80 km/h. You go through five inversions: rolls, twists and fast bends follow one after another. The ride lasts about 1 minute and 40 seconds. Because your legs dangle freely, every twist feels just that little bit more intense.

Come early
According to the park, Blue Tornado opens at 10:00. Start here and you will spend less time queuing.
Belongings in the compartment
Phones, glasses and caps are not allowed. The luggage compartment in the station is not supervised, so bring as little as possible.
Shorter queues
This ride is part of Gardaland Express, the park's paid fast track. You buy it on top of your ticket, online or in the park. You use it via the Gardaland Express app.
Visitor information
You must be between 1.40 and 2.00 metres tall. Mobile phones and cameras are not allowed on the ride, nor are glasses, caps and other loose items. During the ride a photo is taken that you can buy afterwards. Photos that are not sold are deleted by the park at the end of the day.
A classic
Blue Tornado has been running since 1998 and is as much a part of Gardaland as Prezzemolo. Close to the coaster is Fast Food Blue Tornado, for a burger or a Kid's Box.
