7 New Schueberfouer Rides to Try in 2023

As every year, the 2023 Schueberfouer has started and it awaits visitors with multiple new rides (and also new food and drinks establishments) in addition to some old crowd favourites; Chronicle.lu has documented the seven new rides below.

Wilde Maus XXL, the exciting travelling classic known from past years at the Schueberfouer was prolonged and improved, offering visitors a wild ride (including looping) complete with a virtual reality journey. The talking fox Dusty and the flying duck Dizzy escape from a farm together and take the audience along on jagged curves and small, fast corners at a top speed of 60 km/h.

Gladiator is a 60-metre-tall looping thrill ride, similar to Airmaxx, to which the Schueberfouer attraction visitors had been accustomed. This is a ride that turns 360°, with three different simultaneous rotations. The speed of the gondola can reach up to 80 km/h.

Airwolf Sky Control (see photo) is a space-themed thrill ride with special light, fog and flight-motion effects which can be manually recombined, making each new ride unique and reminiscent of a space craft.

Big Monster is a beautifully designed ride, with numerous colourful underwater creatures swaying and spinning, illuminated by thousands of LEDs. A number of realistic octopuses adorn this fast-turning carousel.

Petersburger Schlittenfahrt (Petersburg sled ride) is an over 40-year-old carousel, designed to look like a winter wonderland. This is a family-friendly ride turning in circles, with detailed decoration such as ice-blue lighting and thick icicle borders all around, ensuring a pleasant, fairy tale-like atmosphere.

Last, but not least, children can look forward to the colourful soaring Ballonfahrt (balloon ride), spinning slowly upwards in a spiral, in small open cabins shaped like hot-air balloons. Another ride for children is Flying Star, a small carousel with different characters (including a strikingly pink power ranger flying high above the others).
