Upon Marco Polo’s return to Venice, the people celebrated!  Festa Italia is a representation of this party.  Rides like Turkish Delight, Elephant run, and The Trade Wind are themed to the goods Marco brought back from his travels.  For water ride fans, there is Roman Rapids, and for you coaster enthusiast, ride to the sun on Apollo’s Chariot!  There are plenty of games of chance, an arcade, and food, including an Italian Style buffet.  Tempesto sits next to Apollo’s Chariot, triple launching guests both forward and backward to speeds of 64 mph and rolling them over at 154 ft.
