Riders of Hershey’s height category (48”) and above will blast through the flavor tunnel, invert six times in 90 seconds and jam to sweet tunes. Each ride is different with five randomized flavor rides like Watermelon or Green Apple, complete with different music, lights and scents for an only-in-Hershey sensory experience. 
  • Families can enjoy spinning 360 degrees on Mix’d Flavored By Jolly Rancher all-new family ride located next to Jolly Rancher Remix. Riders of Reese’s height category (42”) and above will sit in one of the four arms and spin 360 degrees. The ride then shifts into gear and mixes in lifts, drops and never-before-seen views while dodging the other riders.
