Ride Review: Meow Wolf's Kaleidoscape at Elitch Gardens with Hyde & The Legend

[@stickmtn209]

It’s so fresh & out there. I love it!

[@StamfordBridge]

I love the creative originality of this ride. I think I’d love it.

[@StamfordBridge]

This is absolutely amazing. It’s seems less like a theme park ride and more like modern art. It smacks of someone like Dali or the Dadaists. I hope this could somehow not be a one-off ride and instead be the start of a trend. Get some real character back in amusement parks, not just brand names and IPs.

[@nuclearcosmos23]

you should check out the actual meow wolf exibhit called the house of infinite return

[@rmau5]

@IntheLoop definitely come visit the original Meow Wolf exhibit in Santa Fe, New Mexico for a future video to review.

[@IntheLoopPodcast]

I definitely want to check that out

[@KicknKvnMotto]

I'm looking forward to Meow Wolf and Factory Obscura who joined up with Flaming Lips Band they are building the Oklahoma establishment called "Mix Tape". They just opened up the first phase which is interesting the second phase opens up in September.

[@IntheLoopPodcast]

I have been to the first phase (video coming soon) and couldn’t agree more, that place is gonna be awesome

[@Cccoast]

So excited to ride this! Going back in the summer!

[@AmusementLabs]

Oh, it's LSD The Ride...

[@PeterBenedetto]

YES. HAVE THEM DO JOURNEY!!! I would love to see what they do to Figment.

[@coloradopizzareview2582]

Omg my home park

[@aMondayMorning]

This ride is fucking wild oh my god. I might actually get to ride this soon, as well.

[@coloradopizzareview2582]

Hopefully if and when elitches relocates they expand this ride due to the success it has had in the opening days, live 20 min from their and can’t wait to check it out

[@erinloveswendy]

12:18 Check out that crazy, uncanny Butterfly!

[@briansanchez5758]

Ok. That hit way too cool.

[@andrewcandelaria2462]

That guy at 9:04 sounds like General Sweet Mayhem from The Lego Movie 2 and Mewtwo from the Detective Pikachu movie. In fact, his voice sounds scary! 😨

[@AmusementLabs]

This also sounds like what would happen if Burning Man was a ride. Junkyard art, neon colors, lights and drugs, lots and lots of drugs.

[@mitchellries256]

Looks very cool. They should add this to any other parks that don't have a dark ride, like Kentucky Kingdom.

[@MrSRArter]

I could see Silverwood getting a Meow Wolf ride.

[@Alikazam07]

I miss ghost blasters 😓

[@TrentonBlessWrestlemania489]

For those of you who are wondering, Elitch's isn't going anywhere for a long time. At least, that's what I was told.

[@TECfan1]

It is eventually to make room for land development. But it will simply be moved like it was before.

[@TrentonBlessWrestlemania489]

@@TECfan1 That is the plan, or so I've been told.

[@starport5551]

I WANT THAT MERCH!!!!

[@roccoaster8789]

is this park closing down?

[@Cccoast]

Yup! Denver is becoming more and more snoring

[@ThoosieJP]

The park is relocating because they have no expanding room and the city doesn't really want the park at that location anymore.

[@Cccoast]

Joseph Parodi last time I checked, there’s no plan to relocate. They already relocated once before.

[@mitchellries256]

We don't know yet. They haven't announced a closing date or anything, but they did announce an expansion of the nearby road, and unless the park makes a deal with the city, it may close. If it does, hopefully they'll relocate it to another location. After all, they relocated it once, so they're perfectly capable of doing it again if they're motivated enough to do it.

[@michaelm_720]

There is new development in Denver that is threatening the park. Last I heard, there were rumors of them relocating to a plot of land near the airport within the next few years.

[@scrambled5948]

Sure, this ride is weird but at least it has something resembling a story. If you want a weird ride that has no explanation whatsoever, look up nights in White satins that was at the sadly departed hard rock park

[@StamfordBridge]

What do you make of this addition in light of the rumors of the park’s closing?

[@IntheLoopPodcast]

The park is closing in the next few years, but hasn't been announced when.

[@StamfordBridge]

In the Loop It’s odd to spend money on an elaborate new dark ride if that’s the case, isn’t it? I’m guessing that Meow Wolf sees it as a way to install a very public art exhibit that spreads their name in Denver?

[@IntheLoopPodcast]

That's what we thought too

[@ChadeoYT]

They would never completely close but instead relocate and keep the name Elitch Gardens, it's a Denver staple.

[@AmusementLabs]

@@IntheLoopPodcast Well didn't they (MW) say they were opening a new location in Denver or nearby? Also, lots of their exhibits are made from literal garbage, stuff picked from a junkyard. I don't imagine this costed very much.

[@aaronsarchive82]

Meow Wolf would be PERFECT to fix JII!!!!

[@KettouRyuujin]

Aaron Reese fix what? Just curious, tbh...

[@JustinCoasters]

This looks like a Chinese Knockoff Disney ride

[@JustinCoasters]

Cooler guy looks inspired by SpongeBob
