INDIANAPOLIS – Visitors to this year’s Indiana State Fair will get the chance to see the sights from high above the fairgrounds with the addition of the new Subaru Skyride.
The Subaru Skyride is an amusement ride operated by North American Midway Entertainment (NAME), the Fair’s Midway operator, and is similar to a ski chairlift. Rising approximately 35 feet above the ground over the span of 1,400 feet, the 90-chair aerial lift will travel east and west in a continuous loop between the Swine Barn and the Midway. Riders can enter and exit the ride on either end for a seven-minute journey above the fairgrounds. Cost of a one-way ride is $5 per rider.
The ride will only be operational during the 17-day Indiana State Fair each year. The chairs will carry two adults comfortably, or two adults and a small child. Riders must be 32 inches to ride with an accompanying adult or 48 inches tall to ride alone.
