HELP

Eat My Dust is a Zamperla kiddie roller coaster currently located at Walibi Holland in Biddinghuizen, Flevoland, Netherlands.

History

The ride replaced the Kart Fight Exhibition Track that closed on 5 May 2018 after an incident where a 13-year-old was injured.[1] The track would remain standing but not operating due to an investigation into the incident. The track would eventually get demolished in 2022, with construction on the coaster starting just before the premiere of the park's winter event Bright Nights.

It opened on 7 April 2023.[2]
