Happy Hour Specials

Thursdays and Fridays from 3:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. (June 2 & 3 and June 9 & 10). Your favorite frosty brews are available every day at CityFair. During Happy Hour save some green and kick off your weekend right with special deals on fantastic food and savings on beverages south of the Morrison Bridge.

The Big Sling

This human catapult is big, fast, and thrilling as it slings riders skyward nearly 25 stories high at over 3 Gs of gravitational force. As the highest flying ride in the Pacific Northwest, the Big Sling is perfect for big thrill seekers.
