Midway
Rides And Games
The popular Mega Drop ride returns to the CNE this year along with other fair favourites such as the Ferris Wheel, Wave Swinger, Zipper, Swing Tower, and the Crazy Mouse spinning coaster to bring thrills and chills to visitors to the EX.
When not riding rides, visitors can spin to win, play bingo, have someone guess their age and weight, or play any one of more than 125 games at the CNE. If you are lucky, you might be able to take home a Tweety Bird, Sponge Bob or the Family Guy, after a fun filled day at the fair.

"Size Wize" at the CNE
The North American Midway Entertainment (N.A.M.E.) rides at the CNE are supported by the N.A.M.E. “Size Wize” program which easily informs our guests of the height requirement needed to gain access to each attraction, before they line-up. It is a two part program consisting of measurement stations conveniently located throughout the midway and signage at each ride clearly explaining height requirements for that ride. These signs will also outline the number of ride coupons required.
