In Coney Island, The Wonder Wheel Spins Again
By Camille Petersen
April 10, 2021
Coney Island’s eccentric orchestra is back: Roller coaster carts tick up, up, up and then plummet and swerve along winding tracks. Rides hum, buzz and creak to the beat of carnival music.
After a year of being shut down due to the pandemic, Coney Island’s two amusement parks, Luna Park and Deno’s Wonder Wheel Amusement Park, have reopened at a third of their normal capacity.
At Deno’s, kids and adults face off to see who can squirt water into the mouth of a clown fastest and get a balloon to pop like a firecracker.

Haim Haddad, who owns the Coney Island Beach Shop, says he expects the reopened amusement parks to bring in more business than last spring and summer. Camille Petersen
Haim Haddad owns the Coney Island Beach Shop, a couple blocks from Deno s.
He usually has up to seven employees. Last season I had only one employee, he says.
Haddad says the parks will bring more customers to his shop, especially if the weather is good. He still doesn t expect the kind of sales he used to see, just better numbers than in spring and summer 2020.

Emily Dobbins, 10, says this is her first time at an amusement park since the summer of 2019. Her favorite ride is the iconic Wonder Wheel. It s a 15-story Ferris wheel but some of its carts are stationary and others shake and swing. She always picks the shaking carts and loves the views from the ride.
