All Canadian midway, music lineup part of new-look Regina QCX in 2025
The 2025 version of Regina's Queen City Ex (QCX) taking place July 30 to Aug. 3 will include a 100 per cent Canadian midway, new pricing, and an all Canadian music lineup. West Coast Amusements was announced as QCX's new long-term midway partner, bringing new and old favourite rides to QCX. 'We've got some new exciting rides that haven't been here before, so we are excited about that,' West Coast Amusements president and CEO Rob Hauser said at an announcement on Friday. 'Big thrill rides, speed, freakout, chaos, frenzy as well as lots of kids rides, family rides,' he added. Hauser said coming to Regina is a big opportunity for West Coast Amusements, which also provides rides for smaller markets like Moose Jaw, Estevan, Yorkton and Swift Current. Pricing has been simplified and made to be more affordable for 2025. Sherwood Co-op will have general admission for $16, including all taxes and fees. A family and friends pack (four passes) will be $54 and a 'ride all day' pass will be $55. 'So, a really fantastic deal, great pricing for families. We want everyone to come and enjoy everything that QCX is,' event director Cathleen Betker said. Betker said advance tickets will be available online and through Sherwood Co-op in the near future. Music performances will be from Blue Rodeo, The Reklaws, The Glorious Sons, Sam Roberts Band, Bif Naked and Kim Mitchell. 'We are so excited about all of the programming that we've announced today and there's more to come so be sure to watch our social media for announcements on what's going to be popping up across the property during QCX,' Betker said. Betker also said people can look forward to a demolition derby and the return of the FullSend BMX show in the Brandt Centre, as well as all the family friendly programming people expect to see.
