On February 15, 2020, Hersheypark placed the final track piece for its 15th roller coaster, Candymonium.
The Bolliger & Mabillard, Inc. hyper coaster will be the park's longest, tallest, and fastest roller coaster when it opens later this year. It's also the anchor for the new Hershey's Chocolatetown entrance plaza to the park.

The final track piece completes the 4,636-foot course for Candymonium, which tops out at 210 feet and will reach a top speed of 76 miles per hour. The layout features seven camelback hills and a 123-degree hammerhead curve, finishing with a banked curve that wraps around the park's new icon, the Kisses Fountain.
