Editing Kings Dominion (section)

===Candy Apple Grove===
Candy Apple Grove was known as Coney Island when the park first opened in 1975. It was renamed Candy Apple Grove in 1976. The area is Kings Dominion's largest section in the park, and in its early years, it featured an [[orchard]] theme that included three apple-themed rides: Apple Turnover,<ref>{{cite web|title=Apple Turnover|url=https://www.KingsDominion.com/celebration/popular-attractions/Apple-Turnover|work=Kings Dominion|access-date=November 27, 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131203012220/https://www.kingsdominion.com/celebration/popular-attractions/Apple-Turnover|archive-date=December 3, 2013|url-status=dead|df=mdy-all}}</ref> Bad Apple, and Adam's Apple. Much of the apple-related themes were removed over the years, and the area became known as simply ''The Grove'' when it merged with the former Wayne's World area in 2001.{{Citation needed|date=April 2018}}
 
As part of Kings Dominion's 40th-anniversary celebration in 2014, The Grove was restored to its original orchard theme, and the name was changed back to Candy Apple Grove. The [[animatronic]] Singing Mushrooms, popular decades ago, was redeveloped with newer technology and placed back on display.<ref name="40-year PR">{{cite web|title=Mushrooms Press Release|url=https://www.KingsDominion.com/celebration/the-latest/press-release|work=Kings Dominion|date=November 14, 2013|access-date=November 27, 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140331182443/https://www.kingsdominion.com/celebration/the-latest/press-release|archive-date=March 31, 2014}}</ref> Other features that made a return to the area include a fully restored floral clock near the Carousel, oversized candy apples, and the popular blue ice cream that existed in the park for decades.<ref name="New for 40-year">{{cite web|title=New for the 40|url=https://www.kingsdominion.com/celebration/the-latest/new-for-the-40|website=Kings Dominion|access-date=3 July 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140714201244/https://www.kingsdominion.com/celebration/the-latest/new-for-the-40|archive-date=July 14, 2014}}</ref>

The westernmost corner of Candy Apple Grove, distinct from the rest of the area, is themed to the 1950s.

Some of the area's more notable rides include [[WindSeeker]], a {{Convert|301|ft|m|adj=mid|-tall}} swing ride that opened in 2012, and Delirium, a type of [[pendulum]] amusement ride that opened in place of stand-up roller coaster [[Shockwave (Kings Dominion)|Shockwave]] in 2016. Candy Apple Grove's newest ride, steel coaster [[Twisted Timbers]], opened in 2018 replacing Hurler and reusing some of the previous support structure. In addition to rides, the area features an arcade, carnival games, counter-service restaurants, and a gift shop.
