Liability for Theme Park Accident Injuries
Theme park and amusement park accident cases fall under three types of personal injury law: General negligence, products liability and premises liability.
According to the Consumer Protection Safety Commission, the factors generally at fault in theme park accidents include consumer behavior, operator behavior, mechanical failure and design defects.
Accountability for the personal injury may lie on the theme park owner, the company who designed or manufactured the ride, the ride operator, a concession stand owner, various other employees or non-employees, or a combination of people and entities.
These are complex areas of law; a person suffering from a theme park injury should consult a personal injury attorney with experience in them park and amusement park litigation.

Why Theme Park Accidents and Festival Injuries Happen
The idea of attending a theme park is often to enjoy family time or the thrilling, adrenaline-pumping rides that are unique to each park. Smaller county and state fairs sometimes offer the same experiences. Accidents at these attractions often happen when routine safety inspections are forsaken or when the employees are not as trained as they should be.
Other reasons theme park accidents happen include:
- Poorly designed and/or maintained rides or buildings
- Mechanical failure
- Abrupt starts and stops
- Slippery surface areas
- Dimly lit areas that allow for falls or assaults
- Improperly placed equipment
- Improper repairs or assembly: loose cables, rusted belts, faulty safety harness
- Electrocution
- Ride ejection
- Negligent supervision
