Fun Spot America Theme Parks is an American operator of amusement parks based in Orlando, Florida, USA.

Its corporate offices are located on the second floor of the Arcade at Fun Spot America Orlando.

Fun 'N Wheels Family Fun Parks was founded by John Arie Sr., who had been operating go-kart tracks for many years, the first park would open in 1979, being Fun 'N Wheels Orlando, which featured go-karts and various amusement rides, including a roller coaster, a second Fun 'N Wheels opened in Kissimmee 9 years later.

Both Fun 'N Wheels parks were sold in 1988, but John continued to manage them until 1991.

Fun Spot Action Parks

After selling Fun 'N Wheels, a non-compete agreement in the sale contract barred John from building a new park in Florida, so he decided to purchase a park in another resort city.

In 1990, John purchased Fun Spot Action Park near Family Kingdom Amusement Park in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, he would later trademark the name of that park and the company still uses it to this day.

The company expanded to two parks with the purchase of a second go-kart center in Virginia Beach, Virginia, with Fun Spot Action Park opening in 1992.

By 1996, John Arie Sr.'s non-compete agreement had expired, so he decided to expand the Fun Spot Action Park brand back to Orlando, with the purchase of a 5-acre plot of land near International Drive.

Fun Spot Action Park Orlando had its soft opening on December 27, 1997 as the 3rd Fun Spot Action Park, however, the park was unfinished, and it had mainly opened to raise funds to finish the construction. The park's Grand Opening was on June 6, 1998.

Shortly after Orlando park opened, the Myrtle Beach and Virginia Beach parks were sold.

On April 28, 2004, Fun Spot purchased the Skycoaster & G-Force Dragsters in Kissimmee, Florida, from Bill Kitchen, with the intention of building a second Fun Spot park on the land, and 3 years later, Fun Spot would start the construction of their second park, Fun Spot USA.

Fun Spot USA opened on June 2, 2007, utilizing the existing Skycoaster & G-Force Dragsters.[10]

Fun Spot Attractions

In 2009, Fun Spot rebranded to Fun Spot Attractions, making a clear divide between the parks and the company.

Fun Spot Action Park was rebranded to Fun Spot America after its 2013 expansion, and the Kissimme park was given the same name in 2014.

In 2014, Fun Spot Attractions became Fun Spot America Theme Parks.

Fun Junction USA was purchased by the company in July 2017, and rebranded to Fun Spot America Atlanta in 2018.

John Arie Jr., the COO of the company, and Son of John Arie Sr., was appointed to Co-CEO in 2017.

In 2019, John Arie Sr. retired, making John Arie Jr. the sole CEO of the company. Arie Sr. transferred ownership of the company to Jr. in 2021.
