Wild Rivers is a water park in Irvine, California, United States. It opened in July 1986 on the site of the former Lion Country Safari. Following the expiration of its lease with The Irvine Company, it closed on September 25, 2011. In August of 2012, the Orange County Board of Supervisors approved plans to rebuild Wild Rivers in Irvine near the Orange County Great Park. The developers secured full funding and commenced construction on July 1, 2021, confirming the park's reopening for Summer 2022. The new Wild Rivers location held its soft opening on July 10, 2022, up until its official grand opening as of July 29, 2022 and is 50% bigger than the old park.
