The Foundation Club

This is an opportunity for the community and visitors to make their mark on Atlantic City’s newest and greatest attraction. It’s a chance to become one of the first members of this elite club with a commemorative plaque with your name, family name, company, or logo on it, and special perks while riding The Wheel.

When you purchase your membership, a titanium plaque with your name on it will be placed on the Foundation Wall of The Wheel, plus you will receive a free ride and a free photo. As a member of the club you will receive a 10% discount every time you ride The Wheel, for the first year of purchase.

Foundation Club memberships will be available for purchase in the near future. For more information, click here.                                                   (photo credit – Mortimer Spreng)

Wheel Fun Facts:

The Wheel is 227 feet tall.

The Wheel features 40 temperature-controlled gondolas.

Each gondola can comfortably hold 6 passengers, with a total capacity of 240 passengers.

The Wheel has a 14,500 light package that will light up at night. 

The Wheel opened Winter 2017 and has been in the works since 2013 as a grand new attraction for Atlantic City and the Steel Pier. It will bring a new light to all that Atlantic City has to offer and goes hand-in-hand with all the positive happenings in Atlantic City today. Click here to view The Wheel’s website. 

Before The Wheel could begin to be installed, work had to go into preparing the area around the pier for the 485,000-pound giant wheel. That included: building a temporary gravel road beside the Boardwalk to lead to the Pier and bolstering the Boardwalk at the Pennsylvania Avenue street-end with thousands of wooden beams to make it strong enough to handle the weight. In late Spring to early Summer of 2017, the foundation for the structure was completed, installation of the legs and connecting parts, gondolas and more.
