Visionland amusement park renames itself 'Alabama Adventure'

March 28, 2006, 10:36 PM · A new name for a regional amusement park: Visionland, located in Birmingham, Alabama, is now Alabama Adventure. (Because, as we all know by now, a name like "Your State's Name" Adventure really packs in the paying guests....)

Southland Entertainment bought the park out of bankruptcy over two years ago and plans additional new capital investment on the park's 200-acre site, according to a press release, including a new hotel with an indoor waterpark as well as an RV park and stock car racing zone. (This is Alabama, after all.)
