American Adventure World was the former name of a theme park in Derbyshire, England, quite close to both Nottingham and Derby on the edge of Ilkeston. It was later just called American Adventure. The park for many years had a number of large white-knuckle attractions, but in 2005 was re-themed as a ‘family’ park aimed at the under-14 market. In January 2007, the owners announced that it would not reopen for the new season, and the rides would be sold off.
