Zitat Wade Shows was founded in 1912 by Lee Wade. The show played small events in and around Detroit, Michigan. For over 100 years, Wade Shows has been the leader in bringing affordable family entertainment to the people of Michigan and as the company has grown carnival fans throughout the country. As the company expands, we continue this tradition with our customers throughout the country.

For the past 30 years, Wade Shows has been under the ownership and direction of Frank Zaitshik. Frank has taken the company from a small, Michigan based show to a truly national organization with offices in both Michigan and Florida. Frank's style of personal management, team building and continuous improvement is the guiding force to the phenomenal success of the show.

Wade Shows now owns over 100 amusement rides and attractions and services over 15 million people each year. Wade Shows plays more State Fairs than any other carnival in history, working with great events such as the Oklahoma State Fair, the North Carolina State Fair, the Missouri State Fair, The South Florida Fair, the San Antonio Livestock Show and Exhibition, the Alabama State Fair, the Delaware State Fair, the Florida State Fair, and the Alabama National Fair. Wade Shows also works with many large county and regional fairs as well as city and civic sponsored events. One of America''s premier carnival companies, Wade Shows is consistently ranked as one of the top five amusement companies by our industry's leading trade publication: CarnivalWarehouse.com.


Wade Shows is at the forefront of the industry on many fronts. Our customer service amenities, including shaded seating area, color-coordinated canvas, height signs and our all-new Gold Access Program, offer more opportunities for guests than any other carnival.

Wade Shows is also the greenest carnival on the road today. We have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on initiatives such as replacing the lighting on our rides with LED lighting, purchasing the most fuel-efficient generators available, using bio-diesel when available for our power plants and initiating midway recycling programs with our fair partners.

Wade Shows continues to improve each year. Our goals are to provide the most thrilling rides, top safety and employee training, the best customer service amenities and the greenest possible company to our fairs and events. Keeping these goals in mind, we will continue our progress, one smile at a time, into the 21st Century.

Zitat At the 2022 IAAPA Attractions Expo, Wade Shows made a deal to purchase three Bertazzon pieces, a Super Himalaya, a Swing Tower, and a double decker carousel which will be added to the show's route. Zaitshik is also in talks to include a new, spectacular attraction to his ride arsenal. The show recently took delivery of a new Wave Swinger, also from Bertazzon.

Zitat By: Mary Weber
Monday, July 11, 2022

Wade Shows announced the addition of a KMG XXL Ride to its extensive lineup of unique super spectacular attractions. Marina Zaitshik-Small, daughter of Frank Zaitshik, and her husband, Johan Small, have purchased the XXL after extensive research and consideration. While the ride will often travel with Wade Shows to some of the company's major events, it is likely that the XXL will have a route of its own, playing fairs and festivals that are looking for a show-stopping attraction.

“We did our own research and settled on the XXL ride because it's a popular style already. This will be the first traveling model of the XXL in the US and tallest swinging pendulum ride on any US midway. This ride is a fan-favorite in Europe and Australia,” says Zaitshik-Small.

Once they set their sights on the XXL, Zaitshik-Small and her husband reached out to Peter Theunisz, sales agent with KMG, and inquired about availability. The ride is set to make its debut at the 2024 South Florida Fair in West Palm Beach, FL. “Were very excited to premiere this one of a kind super spectacular attraction in our home state of Florida. Its very first location will be at the 2024 South Florida Fair and followed by my hometown fair, the Florida State Fair.

Lifetime Bunkhouses - Bunkhouses that last a LIFETIME!
While Wade Shows' events take precedence, we plan on a blended route comprised of Wade events and the best Independent Fairs available.,” says Zaitshik-Small.

“It was an interesting process to sell a brand new ‘XXL' ride to Wade Shows. Frank, Marina, and Johan have done a thorough investigation on the ride about capacity, efficiency, transportation, set up, procedure, and maintenance,” says Theunisz. “They went up to Myrtle Beach, SC to go see Bill Prescott's ‘XXL' to get all the information they needed to make the decision to purchase,” says Theunisz.

The XXL moves on three integrated semi-trailers, and can be set up without the use of a crane. The ride swings riders 148 feet up in the air, twice as high as rides of a similar style traveling in the U. S. right now. Complimenting its massive size, the XXL will turn heads on the midway with its unique lighting and design package. “We will have features that have never been displayed on a US ride—a truly special audio visual and lighting aspect will be included in the ride layout,” says Zaitshik-Small.

When she visited Bill Prescott in Myrtle Beach and got to see the ride in person, Zaitshik-Small was stunned by the size of the ride. “Although it was the park model it's the exact footprint of our traveling model. It's way larger than anything you've seen on the midway and will compete with the best of the best super spectacular attractions. If you try to take a picture of the ride straight on, the whole ride won't fit in the frame,” laughs Zaitshik-Small.

While purchasing this ride, and operating it, is a huge undertaking, Zaitshik-Small and her husband, Johan, are up for the challenge. Learning from one of the most accomplished carnival operators in the industry, Zaitshik-Small has many years of management experience on the midway and has owned and refurbished rides alongside her father for quite some time. “It's great to be starting a new business venture with my Dad's support. I have unofficially and officially been his assistant since around 10 years old, but now the roles are reversed. I couldn't ask for a better consultant,” says Zaitshik-Small.

Johan Small has about ten years of experience in the industry starting out working under Michael Wood and moving the Magnum ride. Once he moved over to Wade Shows he gained experience moving major roller coasters, helping with the Midway Sky Eye, and managing a unit of 25-30 rides. Once the XXL arrives, Small will take responsibility for set up, tear down, maintenance, and operation of the ride alongside his crew. “The XXL will have Johan's attention and expertise.
It will be perfectly maintained and he will ensure a great operation,” says Zaitshik-Small.

“THIS WILL BE THE FIRST TRAVELING MODEL OF THE XXL IN THE US AND TALLEST SWINGING PENDULUM RIDE ON ANY US MIDWAY. ”

As the excitement for the ride's delivery builds in the industry, Zaitshik-Small is happy to have some time to plan, study, and visit the factory as the ride is constructed. “We're looking forward to its debut in 2024 but we are glad to have some time to market the ride and have some input in the design,” she says. “I'm grateful for the support of my parents as we take this on and we plan to update our social media as we visit the factory,” says Zaitshik-Small. “I'm certainly inspired by my dad who is never afraid to take a risk and purchase super spectacular multi-trailer rides. This purchase shows mine and Johan's commitment to the outdoor amusement business.”

Der XXL wird wohl von einem "Tochter"unternehmen namens Iconic Midway Rides bestellt und betrieben. Besitzer dieses Unternehmens scheinen Marina Zaitshik Small und (ihr Ehemann?) Johan Small zu sein.

Zitat As part of the Wade family's continued expansion and diversification, Marina Zaitshik Small and Johan Small also announced some purchases with their company: Iconic Midway Rides. The company made waves in the industry earlier in the year when they announced the purchase of an XXL ride from KMG to be delivered in 2023/2024. The massive super spectacular will play some of the US's largest events.

The pair announced the purchase of two more pieces of equipment, a Ring of Fire ride and a family ride, the Beach Shack. Iconic Midway rides will use the pieces both on the Wade Shows route and at select independent midways.
