When is the Ferris Wheel date in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth?

The Ferris Wheel or Skywheel date happens during Chapter 12 on your second visit to the Gold Saucer. You have until the moment that you go to sleep in the Haunted Hotel to prepare, so make sure that you’ve done everything you think you need to do prior to this as your date will be locked in the moment you decide to rest.

How to get all romance options for the Ferris Wheel date
Your date for the Ferris Wheel event is determined by the party member that you have the strongest bond with, which is enhanced through various story events and side quests.

You can see this bond after specific moments or by pressing L1 at any point, and a smiley face should appear above each character’s head. Choosing the ‘right’ dialogue option is often the best way to enhance this bond, but you can also further it by completing the character’s linked side quests, or by following specific story beats, which I’ll detail below.
Here are all of the pivotal story beats that you can engage with to enhance your bond with each party member:
Aerith
- Inauguration Parade (Chapter 4)
- Same Taste in Beachwear (Chapter 6)
- Costa del Sol Beach Fight Partner (Chapter 6)
Tifa
- Inauguration Parade (Chapter 4)
- Same Taste in Beachwear (Chapter 6)
- Costa del Sol Beach Fight Partner (Chapter 6)
Barret
- Costa del Sol Beach Fight Partner (Chapter 6)
- Corel Minecart Route & Score (Chapter 7)
- Corel Prison Buggy Escape (Chapter 8)
Red XIII
- Shinra-8 Queen’s Blood Tournament (Chapter 5)
- Costa del Sol Beach Fight Partner (Chapter 6)
- Gold Saucer Welcome Brawl with Dio (Chapter 8)
- Gold Saucer Queen’s Blood Rematch (Chapter 8)
Yuffie
- Corel Minecart Route & Score (Chapter 7)
- 3D Brawler Match (Chapter 8)
The three other defining factors are ‘Conversations’, ‘Odd Jobs’, and ‘Synergy Skills & Abilities’ – so make sure to try to pick the right options, complete all of your desired parter’s side quests, and unlock all of the right Synergy Abilities in your desired character’s Folio.

There is also an option to take ‘Others’ to the date, in which Cait Sith, Vincent, and Cid will accompany you around the Gold Saucer and jump on the Skywheel with you. As far as I can tell this is only accessible once you have completed the game and gained access to the ‘Extra Settings’ menu where you can manually set your companion, but if this isn’t the case I’ll make sure to update you with further details.
Yuffie is definitely the hardest character to get the Ferris Wheel date for in my eyes, as she obviously joins the game around halfway through and thus has fewer opportunities to gain a bond. She does have a fair amount of linked side quests though, so you’d better try and get through those if you want the Wutai Materia Hunter to join you.

I managed to get Aerith in my playthrough which I was delighted with as she’s my favourite character – so having her for both Chapter 8 and Chapter 12 in the Gold Saucer was an ideal experience. From what I can tell your companion in Chapter 8 doesn’t have a bearing on the Chapter 12 outcome – so don’t stress if you don’t get the person you want as there’s still plenty of time to work it out.
Each date has its own unique cutscene though, so make sure to see them all as you never know what might happen in each one!
