In 2009, Wallenda took his high-wire act to ten Cedar Fair amusement parks in what was dubbed as the "Walk Across America Tour".
The tour began with a 350 feet (110 m) walk at Worlds of Fun in Kansas City and ended at Carowinds, where Wallenda twice walked across the North Carolina-South Carolina state line on the high-wire.
As part of the tour, he walked at Kings Island in Mason, Ohio from the front gate to the Eiffel Tower on August 15.
Traveling 800 feet (240 m) at 262 feet (80 m) above the ground, it was the highest walk of his career at the time.
He completed the walk in about 25 minutes as several thousand people watched.

On July 3, Wallenda wire walked 200 feet (61 m) over the Allegheny River in Pittsburgh as the headline act of the 2009 Three Rivers Regatta.
He paused several times during the performance to kneel and wave to the crowd.
At one point, he had to stop for a few minutes to regain his balance in the strong winds and rain.
Although Wallenda's team had ordered an ungreased wire, it was covered in oil when it arrived.
To compensate, Wallenda did the walk in his socks rather than in his tightrope shoes.
At 1,084 feet (330 m), the 25-minute walk was the longest of his career to that point.

In total, Wallenda completed 15 high-wire performances at 100 or more feet in the air during 2009.
In 2010, he performed in his home town of Sarasota for the first time.
On February 4, he walked 600 feet (180 m) from the roof of One Watergate Condominium to the roof of The Ritz-Carlton Hotel.
The performance lasted 12 minutes and was aired on national television.
From February 12–28, he anchored a version of The Flying Wallenda seven-person pyramid at Circus Sarasota.
