Know before you go

There is a new clear bag policy in effect.

This covers purses, backpacks, tote bags, etc. You can also carry a zip-loc style food storage bag with your personal items.

And you’ll probably need to get used to this policy, because we’re seeing more and more of it.

After 5 p.m, no one under 16 will be admitted without a parent present.

There are just over 50 rides this year, and roughly half are kiddie rides. Some rides have height requirements.
