We had never been to the Holiday lights display, but it was beautiful and the kids enjoyed the few rides that were open. They had cute little shows and a fun lights display coordinated with music over the frozen pond. We all had a great time.
Love it. I've loved it since I was a kid, and I still do. Now my kids get to love it too, and that makes it even better. Happy Hauntings was fantastic and Holiday Lights was nothing short of impressive. We got season passes for the upcoming season for the first time and I'm looking forward to taking my boys as often as possible.
Excellent time here. They had what I would say is one of the best holiday themed nights I've ever been too. It's great place at a great price. The only downside is a lot of the rides had extremely long lines to wait in if you didn't choose to spend the extra money to skip them.
I would have given this park 4 stars if not for two things: 1. The Phantom’s Revenge, one of the greatest roller coasters ever built, and 2. Phantom Fright Nights, by far the best Halloween event on the east coast!! I highly recommend visiting during October, but if that isn’t an option, Kennywood is a beautiful park year round with a historic feel and plenty of great rides!
Phantom Fright Night. Lots of fun, not too crowded on a Friday. Good variety of special walk through "haunted houses" on the property, along with a selection of the park's rides. Also one last chance to get the potato patch fries before the season ends.
It has nice rides. We got to the park at 2 and rode until closing which they shut rides down before closing time which I didn't like
Only rode 4 rides in 7 hour period which is disappointing. Prices of food is crazy but normal all these ride places gouge the food prices which is not right. Beautiful place though. Save money and take food and drinks in with you. Park allows outside food and drinks which is cool. Had a good time.
Great theme park. Reminds me of a good old time theme park. I enjoyed the rides and entertainment. The price is reasonable to get in. Food selection and prices are standard for theme parks. Wait time for rides were not bad. Would go back next time in town.
Historic park. Depending on your age and where you grow up will make a difference on how you rate this place. If you grow up at this park it's fun and good coasters. The wooden coasters are better put together the big theme parks that try to be modern with their wood coasters. If you grew up in Florida this park is much cheaper than those but not as big and not as much to do. Good kiddie area. Lines were not that long compared to FL theme parks. It's nostalgic for someone to go back after many years.
This park is absolutely amazing! This park has the best of the old and the best of the new. Recomended to all ages.Plan to spend one full day here to ride all everything. Also, try the Lucky corn dog stand and the world famous Potato Patch fries
I usually visit once every 10 years. Just visited the other day and nothing has changed since the last time. I like that it is an old fashioned park, however it does need some updating. Admission is WAY to pricey for what is offered! I only went because we had BOGO coupons. For $10 more I could visit Cedar Point. Don't get me wrong, I like the feel of the park, but for any thrill rider, I wouldn't waist the money.
I had an absolute epic time here. I was so happy for my visit with my school marching band and Music In The Parks 2017 at Kennywood. The rides were absolutely thrilling and incredible. Highly recommend if you visit Pittsburgh, come here! Memories of a lifetime are made here.
A staple of Pittsburgh in which people travel from different states to visit. It may not have as many roller coasters as other parks, but there's enough to keep roller coaster enthusiasts occupied. This park is always busy but lines seem to move quickly enough (excluding The Exterminator). Concession stands and game booths are surprisingly affordable and there is a separate kid's section of the park for preschool age kids. I'm not sure if it still is, but parking was free for a little while. The park also holds special events around Halloween and Christmas so you can enjoy the park more than just in the summer.
Fantastic 'traditional' amusement park. Affordable with rides for all ages and thrill-levels. You can even bring a picnic, and put your cooler in a pavilion where no one will bother it. Cedar Point has gotten too expensive and the lines are way too long. Give Kennywood a try as a pleasant alternative.
