I think I'll just stick with my Gold/Platinum passes for now. Sounds like another half baked promotion that really wasn't worked out before selling.

Where is this in relation to SlingShot?

It does seem odd that they are deviating a bit from their previous costing model. Could be a couple of different reasons:
- KI is a more valuable asset than the other parks so they are reflecting that in the pricing.
- Adjusting to cost of living/cost of doing business variations across the communities they have parks in.
- They sold too many gold passes to KI and are trying the Disney approach (that failed lol) at raising costs to better control attendance.
- Some other reason or no reason at all.
Or trying to reduce the babysitting they do during the year and help curb the incidents at the park.

Still scratching my head on why they would invest more money into CGA yet not add any flats to Kings Island which really needs them.

We were talking about this on the Cedar Fair 2023 Additions topic on the Other Amusement Parks and Industry News forum but I feel like we need to talk about this here since I actually have a photo now.
I was waiting to see how long KIC took to notice. Lol

And we didn’t ever ride enchanted theater while it was open. But I think a lot of visitors to the park might be in a similar place.
Well, nobody has ever rode enchanted theater. They might have watched a show there, but that was after Enchanted Voyage closed.

Thousands came to Kings Island on July 9th at the Timberwolf Amphitheatre to see classic 80s bands Berlin and A Flock of Seagulls. This summer’s concert series marks the most concerts at Kings Island since 1995, and the first time that park admission is not required to attend a concert. Plus, parking is free after 5:00 p.m.
Next up at the park is 3 Doors Down with Special Guest Candlebox on Friday, July 22. More information and tickets are available on the park’s website at visitkingsisland.com.
From what I heard and seen, hundreds, not thousands.

I agree. They need to put something in where Vortex sat. Seeing that fence and an open area of land just doesn`t seem very pleasant. Heck, I would be happy if they added some more flat rides back there, or even a wild mouse coaster. Just something back there to provide some action and interest instead of a wood fence.
That land didn't have a ride in it for the first 9 years of the park. I'd love to see them plant a bunch of trees and let it overgrow again to hide The Beast.
Also, they are currently repairing the track. The section that was damaged has been removed and they are welding in new steel.

From what I'm seeing on social media there were a lot of issues. Most seem due to the the out of date facility and equipment. Also, from the photos I'm seeing it appears the concert did not sell well. I just can't bring myself to paying the listed prices for bleacher seats. To each their own.
As for the future. I think it was a cool for the 50th season, but it's time to lay it to rest next year. That land could be better used for other things.

I would like to see a dedicated electric vehicle parking/charging and bike/trike parking area.

Here's a pic of the current crowd right now less than 10 minutes before the concert. Let me say, more than I thought looking at the amount of tickets sold! They were playing announcements about buying tickets online in the park all day so maybe that helped a little.
What model potato did you take this with?

If we get anything out of this, I would like to see some of their flat rides find a second life here. Berserker, Centrifuge and Orbit look like fun rides that would fit in well here.
I’m not sure if relocating the sky ride is an easy feat considering it was built for CGA and no other park.
I'd be happy with their sky ride and place it in coney mall.

3 calendar years. This year, then next will be its last l, followed by removals. That’s my guess.
And I see KI acquiring some of CGAs flats. Possibly Tiki Twirl, Centrifuge, Delirium, Orbit, and fingers crossed Delta Flyer/Eagle's Flight Sky Ride

I just read this, just came out a few minutes ago! Cedar Fair to close California’s Great America in 11 years! What is everyone’s thoughts? This is very unexpected.
Re-read the report. They have the opportunity to lease for "up to" another 11 years. I give it 3 years and its closed. I would start looking at other park s getting rides from CGA.
