That is a good question. Our shows page has better info than the park app right now. https://kicentral.com/current-shows/
Country Crossroads is at 1:30, 2:30, 4:00, 5:30 PM
Hot Rhythm Nights is not even on the app to see show times even thought it started last weekend.
Gazillion Bubble Show starts this weekend May 31st. No times listed.
Trailblazers X-treme! starts June 21. No times listed.

I think the new tent looks great and makes sense for that location. Ate there on Saturday and enjoyed the shade and turf. Looks far better than the eyesore the Skyline structure is.

I understand people's concerns about its placement blocking the Carousel. I also see where this will be helpful when it comes to Food and Wine, Carivale & general seating.

Im getting Wrath of Rakshasa/Six Flags Great America ads on here lol
You're welcome??

I fixed the formatting. In dark mode all you saw was a link. At first I thought Don was dreaming about Holiday World and posting random HW links on KIC.

Prior planning prevents poor performance.
I think your may be judging Grace before we get to know her more. She made a judgement call that her being here to promote the current addition to Soak City was as or even more effective than letting the now former communications director stay to promote it. That move speaks volumes to me.
I am hoping when the dust settles, that KIC and the season pass page can have a working relationship with the communications department again. Chris and I would love nothing more than to order a new card and present it to the next Communications director at a future Coasterstock.

Also, look at the issues we had with Monster earlier this year. There was no official communication from Kings Island about it so anyone who saw the initial post could be led to believe that Guest Relations confirmed the ride was being retired.
The reason the website was even updated with proper information about Monster was because of KIC.

Interesting that it's now Park Manager vs Vice President and General Manager.
Probably changed the title to say it is a new position with a totally different pay scale.

When in the heck is this thing going to open? Im not going until I'm 100% certain its open.
If I had to guess, (TOTAL GUESS) they are waiting on a part from Intamin. Seems to happen a lot with that manufacturer.

Really cool story. Thanks for sharing the link.

Honestly, I'd bet it's a new haunt. Cedar Flags probably won't spend the money to do anything major to that building.
I would agree unless we see definitive evidence otherwise. With all the staff cuts across the chain, I would agree with the second statement as well.

It's time for something with some teeth for the thrill seekers.
Even Silver Dollar City has more extreme coasters than KI. We definitely need a few "What did I just ride?" coasters.

Congratulations! The newest coaster enthusiast will be here before you know it.

Based on relaxing, I choose IS. Just enjoying a drink with some Fountain ERT & seeing others have a great day really allows me to forget about everything outside those turnstiles for a while.

Also, what is up with the red train on Diamondback? They were running three train operations just fine yesterday, but today they had red train in the storage shed, and then added it back on a little while later. This is the same train that was off the track the first few weeks of operation, correct?
Overall, today was better than my previous days, and I enjoyed the nice weather!
Running all 3 today.

I am fairly certain that if The Beast were ever to be slated for demolition the entire tri-state area and all of Cincinnati as a whole would riot in the streets and swarm the park with picket signs
I forgot to add the followup after my post. We went to ride Beast after a ride on MT. It had a full queue. I started laughing out loud thinking about what that guy thought when he got over there.

@Dane controls the ads. I don't have access to that as far as I know. I will give him a text and see if he can get it fixed.

Well considering they restored/upgraded the lighting in the hanger queue, I think FoF will be sticking around for a few more years. I hope whoever put in the work for these effects can get the credit they deserve! Credit to KI Central for capturing the lighting in action, videos don't capture how great it looks! https://www.instagram.com/reel/DIo36bup5Ew/?igsh=MThkdTJkeHRmaDRlbg%3D%3D
Thank you and I agree. You must see it in person. Here is the clip.

You should upload some of those photos to the archives. Just a thought.
I am happy to upload them to our galleries @BB1.

Did your Pub Burger come with any toppings? I've seen comments that Jukebox Diner removed their toppings bar, so the Brewhouse might be the only place in the park that someone can find lettuce for their hamburger now.
Mine did last Saturday.

Just now, sitting in the brake run of Diamondback.
"We'll go ride The Beast next. It's so old no one rides it. We'll get right on it."

Now that Xtreme Skyflyer is no more, what do you think will end up in it's place? Here is the photos I look on Pass Holder Preview.

Here is the sign I took a picture of on Sunday.
