Add two coasters to the Winterfest lineup and you get results:

I agree. Having visited both KD’s Winterfest and BGW’s Christmas Town it was obvious. The park with the most coasters operating drew a larger crowd. That was 2023, and in 2024 what did KD do to level the playing field with BGW’s Christmas Town? Nothing.

The 2026 attraction could be just a new Vekoma train for Woodstock Air Rail. Here is a picture of the train clearance envelope that was sitting out during this past Winterfest:

These cheap $150 gold passes are starting to rear its ugly head.

It was replaced with an all electric replica by Chance Rides: https://www.chancerides.com/electric_cphuntington_train/

It appears the steam locomotive from Knotts Berry Farm will be going on sale soon: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/152nFPQx8K/?

Dollywood unveil’s a new, cheaper, pass for East Tennessees residents called the Volunteer Summer Pass: https://www.dollywood.com/tickets/season-passes/

If that policy is implemented at KI there won't be any seating available to sit and eat at G&G because the people who hang out at Starbucks will just move next door...
