Looks like the International Street webcam is down now, so I bet they’re starting work on the outdoor patio area for the Kings Island Trading Company soon.

When you keep watching Kings Island YouTube videos from the past! Come on April!

New update today, parts of the water coaster have arrived!

That would open up more space for a new coaster in Area 72, which would be nice, but I still think Action Zone is the area that mostly needs a new coaster, one that goes over the entrance plaza like Leviathan does at Canada's Wonderland, or at least can get closer to it.

Looks like on the webcam for Planet Snoopy/Camp Snoopy, we have work being done on the concrete in front of the Snoopy Boutique building, maybe for new concrete or pavers even? They are definitely busy this off season!

I doubt the park is going to cancel our WinterFest, it’s been a very popular event ever since it came back in 2017, and they’ve been adding to it, making it better. My guess is with the cuts in labor this year, maybe it just became too much and they had to cut something else so this is what they had to cut. Hopefully someday they can bring it back. Edit: looks like Carowinds is keeping theirs, so that’s a good sign ours is staying.

Nice construction blog from the park! Hopefully we can see the Island Smokehouse get some new paint soon.

Okay after looking at Google map and Exhibit A, it looks like it's for the Soak City expansion to make more room.

That would be nice and allow Soak City more room to expand.

Kind of surprised about Scream Weaver, that's too bad.

Yeah I was going to say, if Carowinds announces next season that they're closing Nighthawk and to get your last rides in while you can, we won't have much to worry about here, but since they went the SFGADV route, we better get our rides in on The Bat next season, anything is possible, I wouldn't think KI would do that, but it's better to be safe than sorry.

You guys are on top of it! Now will it go in Rivertown, Coney Mall, Action Zone? Hmm

So adding more operating days, then the next is Planet Snoopy/Camp Snoopy and then Soak City. Has the park ever opened any earlier than what they do now?

With the new expansion for Soak City in 2025, I am wondering what else the water park needs to add, another water coaster is an idea I've have read. Here is the area I think the park can expand Soak City to next, hopefully within another 4 - 5 years.

Where is this at in Coney Mall? Edit, read the other few above posts, near Jukebox Diner, interesting!
