I'm looking forward to seeing if they will be able to make this even successful.

After Paramount did so poorly with Winterfest, I think that it will be very telling as to if Paramount really wanted Winterfest to succeed or not.

This event will probably do very well since they are extending it to season pass holders unlike what Paramount did for Winterfest (well, they gave season pass holders a very small credit on admission). Paramount really missed the boat with their horrible pricing structure of $29.99 considering when this summer Cedar Point lowered admission to the entire park for $24.95 with special coupons. It's also sad to see the Holiday Illumination trees sitting idle behind the Jolly Rancher drink station on the pond. Maybe someday in a zillon years Winterfest will return. I still remember the early Winterfests where the park sold out every night and you had to wait a hour to skate on the Royal Fountain. Well, guess its time to make Hershey or Dollywood my regular Christmas Amusement Park.

I`m actually quite surprised the park hasn`t removed those Christmas trees from Swan Lake.
