    I don't get Good Friday off of work... and I have ONE vacation day that I can use at that point on the year. I have to choose between media day and opening day. Media day, as I understand it: compara

  • Mod Edit: Added the 2014 year to the topic title to avoid confusion with the 2015 Opening Day. The 2015 calendar has not yet been released.

Plus they have advertised $1 deals similar to Dollar Days over Labor Day weekend.

Have you been to Dollar Days? Can you eat during it? lol

Every time there's a new post in this thread, I momentarily think "woo-hoo! They announced it!"

Every. Dadgummed. Time.

At some point that will likely happen though, unless a new topic is started for discussing the 2015 operating calendar.

A certain park in Ohio typically announces its calendar within days of New Jersey's Finest Theme Park doing so, and typically opens 2-4 weeks after the Garden State Park does...which, given the latitudes, hurts my head.

See also Kings Dominion.

You have to admit in the past Kings Island has opened way too early. Opening day is inherently busy, but I feel like they had a lot of draining days between Opening Day (which was typically the first weekend in April) and the last weekend in April (when they open now). Granted, weather is and will always be a gamble but they sure did have a lot of cold Saturdays in which they couldn't run steel coasters, the park would be dead, and they'd often close early. Heck, I remember them closing at 2pm one day.

But as a reminder, they technically have more operating days now than then since they go daily earlier.

In 2005 I remember the park had to close the Sunday of opening weekend due to snow. That was when they opened in late March or early April.

I ran the 5k at the park in May, and had planned to spend the day there. Thought I was going to freeze to death. Left before 11 just because I couldn't stand it anymore.
