MillenniumforceMike Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 I know it's 2 years away, but Kings Islands 50th anniversary is right around the corner. A lot of people including me have had ideas for the anniversary but right now it's only rumors. So I created this thread to see what you want to see in the 2022 season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeeastFarmer Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 I want to see the old logo used more in the park and not just on merchandise. I'd like to see a slight refresh to the entry plaza, with the logo on the berm over on the right (big and bold, not the small plastic CF logo that KD has). I'd love to have the wisteria tunnel return, and I'd love to see area entry signs come back. And polka music on the Oktoberfest speakers 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FUN&ONLY! Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 I would like to see a Racer repaint, new area entry signs like @BeeastFarmer said, enhanced landscaping, a 50th anniversary parade like Cedar Point, and if we are getting a new ride, I would love to see Phantom Theater return! I know some of this is a stretch, but I really want Kings Island’s 50th anniversary to be just like 2019 with tons of nostalgia brought back! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope that is in the works. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silver2005 Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 If only there was a way to safely bring back PTC's with buzz bars on Racer. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimParker85 Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 My wish list for the 50th anniversary: 1. Significant Racer refurbishment and 1 year of backwards Racer available on one side of the coaster. 2. Boo Blasters refurbishment into a new experience, possibly back to a prior theme. 3. Rename Woodstock's Express into Beastie. 4. Anniversary parade as a love letter to the park's history. 5. Midnight closes on summer Saturdays. 6. Refurbishment/retheme of the restaurant above main gate. 7. Fresh paint for Diamondback. 8. Remodel of interior of Festhaus with new dining options.options. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MillenniumforceMike Posted August 25, 2020 Author Share Posted August 25, 2020 what I want to see is the renaming of the KI&MVRR's locomotive just for the season back to their original names blue/kenny van meter/12 back to Tecumseh green/Lew Brown/19 back to Simon Kenton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maestro Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 I know it's been mentioned many times before - but always thought a museum of some sort would be a nice add. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
