Knott’s Berry Farm launches pay-per-ride option to rival Disneyland

Knott’s Berry Farm has torn a page from the Disneyland and Six Flags playbooks with a new pay-per-ride option that will let riders skip the line on the most popular roller coasters and dark rides without paying for an all-day Fast Lane pass.

Knott’s Berry Farm has quietly rolled out a new pay-per-ride option that charges $7.50 and up per individual ride as part of the Fast Lane front-of-the-line program.

MonteZOOMa reimagining now slated for 2025!!!

Soo there has been a lot of rumors lately causing panic among people concerning the fate of Monte. I haven't reported on them as they weren't even really rumors, just speculation that didn't have me convinced. So what were they:

Last month Knott's updated their park map which didn't include MonteZOOMa on it. The park website still had Monte listed on it and the map doesn't have any of the future Camp Snoopy attractions in it, so to me not an accurate representation of what's to come. Could just be a temporary change to keep public focus on Camp Snoopy.

Cedar Fair's SEC filing mentions a terminated project at Knott's. This is known. Not new. The project as it was and with the manufacturers they were using was terminated. Doesn't mean they stopped looking for new people to restart the project.

When photos of Knott's team surveying Monte surfaced I had a gut feeling it was them getting things in order. It has been too long with nothing said for it to have been cancelled. Now if only I had the same confidence in Mystery Lodge coming back...

Work now "re-zooming" on MonteZOOMa!
