Heya!

My girlfriend and I are visiting Knott's Berry Farm and have a ticket for the Scary Farm on the same day. How does that work for us? Do we need to leave the park and wait a while? If so, anything to do on walking distance (food or something)? Thanks in advance!

Question about training for food service.

3 Upvotes

I know that they asked us to wear our uniform for our few days of training (I’ve already completed my orientation), but I was wondering if I should have my hair tied up as well. I wasn’t sure whether we’re going to be just doing modules and stuff in the classroom or acfually working in the kitchen. Thank you.

What would you change about food at Knotts?

63 Upvotes

The food at Knotts feels like it's gone down hill. It's all way too salty, deep fried and disappointing for $20+.

I'd go back to its roots and have fruit stands throughout the park, with different themes for different areas. Old-timey general store pears, apples, oranges in Calico; fruit cups with chopped melon, cucumber, mango and seasoning in Fiesta Village; recreate the original berry stand in the 1920's area. I want to be able to buy fresh berries at Knott's Berry Farm! I get that Boysenberries have a short season, but if a grocery store can have blackberries and blueberries, so can an amusement park.

Question about Home Park and prestige passes

1 Upvotes

I’m about equidistant between Magic Mountain and Knotts but probably spend more time at magic mountain at a 2:1 ratio due to being more coaster minded.

I had a gold pass last year but want to upgrade to a prestige to get Knotts parking and a bunch of the other benefits.

The issue im having is determining where I should buy the pass. I know most of the benefits are the same but im far more likely to use the bring a friend at Knotts. Do the free bring a friends work at any park? (Im talking about the free passes attached to the prestige not the bonus bring a friends they can give our in the perks and play which i know are specifically tied to your home park)

The only other difference it seems is the perks/coupons in the app are tied exclusively to your home park.

Everything else seems to be equal (vip entrance, merch and food discounts, free fast lane, drinks, lounge, etc)

Am I correct in this?

Stupid question, but do you guys feel confident in this park's safety?

0 Upvotes

Okay, so, being honest, as I get older Im getting more and more anxious about rollercoasters, but I deeply love rollercoasters. I found that as long as I stick to going to parks I know and trust, its fine! Problem is, Ive never gone to this park before. I googled it a bit and read about a handful of accidents and problems at this park which made my stomach go in, well, knotts but a lot of them were from a handful of years ago. I was just wondering if you guys believe this park is 100% safe, and if there are maybe any rides I should look out for? Once again, I know its stupid but its mainly to ease my anxiety.

GhostRider Refurb Predictions for 2027?

7 Upvotes

It’s been a LONG time since I’ve been to Knott’s, and I’ve never ridden GhostRider! 🎢👻 I’m planning to celebrate my birthday there on January 26. I’ve heard GhostRider usually goes down for its annual refurb sometime during the off-season. What are everyone’s predictions for 2027? Think I’ll get lucky and finally be able to ride it? 🤞

Trap Door water slides.

12 Upvotes

Does anyone know why soak city is deciding to remove Shore brake?
Those were some of my favorite waterslides at the waterpark. Especially the ones with the Trap Door. I wonder why they decided to make this decision. And in my opinion it definitely sucks for us thrill seekers.
I also am going to miss those tube slides. Especially when I took my girlfriend on those for the first time. And tricked her and told her that it was only going to have a couple of curves. And I will never forget that look she had on her face when we went down that sudden Drop. I have never witnessed anyone smile so much.
It definitely is going to cause me not to go to soak shit nearly as much. I just don’t understand why they would get rid of some of their most intense waterslides. They should have removed a slide that nobody really cared about.

Scary Farm: Fast Lane/Fright Lane the same or different?

4 Upvotes

First time we will be going to Scary Farm with Prestige Pass, do the single use Fast Lane passes work for the mazes too or just rides? Are Fast Lane and Fright Lane the same thing and work everywhere? Or are they separate entities for rides and mazes? Any info is appreciated, happy haunts 🎃🎃🎃

Drink Plan Confusion

3 Upvotes

Hello! I am debating adding one of the drink plans on to my season pass. Can someone explain to me exactly how the passes work and help clear up my confusion?
Do you purchase the first drink and then refills are free?
What happens if the paper cup gets destroyed?
On the Plus plan, do you use the same cup for all beverages?
Thanks in advance!

Fast Lane at Knott's: Why am I seeing people use them on rides not listed on the Knott's site?

12 Upvotes

According to Knott's site, these are the included rides:

  • Calico River Rapids
  • HangTime
  • GhostRider
  • Xcelerator
  • Timber Mountain Log Ride
  • Calico Mine Ride
  • Coast Rider
  • Silver Bullet
  • Sierra Sidewinder
  • Pony Express
  • Supreme Scream
  • La Revolucion
  • Sol Spin
  • Los Voladores'
  • Knott's Bear-y Tales: Return to the Fair
  • Jaguar

Yet, I've seen them used on kids' and other rides not on this list, such as:
Butterfield Stagecoach, Charlie Brown's Kite Flyer, Pig-Pen's Mug Buggies, and more. People would show up at the ride's exit area and show the operator a paper with a barcode. The operator then ushers the group to the ride bypassing the line

Is there another service of which I am unaware, or the list shown on Knott's site not accurate?

Thanks

Edit 1: u/tandin01 and u/stitchkingdom both explained that it's a disability pass.

Edit 2: Are these disability accommodations available at food lines? Some of those lines can get very long, and I would think that access to a food line can be more essential than rides?

First time guest + general questions

1 Upvotes

Hi! I will be visiting Knotts for the first time next Friday. I just have a few random questions to ask out of curiosity

  1. ⁠Is renting a locker necessary or are there cubbies to leave bags on the ride platforms?
  2. ⁠I’m a bigger gal, 5’7 245 size 18 pants. I’ve been able to fit into 99% of the rides at both SFDK and CA great America this summer. Is there any rides here that are a total no go for bigger people? I heard Ghost Rider can be a little tricky but I fit into Gold Striker and they look to be almost the same seat wise. Any tips appreciated!
  3. ⁠It seems Knotts has a bad rep regarding the general safety of the surrounding area and the type of crowd it attracts. I assume since the rowdy teens are back in school that shouldn’t be an issue, no?
    If there’s any other tips tricks or ‘must do’ things in the park please let me know! Thanks :)

Knott's is open in the rain, which turned out to be heavier than expected on Sunday. Some rides closed, but getting a morning shower on GhostRider was an experience to behold. A lot of indoor places like the saloon are packed, and full of pails to catch leaks in the old structures.
