Summer Time at Knott’s Berry Farm

The summer season has arrived here in Southern California! Even if we've been met with a little extra June gloom. But some off beat weather has never kept us away from our favorite SoCal theme parks. Especially Knott's Berry Farm with their triple threat of experiences with Ghost Town Alive, Knott's Summer Nights, and the reimagined Fiesta Village.

THE REIMAGINED FIESTA VILLAGE BREATHES NEW LIFE INTO A SOCAL THEME PARK CLASSIC

Fiesta Village originally opened at Knott's Berry Farm back in 1969 to pay homage to California's deeply rooted Mexican and Spanish heritage. It was also the second "land" added to Knott's Berry Farm after the completion of Ghost Town. Much like Ghost Town, many families who've visited Knott's over the years have fond family memories of spending time in Fiesta Village. Or quite possibly it was the spot of your very first roller coaster, Montezuma's Revenge! Over the past (almost) 55 years, plenty of happy memories were made in Fiesta Village.

The Theme Park Duo Podcast: EPISODE 150 – SCREAM BREAK AT SIX FLAGS MAGIC MOUNTAIN REVIEW

And we ventured out to Valencia to visit Six Flags Magic Mountain to take in this brand new event for ourselves. I mean, who wouldn't want some haunt vibes this early in the year?

Knott’s Berry Farm Boysenberry Festival 2023 Review

If someone were to ask me what my favorite time of year at Knotts Berry farm was, I honestly don’t think I would know how to answer because there are just so many amazing options to choose from. Do I go spooky and say Scary Farm? Do I embrace the magic of Knotts during the holidays and say Merry Farm? Or what about the undeniable magic of Ghost Town Alive? My honest answer would have to be that I love them all as their time comes around each year. And now, the time has once again come around for the amazing, the delicious, the PURPLE, Boysenberry Festival!

Peanuts Celebration 2023 is BACK at Knott’s Berry Farm

This past weekend, we got the chance to check out Knott's Berry Farm while Peanuts Celebration was in full swing for 2023! In this house, we absolutely adore the Peanuts characters. They seem to find their way into so many different family traditions throughout the year. Whether that's watching It's The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown during Fall or watching A Charlie Brown Christmas during the holidays. There is always a time for the Peanuts Gang! So coming back to the Farm for another year of Peanuts Celebration got us excited because we've loved the events in the past and welcome any opportunity to inject the famous characters Charles Schulz imagined up back in 1950 to all corners of the park. And this year, Knott's has included some new offerings that we just adore.

HOLIDAY IN THE PARK AT SIX FLAGS MAGIC MOUNTAIN 2023

On a cold night in December, we ventured out to Valencia to experience Holiday in the Park at Six Flags Magic Mountain. This even has always been a favorite of ours because of their unique decorations, thousands of twinkling lights, fun meet and greets, and the guest interactions. We actually think Holiday in the Park is the strongest event SFMM puts on during the year in fact. And if our kiddo's reaction to snow in the park is any indication, we think she would agree with us as well. Below will be a Visit In Pictures of our time at SFMM for Holiday in the Park.
