Knott’s Berry Farm announced today that its celebration of the 75th anniversary of Ghost Town will run May 27 through September 5. To mark 75 years of Ghost Town, Knott’s will reopen GhostRider, the longest, tallest, and fastest wooden roller coaster on the West Coast on May 27 following a complete restoration. As part of the summer 2016 celebration, Knott’s will also introduce a new interactive entertainment experience called Ghost Town Alive!. Ghost Town Alive! allows guests to play an active role in shaping what happens throughout the town every day through September 5.
Starbucks Coffee
Hey all you coffee drinkers! Here is some exciting news-Knott’s Berry Farm will be opening its first Starbucks location at the park. The 935 square foot Starbucks store will open in March 2016 in the California MarketPlace, just outside the Park’s main entrance, and will offer Starbuck’s world class coffee drinks and entrees.
The all new GhostRider
All of the coasters trains will be replaced with state of the art new Millennium Flyer trains designed to look like mining cars, each with gold, silver, or copper accents. As part of the construction, the mid-course brake run will be removed, allowing riders to enjoy a relentless, ride from the moment the train descends the first 108 ft. drop to the moment it returns to the station’s new, smooth magnetic brake run. GhostRider was the last attraction commissioned by the Knott family, and this restoration project ensures that the family’s final gift to the park will continue to thrill generations of thrill seekers to come.
