This summer Knott’s Berry Farm, Southern California’s premier theme park, proudly offers three new rides in a fresh Camp Snoopy, a fully refurbished theme park classic- the Calico Mine Ride, and exciting live entertainment the whole family can enjoy this summer season only.
As part of the celebration of 30 years of Camp Snoopy, Knott’s has revitalized one of the most beloved children’s areas ever created. The beautification of the six-acre nature wonderland now features extensive High Sierra theming, and the addition of three new exciting family rides: Charlie Brown’s Kite Flyer, Pig Pen’s Mud Buggies and Linus Launcher.
Additionally, the classic Calico Mine Ride, Knott’s first major attraction and theme park industry icon, will re-open after undergoing a top-to-bottom refurbishment that began in early January. The renovated attraction will include dozens of new richly-detailed animatronic figures, state-of-the art lighting, audio, and all-new special effects. Passengers will embark on the most immersive mining journeys the “Calico Mining Company” has ever offered.
