💬 What Parents Say

• 💡Purchase tickets online in advance to skip the line, and visit during Family Fun Days (Thursday & Friday 11am-5pm or Saturday & Sunday 11am-5:30pm) for special pricing
• 💡Tickets are only $4 per ride, but note that carousel and steam train tickets are not interchangeable—plan your budget accordingly if you want to experience both attractions
• 💡Bring a picnic to enjoy in the park while visiting; the venue has a small snack bar on-site, but packing your own food gives you more flexibility and saves money
• 💡Children under a certain height must be accompanied by an adult, and only select carousel horses can accommodate adults—plan accordingly if you want to ride together
• 🕐The carousel is especially magical during the holiday season when Santa visits—plan a December outing to experience this special seasonal attraction
