Kennywood

Family/ friends had a great time here. We enjoyed it and had so much fun. You guys get parking free good food prices. We would highly recommend. One day wasn't enough but got most done we wanted too just wasn't able to ride all rides in one day it's big area.

Letting your automated security choose to separate me as a single dad from my two autistic children was totally lame. I had no bags, No metal. The humans had no say but to do what the robot compiter tells them? I will never come back here. Being a family season pass holder, I am so disappointed. I see now what what everyone says is true about Kennywood. It is a waste of hard earned money, and no one cares anymore. My last memory of Kennywood will be this at Christmas time. There was less and more relaxed security at the fall phantom fest this year than there was tonight.

Always a great time. Wasn't too crowded and we started some new traditions!!! I've been coming to Kennywood now for 50 years. I can remember using ride tickets. We always brought a picnic lunch and stayed the entire day. It was great to bring my kids to the park as they grew up as well. We had plenty of traditions and now that they are adults, we have started some new ones.

Born and raised in PGH. I have been to Kennywood many of times throughout the years. I have to say that I was terribly disappointed with my most recent visit during Phantom Fright. The park is nothing like it used to be. It is very overpriced for the quality that is received. 95 minute waits to get on rides. Hour waits for haunted houses. My family spent over $200 with Groupon discount tickets. Unfortunately, the park was so over crowded that we only rode just one ride. We only got to experience 3 haunted attractions. That is pathetic! They now offer you to pay more money to buy a fast pass that allows you to skip the longer lines. This is on top of what they charge you to enter the park. Sadly, the employees appeared to be truly miserable. They were unfriendly and visibly uninterested. KW used to be a loved family park full of traditions...a true staple in the Burgh. But, you can tell that it jumped on the bandwagon of trying to keep up with other thrill parks. While doing this...it lost its nostalgia of the pure authentic fun that it used to be! The templated response to guest reviews shows how KW doesn't value its guests. I will reach out as they suggest and I will give an update in the near future.
