The Best Amusement Parks in Pittsburgh

Such a GREAT Day !! Kennywood afternoon & evening makes great family memories. Young and old a like can enjoy the day at Kennywood. The park has changed many times over the years, but the park still has the old memories and new ones to make. The price is comparable to any other amusement park. Discounts can be found if you look online for them. Giant Eagle grocery store still offers discounts. The food price is also comparable. It is something you should plan for if money is an issue. We have never had a bad experience. From open to close the kids have a wonderful day. The ride home is always peaceful with kids asleep in the back seat, holding tight to their bag of cotton candy.

We bought group tickets- that was the best deal I could find. The park was clean. Staff were polite and helpful. They check your bags upon entry but it was a reasonable search. Not overly nosy. We ran to costco for pizza And ate it at the picnic tables. The food lines looked very long. I'd suggest the picnic tables. They are in the shade. The park is large and had separate areas with lots of chairs. But we were there on a Monday. A busy weekend would be very different. We had a 10 year old and 3 teens, and 3 adults. There was enough different things to keep us happy. It was pricey but we all had a good time.

Family with two preschoolers and a 3rd grader had a fantastic time. First time. Many rides up front are for bigger kids (48 and taller), but our preschoolers LOOOOOVED Raccoon Lagoon area where there are tons of similar rides for the little ones. They were tired at the end of the day, but wouldn't stop hopping from ride to ride with big smiles. Riding through Daniel Tiger's neighborhood on the trolley was a highlight for one of them. Water park was a huge hit for all of us. The little ones couldn't go on the big slides, but there are a two awesome areas JUST for the little ones that are way fun. The lifeguards are all over the place. I really appreciated that they took charge.
