Welcome back to the Knott's Peanuts Celebration! The first event at Knott's Berry Farm for a 2022 season that is filled with events pretty much every month. This years event has been extended and will run through March 6th. Click Here for all of the info. Written by Gregg Condon  It was a beautiful day to be back at Knott's Berry Farm. Be sure to check out or video update below as well!  Lots of great merchandise for this event, as with every Knott's event.
Always love these signs in Camp Snoopy 
Had to take one last spin on Montezooma's Revenge. The ride re-opened after closing for it's long refurbishment. No date for it's closure has been announced yet, but we've been assured by the park they will let everybody know.
Our first treat of the event was the Wah Wah Wah Buffalo Popcorn Chicken Loaded Fries (say that 5 times fast). They were quite tasty but other than the sauce, something you could make very easily at home.
Love these character outlines that are all throughout the park.   The Music Goes Round and Round has moved from the main Calico Stage to Camp Snoopy. The show definitely works better here.
Our next two meals were the PB&J Burger and Chicken Parm Grilled Cheese. Both were ok. The burger used store-bought Smuckers Strawberry jelly instead of Knott's Boysenberry for some reason. The bread on the Grilled Cheese was great, but the insides were not very warm. Definitely needed more melty cheese and more heated chicken parm.  We didn't get a chance to see the Marcie character, so this will have to do. =)  Xcelerator is back open after it's repaint, and it looks great!  Be sure to stop by K-NOT radio in the Boardwalk. Always a fun treat!  Lots of characters out in the park to greet guests.  The only major construction project going on at the park right now are new restrooms and a new restaurant. Rumor is the restrooms will be moving over on this side near the bumper cars.  Love the themed signs.   A look at the new restaurant artwork.  The former bathrooms will be a part of the new restaurant.
The Snickerdoodle Ice Cream Sandwich. It was very tasty but we thought it was going to be with ice cream other than vanilla. Maybe next time we'll try it with Boysenberry soft serve.  Overall we had a fun time at the Peanut's Celebration, but to be honest, it's my least favorite of the Knott's "events". It's definitely geared towards young children, and that's great, but that's not us. The food we tried was just "ok" especially compared to the amazing food they have available at the Boysenberry Festival and Merry Farm. We will most likely be back before the celebration ends and we'll try some more food of course. Related Videos

This weekend we were invited out to the third year of the Knott's Peanuts Celebration. It was a great time at the park, our first visit since Merry Farm, so we were looking forward to not only trying out some tasty treats, seeing some fun shows, but also spending time at one of our favorite theme parks.
Let's head in for some fun!!

Welcome to Knott's, as you can see it was a beautiful day.
Knott's Beary Farm is opening a Build a Bear Workshop soon.
We love that they have these great events all year, and they all seem to get longer each year, which is great.
Sorry Chuck, Lucy made me do it.
We also put together a highlight video of the event, be sure to check it out.
Welcome to Ghost Town
There were Kite-Eating Trees EVERYWHERE!
Lots of yummy treats all around the park. No tasting cards like they have for the Boysenberry Festival, but I'm sure those are coming one of these years.
Pig-Pen's Pig Pen is back!!
Say hi to Ted everybody!!
Piggies!! (much more of them in our highlight video above)
Hi Pig-Pen!!
Our first stop was the Sketch School in the Bird Cage Theatre. It's super fun.
We learned how to draw Charlie Brown!
Well, kind of. =)
More Kite's!!
We'll stop eating now in preparation. =)
Not much going on outside of the new Bear'y Tales, even the Iron Reef signs are still there.
Lots of great Peanuts Celebration merchandise!!
Not a cloud in the sky
We didn't partake in the $15 shake this time. Remember when John Travolta was questioning a $5 shake? =)
Woodstock's Bird's Eye View is back!!
We did a live stream of it on our FB page
The Timber Mountain Log Ride is closed for it's annual refurbishment
Later in the day it appeared they were doing some work on the bottom of the final drop.
YUM!!
We were invited in to a Media Day reception where we got to see all of the food available at the event.
And a bit more merchandise.
Slideshow of all the yummy food.
We didn't get to try all of this, mostly the desserts, but what we had was quite tasty.
Spike is here!!
The all new show Happiness is... was very popular.
It was full of energy and kids seemed to love it. We realize we aren't the target audience for these kinds of shows though. But if you are, you'll love it.
Over in Camp Snoopy, lots of fun photo ops.
And of course the return of Beagle Bonanza
Our POV of Beagle Bonanza from last years event.
All new for this year.
Outside the park, we saw this in the California Marketplace. But we didn't see them for sale anywhere. Anybody know where they are? Definitely would like a nice Knott's throw.
For those who still need their Knott's Scary Farm sign, the Department 56 store has them in stock!!
Sadly, the time came for us to say goodbye to Knott's.
But we had an amazing time!!
