1/27/2020 Knott's Peanuts Celebration 2020![]()
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!!

![]() Last weekend we were invited out for the second year of the Knott's Peanut's Celebration. In it's second year there are more shows, more treats and more fun around every corner. Let's check it out!! Written by Gregg Condon Welcome to the Peanut's Celebration!! Some pretty amazing photo ops at the front of the park Photoshop contest!! There are a couple of things Knott's has been stepping up the past few years, one of them is the Merchandise. I'll be the first to admit I'm not a huge "theme park shirt" person (other than Halloween stuff), but I really love some of this merch. The other thing they've stepped up the last few years is the food. Let's take a look at some of the great treats for the Peanut's Celebration. Lots of fun with the Peanut's Characters all over the park Pig Pen is back!! Another of the new things this year is the Woodstock's Birds-Eye View. Check out a POV!! Love all of these great signs around Camp Snoopy It's somebody's birthday, or a Charlie Brown Thanksgiving (the best Charlie Brown special, don't @ us) So we'll be the first to admit, most of the shows at Peanut's Celebration aren't really made for us, but we thought this show was pretty fun. Some video of the show and highlights of the entire Celebration Moo We of course had to take a couple of minutes to check out the progress on the rapids Flags in the ground, Hyper confirmed!! (some people on Twitter didn't get the joke) Last year the Sketch School had Peanut's specials showing between Show Times, but sadly not this year. We also managed to get a new POV of the Calico Mine Ride since we had the cart almost to ourselves. One of the best rides at the park, or anywhere for that matter. Coolest store!! Thanks Knott's for having us out, we had an absolute blast as always. Knott's Peanut's Celebration runs through March 10th. Check out all of the info about the event here! Related Videos:
Related Updates: ![]() The Holiday Season is here, and last night we were out at Knott's Merry Farm for our first holiday event of the season. It's another amazing year at Merry Farm, lots of great new things to see, holiday food and the parks merchandise game continues to improve. Let's head in and see!! Written by Gregg Condon Welcome to Knott's Merry Farm!! Sure, it's only November, and I'm usually a Grinch when it comes to Holiday stuff so early in the year. But as I said on our social media during the event, I didn't seem to mind this year. There's been so much bad stuff going on lately that a bit of Holiday Cheer was exactly what we needed. We hope you feel the same. No fog, but lots of pretty lights. And snow No more Dark Ride for 2018. Maybe next year they should have a holiday overlay to the Dark Ride for Merry Farm? =) Lots of great new decorations in The Boardwalk Obligatory construction update Really loved the decorations in Fiesta Village Be sure to check out our video from our visit featuring Snow and Glow and more around the park. We'll cover the shows the next time we visit. They also had a great opening night tree lighting ceremony. The park truly does look amazing all times of the year, but especially during Merry Farm Camp Snoopy was very colorful These swans got stuck Santa's Christmas Cabin is back where you can try a variety of holiday treats, and of course, hang out with the big guy. Speaking of Santa's Cabin ... let's check out some of the food Amazing Elote is always awesome This was interesting. I'm not a fan of sweet potato so I didn't enjoy it as much as others did. If you get one treat at Knott's Merry Farm, make it this. I need this recipe. Yule log. Not a log, I don't have a log. If I had a log not in the sense that you think I said I did. Some awesome Merry Farm merch available this year as well. May have to expand my closet beyond Halloween shirts. =) Thanks for checking out our Knotts Merry Farm Update. We wish you all the best. Don't forget, if you get cold, be sure to put your lamb over your shoulders. =) Related Videos:
