Knott's Berry Farm New Fiesta Village and Ghost Town Alive

6/9/2023

 
It's been a busy week for updates, but we've got one more for you today! Last weekend we headed over to Knott's Berry Farm to finally check out the redone Fiesta Village and have some fun in Ghost Town where Ghost Town Alive is going on right now. 

Overall it was a great day at the park despite the crowds and we were very impressed with Fiesta Village. Let's head right in! 

Picture
It was a packed day at the park so we had to park in the grass on Western, so got to come in this way!
Picture
The Chaperone Policy is back since our last visit. We'll see if there are more changes before Scary Farm.
Picture
In addition to Fiesta Village and Ghost Town Alive, it's also Summer Nights season!
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
I was on the search for Boysenberry Beer, which was surprisingly hard to find. But this Boysenberry Seltzer thing was yummy, and I'm not even a Seltzer fan.
Picture
Picture
I did try the Hot Honey Biscuit Sandwich. It was quite messy, but very tasty. 
Picture
FINALLY found one in Ghost Town Grill!
Picture
Time to head into the all new Fiesta Village, which pretty much starts out here right now due to Viva La Fiesta.
Picture
The area looks absolutely fantastic.
Picture
Picture
Kudos to the entire Knott's team for a job well done here.
Picture
Picture
These Rock gardens are fantastic and really bring some much needed vegetation to the area.
Picture
Picture
Not much going on with Montezooma's Revenge right now. We don't anticipate this opening this year.
Picture
The Fiesta Village entrance from Camp Snoopy
Picture
La Revolucion also got a new paint job and sign and it looks great!
Picture
Lots of statues around the area, apparently these were explained during media night, but I couldn't find anything about them.
Picture
Signature shot?
Picture
Picture
Picture
The longest line we saw all day. LOL!
Picture
They've got some new Jaguar and Montezooma's Revenge shirts.
Picture
I have to be honest, I thought the $35 price point was a bit much, I remember when all Knott's shirts were in the $20-$25 range. I would have purchased one if they still were.
Picture
Lots of Fiesta Village merchandise!
Picture
Picture
Let's check out Casa California!
Picture
When I saw some pictures a few weeks back I wasn't sure how this would look, but it looks much better in person!
Picture
Didn't head into the eatery, but will at some point.
Picture
Picture
Picture
Papas Mexicanas was not open, weird because apparently it was on media night.
Picture
Can't wait to try this, and I didn't notice that it was actually at Coasters until right now. LOL.
Picture
Picture
The entrance from near Silver Bullet.
Picture
Let's head into Ghost Town and check out Ghost Town Alive!
Picture
Ghost Town is looking absolutely fantastic!
Picture
Picture
Picture
We caught some of the Ghost Town Alive fun which you can see in our update video above.
Picture
He did something bad I'm sure.
Picture
She just showed her ankle so only had to hold onto the jail bars. =)
Picture
Over in the Boardwalk, Xcelerator is STILL closed. No word on when it will reopen, but hopefully soon.
Picture
And lastly, something is going on under Bear-y Tales, not sure if this is for Scary Farm or what.
Picture
This is where Trapped was previously, so perhaps a return for the 50th. We'll see.

Knott's Berry Farm Update - Fiesta Village, New Pizza Restaurant, Scary Farm, Summer Nights and More!

7/9/2022

 
Happy Saturday everybody and welcome to our first update from Knott's Berry Farm since February. That's right, we even skipped the Boysenberry Festival this year. Just been busy with life and haven't had a chance to get down to the park. 

Made a quick stop on my way home from San Diego as we noticed we were having some issues with our Season Passes, and I had to get it addressed before our trip to Cedar Point, Kings Island and Canada's Wonderland next month. Happy to say we're all good!! 

But before that epic trip, let's see what's going on at Knott's. There is a lot!

Always remember where you parked
Picture
Montezooma's is obviously closed, Xcelerator being closed is a bummer.
Picture
As of yesterday, lots of walls all around Fiesta Village. Still not quite sure what they're doing here, but we can't wait to find out!
Picture
Picture
The walls extend all the way around the Arcade, Shop, Stage and La Papa Loca.
Picture
They've been nice enough to let everybody know where the entertainment is.
Picture
Get your Carne Asada Fries fix at Wilderness Broiler!
Picture
Not much visible work going on with Montezooma's Revenge.
Picture
Picture
Picture
Pizza for dinner sounded good! Let's check out Prop Shop Pizzeria!
Picture
They've added a refreshments booth outside of the restaurant. Although it's hard to tell where the line is.
Picture
A look at what's available.
Picture
They've also included a Refreshments Entrance to the main restaurant if you aren't getting food! Nice!
Picture
A look at the Pizza menu.
Picture
Beverages and Dessert.
Picture
The Pasta Bar. I'd suggest they swap the location of the Pizza and Pasta. The Pasta takes longer to dish out and the line backs up.
Picture
Yummy Pizza and Beer!
Picture
Enjoying Dinner with an old friend!
Picture
Summer Nights is in Full Swing!!
Picture
Picture
Picture
If you missed out on your Paranormal Inc. Final Season mugs last year, you can get them in Toy Junction in Ghost Town. I also spotted a couple of Scary Farm shirts I don't remember from last year.
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
Speaking of Scary Farm, no surprise, Mesmer is coming back!
Picture
Xcelerator's Red Train is on the track, Purple train is in pieces.
Picture
Knottsopoly has a shirt now too!
Picture
Instead of flipping your table over when playing Knottsopoly, you can just have a throw. =)
Picture
The new fruit and veggie shirts!
Picture
Picture
Picture
These things
Picture
Cups and Mugs!
Picture
Really curious to see if these are selling. Didn't notice anybody at the park wearing them.
Picture
Some other "new to me" Knott's merch. I like these!
Picture
Picture
Cheers everybody! Have a great weekend!

Knott's Merry Farm 2021 Opening Day Update

11/24/2021

 
Last Friday we headed out to Knott's Merry Farm to check out the opening day of this years event. 

After seeing a lot of pictures from the Passholder preview night on Thursday, with a LOT of people, we were worried the event would be even more busy for the opening day. It was in fact a very pleasant day. I was there a few hours in the afternoon and then back in the evening after the Legoland Tree Lighting (click the link to check out that update). 

I was able to try some yummy food and see some of the amazing entertainment at this years event. I saved a few things until we go back to the event so look for another Merry Farm update from us in a few weeks. 

Let's head in and have some fun!

Welcome back to Knott's Merry Farm! It's great to be back! 
Picture
Picture
Picture
Our first Merry Farm treat was the Turkey Poutine Tots. They were decent, could have used some more gravy and perhaps something sweet/tart like Cranberry Sauce as well. 
Picture
The Holiday Chicken Waffle Taco was very tasty! Wish the Waffle itself would have been a bit crispier, like an actual taco shell, but that was minor. Would eat again! 
Picture
Picture
Lots of cute and fun merchandise throughout the park! 
Picture
And some great decorations/photo ops
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
Xcelerator is getting a well needed paint job! 
Picture
Picture
Missed K-NOT radio every time I walked by here. 
Picture
Is Whiplash ever coming back? It's not even listed on the closed attractions outside the park. 
Picture
HangTime is back! 
Picture
Picture
Picture
There is a LOT of really great merchandise, so we figured it would be better if we put it in a slide show. 
The Factory Store got a really great new sign. We love it! 
Picture
The carolers are so great!

The Saloon looks great as always! 
Picture
Picture
I got the Santa's Little Helper as it was the only drink that didn't have Vodka. I don't do Vodka. 
Picture
Lots of great characters in the park
Picture
The "worst thing ever" cashless machines. It's ok everybody. You'll get used to it. 
Picture
Traffic cooperated coming back from the Legoland Tree Lighting and I was able to enjoy a couple of hours of Merry Farm at night. 
Picture
Picture
It looks so great I don't even miss the fog. That much. =) 
Picture
Home For The Holidays is such a fun show, a bit cheesy in parts, but pure holiday fun! Not to be missed! 
Picture
Picture
Picture
Needed the night version of this shot. =) 
Picture
Poor Ebenezer 
Picture
Santa's Cabin is back and is always a highlight for food and entertainment 
Picture
Picture
Picture
The Sticky Toffee Pudding was amazing, will definitely be getting this again! 
Picture
Camp Snoopy at night always looks so great! 
Picture
Picture
Picture
Thanks for checking out our Merry Farm update! Our plans are to be back the first weekend in December, so look for a lot more Merry Farm fun soon!
