Winterfest entertainment
Has anyone seen a show schedule (with times) for the live entertainment? The app lists the shows and locations... But not the times. I assume Friday will be busy, so I'd like to avoid the 5:00 car parade, but I'd also like to not miss shows. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

KI Computer Systems that create the KI Best Day
I'd assume that Kings Island would consider this type of information proprietary. At minimum it seems like something they wouldn't freely share with their competitors... So I'd be surprised if they openly share it via email. Good luck. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It's crazy. One of the busiest I've seen all year. They have employees parking on the grass fields and have opened the employee lot up for general public. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The Great Pumpkin Fest
My kids enjoy it. By this time in the season they are getting tired of just going to Kings Island (we're at about 45 visits for the year)... So the great pumpkin fest adds new excitement. We don't let our kids eat much candy, so the few pieces they get are really special to them... And they LOVE the sticky frogs and hands and the mini pumpkins and apples. I love the pulled pork at the island smokehouse. We usually swing in after church to run around and grab lunch. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Mt was going straight up the stairs, but the line was all the way to the entrance... We thought it looked like 25 but decided not to wait Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Confirmed. Smokehouse is open, although they only had pulled pork sandwiches and breaded chicken tenders with fries or Mac and cheese. I'm happy! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Anyone able to confirm if island smokehouse opened today? They are still listed on the haunt map as a dining option... So I'm hopeful as they should have removed it from the list if it was never going to open during this season Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Any chance smokehouse will be open during the kids Halloween stuff in Soak City?? A boy can dream. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Haunt 2017
Thanks. It's odd to me that Kings Island isn't promoting it. When they promote it, I'd think it would draw additional people into the park that might also spend money on things that generate revenue for Cedar Fair. By not promoting it, I'd assume they are just losing food sales when people choose the trucks over the ki food venues. Were the trucks near Coney mall or gluten free? Was this some attempt to balance the removal of Coney potato works? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Did they promote it as a food truck night? Is that happening any other nights? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well this weekend they had brisket... And while the long was to the door, they moved it relatively quickly... But it took about 15 minutes. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Has the Goodyear Blimp ever flown over Kings Island?
The last blimp I recall was the direct tv blimp which was over the beach volleyball tournament last summer. I don't tink the tennis tournament has a blimp (at least I never saw one this year) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Here's to you island smokehouse. I had lost faith in the all season dining program, but you have restored it. I'll miss your Smokey pork, crispy meaty wings, and the occasional brisket surprise. You were good to me, and I was faithful to you. See you next year. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Meal Deals, and meal deals
They are cracking down pretty heavily on the meal plans. We had minimal issues all year using an immediate family member plan (same household, same family) even if they weren't in the park. They cracked down on this at the start of the season, but then seemed to back off it... I'm guessing as the summer staff left and they had to train others, they made this a point of emphasis. I'd be willing to pay a slightly higher amount for a family share plan... Just seems crazy to buy 5 meal plans when usually only 2-3 members of my family are in the park at a time (but always a different combination of 2-3). This change/enforcement will likely have me not renew the meal plan... And certainly will keep me from adding more plans to my family. Just wish they could have a true family plan that was linked to all of our accounts.. And I'd be fine if they said you could only link your family plan to those living in your household.

The chips and salsa have been off the meal plan all season. I got a burrito there this morning... And all the signs say burrito or bowl. Maybe they ran out of tortillas, but they definitely still serve burritos Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Winterfest Returning in 2017
All of intentional street has Christmas lights. The fountain has lights added and tower gardens has these giant candy canes where they installed all the green boxes and footers recently. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

We left around noon. Mystic line looked to be at least 35 minutes as we heeded to the exit of the park to leave. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Kings Island 2017 Discussion Thread
At smokehouse, they opened at 11. Also, noticed across from the picnic groove what I think is a new cell phone tower. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I was in the same place at the start of the season, but smokehouse (and the possibility of a second smokehouse) is going to drive me to add another family member next year. I'm a believer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It's supposed to open at 11 when soak opens for the general public... But I've never seen the doors open before 11:15... And usually with a short line waiting for the doors to open. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

If they do put in a smokehouse (which would be awesome), I do hope that they keep it gluten free as Coney potato works is the only dedicated gluten free option in the park. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

If by "this" you mean the new app actually working to show wait times... Then I agree, I've never seen it. [emoji23] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
