CINCINNATI, Ohio — Coney Island Park announced Thursday it will be kicking off the summer season Monday, June 7 after having to delay its opening.
The park was initially going to open for the summer May 29, but park officials had to postpone due to a water main break.
“Coney Island is excited to welcome guests for a 2021 season filled with new attractions and family favorites. We thank everyone for their patience as we worked to ensure a safe and top-notch experience in the Sunlite Water Adventure Area,” said Rob Schutter, president of Coney Island Park.
The new attractions are the Challenge Zone, which features more than 150 feet of obstacles, monkey bars, balance beans, the largest pool obstacle course in the nation and Action Alley, which will have a large infatable jump pad, arts and crafts, and a giant basketball Connect 4 game.
Last year, the park also had to delay its opening to later in the summer instead of its planned reopening date of May 29, 2020, because of the coronavirus pandemic.
Park officials said they will honor guests’ tickets on any date if they were reserved for the days the park was closed.
Many COVID-19 protocols will still be in place. Guests must remain 6 feet away from each other at all times. The park said it will follow state guidelines on face coverings. You can read the full guidelines here.
