Holiday World 2024 Platinum Season Passholder Preview Day

The 2024 Season at Holiday World kicked off on May 4th for all Platinum Season Passholders, and gosh was it an amazing day! Yes it was a little muggy out and you for sure could not skip out on the sunscreen that day, which btw Holiday World offers Free Sunscreen as well throughout the Parks, but besides that the day couldn't have been better! 

The day began by waiting near The Raven's exit ramp for the Rope Drop, which I had never been able to experience this before at Holiday World, so that was exciting! Right at 10am the Security Guard dropped the rope and everyone was off like the Horses racing in the Kentucky Derby that evening. Where might you ask was everyone in such a hurry to get to....Well Good Gravy! of course!!! My review of Good Gravy! will be posted soon on the Blog, please stay tuned.


I will say the addition of Good Gravy! and Stuffing Springs really makes the Thanksgiving section of the Park a place that you could stay in all day and just enjoy everything going on around you. Being in Stuffing Springs you see so many of the other Thanksgiving attractions, I love that! 

Being a Platinum Season Passholder is the best Season Pass a Guest could have at Holiday World. The Platinum Season Pass day always brings in light crowds so you know what that means, little to no wait on the Rollercoasters, and flat rides as well. Getting to visit the Park on a less crowded day makes the experience so much better in my opinion. 

You also get to explore the Park and enjoy all the scenery, and enjoy the sounds of all the Guests enjoying the Coasters and rides throughout the dry Park, Splashin' Safari is not open during Platinum Season Pass preview day, but Frightful Falls is! 

Most of my day involved riding the Coasters over and over and the other half was well just taking in Good Gravy! and Stuffing Springs to be honest. The Park did add in a new Coffee Shop called The Perky Turkey where the Dip n Dots used to be across from Plymouth Rock Cafe. I have yet to try any of the new beverages, but do plan to do so on my next visit!


 Some other small little changes that I noticed as I walked around were some new banner designs for the Halloween & 4th of July sections of the Park. I really love these new designs! 


After a few more rides on The Voyage and Thunderbird I decided to head over to The Legend and The raven and call it a day, since it was such a humid day, it wore me out to be honest! I did decide to purchase a All Season Photo Pass and have included some of my ride photos that I have collected thus far this Season below. 


The entire Staff at the Park was so Friendly as well on Platinum Season Passholder Day! Thank you for another awesome Memory Making Day at the Park Holiday World! Oh, so one thing that Holiday World does is give all the Platinum Passholders a special gift, a collectors item you could say, this years was a 2024 Platinum Passholder Magnet with the Good Gravy! gravy boat spilling out Gravy! This is why I love Holiday World, they always take care of their guests every year and it means the world to me!

Image
  On June 29th, 2024 Kentucky Kingdom hosted participants during their first-ever Floral Frenzy 5K Run during their New Petal Palooza Event in Louisville, KY. This "Color Run" was so much fun! This one-of-a-kind event allowed participants to run throughout the Park as well as even outside the Park while being doused with colorful powders at different locations during he route. Below shows a map of the routes that participants could take. One being only 1.5 Miles (Kid's Fun Run), and the other being 3.1 Miles (Floral Frenzy 5K).  A decent amount of participants showed up to take on this new 5K that Kentucky Kingdom hosted. This was a great event for people of all ages as well. Everyone who participated seemed to really enjoy this special event. Participants were given light refreshments before and after the race, as well as a Floral Frenzy 5K T-Shirt and Completion Medal. We were also led in a stretch session before we took off and while we waited for the race to start the...

Kentucky Kingdom Skyline Changing - T3 Being Dismantled Before 2024 Season Opening

Image
The view for guests driving past Kentucky Kingdom on Interstate 264 will look very different this Season! Why you may ask??? Work has finally begun to dismantle the T3 Suspended Roller Coaster! T3 closed at the end of the 2022 Season and has stood untouched until just recently. As seen in the photos below, a crew started to dismantle the Coaster on April 1st, 2024.  (Photo Credit: @Coaster Chit Chat on Facebook) T3(T2) opened on April 8th, 1995. It is so crazy how close the dates are from being opened to the public to being torn down. T3 will be missed by some and some are just happy to see it go, which will allow the Herschend Group to bring more new and exciting things to the Park in the near future!  Below are some photos from Facebook Users that have bared witness to the Coaster being dismantled and placed in a field near the Park. Speculation is that T3 has been sold to a unknown buyer and this is why the Coaster has not been destroyed.  (Photo Credit: @Jenni Hawkins...
