Pro tips to help you make a pick

Stop at a height measurement station early in your visit so kids know exactly which rides they can enjoy—this helps avoid disappointment at ride entrances.

Use the official Kings Island app for real-time ride statuses, showtimes, and navigation—it’s a lifesaver for planning your route and avoiding unnecessary walks.

Consider renting a central locker for your group, especially if you plan to ride multiple coasters that require storing loose items.

Dining plans are available and can help manage food costs if you plan to eat multiple meals in the park—look for participating outlets marked on maps and signage.

If you or someone in your group has mobility challenges, wheelchairs and ECVs are available for rent near the entrance, and most paths are step-free.

Kings Island opened in 1972 and is operated by Cedar Fair, the same company behind other major US amusement parks like Cedar Point.

The park’s Eiffel Tower replica stands at one-third the height of the original in Paris and serves as a central landmark and observation deck.

Soak City, the on-site water park, is included with admission on operating days and was previously known as Boomerang Bay before being rebranded.
