Fun Facts

Hot Dogs Heights

Nearly 200,000 hot dogs are eaten at Dorney Park every year. At an average length of 7.5 inches, you could climb this 125,000 feet of franks just slightly higher than the record altitude for a jet airplane of 123,520 feet. Brrrrrr! Now that is taking thrills to a new heights!

Funnel-Cake-Tummy-Ache

In one year Dorney Park sells roughly 73,000 funnel cakes. If you were to eat one funnel cake per minute, it would take over two months to eat them all! Talk about a tummy ache!

Best Seat in the House

There are 2,035 seats combined between rides and attractions at Dorney Park; that is enough seats to fill over 14 movie theaters! We're not even counting park benches! Come on over, have a seat!

Leaning Towers of Souvenir Bottles

Around 81,000 souvenir beverage bottles are sold in a year. If you were to stack each one on top of another you could reach the top of Steel Forces’ 200ft peak 405 times!

Fountain Soda Fuel

Dorney Park sells over 62,000 gallons of fountain soda per year. If that was gasoline, you could drive the 5,368 mile round trip from Dorney Park to Knott's Berry Farm amusement park in Buena Park, California nearly 266 times! Hello Vacation! 

French Fry Highway

About a quarter of a million pounds of french fries are crisped up for Dorney's guests every year. That's approximately 12.5 truck-trailers full of the starchy tuber cuts!

A Piece of Pizza Pi

157,920 slices of pizza from 19,740 16" pies annually means Dorney Park produces 7.83 miles of pizza crust a year! If the park made roller coaster track out of two parallel rails of pizza crust, it would be 3.91 miles long, a bit more than the parks existing 3.19 miles of actual coaster track!
