Most rides and attractions remain open during rain. Some attractions will close when inclement weather prohibits their safe operation, but will reopen as soon as it is safe to do so. Please enjoy a show, meal or shopping until such weather passes. Admission tickets are non-refundable. We strongly recommend checking local weather conditions prior to planning your visit.
Weather Guarantee: If the majority of major rides experience a weather delay for 90 consecutive minutes due to inclement weather, a guest’s original ticket will be reactivated for a future visit in the same operating season. This policy applies only to redeemed park admission products.
No outside food, beverages or coolers are allowed in the park. Exceptions are made for guests with special dietary needs to include food allergies, baby food and formula. Guests with special dietary needs should stop at Guest Services located at the Main Gate when they arrive at the park.
