Kennywood Opening Weekend April 22 – 23 to Honor First Responders with Free Admission

Kennywood – Pittsburgh’s Thrill and Entertainment Destination – launches its season-long celebration of 125 years starting April 22 and 23 by honoring First Responders with free admission. All first responders, including Police, Fire, Dispatch, Corrections, EMTs, Military Personnel, and Healthcare Workers, will receive free admission for themselves and discounted admission for up to four (4) friends and family members at the gate with proof of valid identification. There is no better way to begin this momentous season than by celebrating the brave individuals in our community and showing our appreciation for their hard work and sacrifices.

Also starting with opening weekend, Kennywood kicks off the all-new 125th Celebration Weekends. Over the first five weekends of operation, April 22 through May 21, the park celebrates decades of thrills and innovation. This special event will pay tribute to the eras of the park’s past with entertainment, nostalgic photo opportunities, historical displays, commemorative giveaways, and specialty merchandise honoring the past 125 years.

The fun continues with a non-stop line-up of thrills with the biggest birthday party all season long. With the debut of the first ride of its kind in the U.S., Spinvasion, coming Memorial Day Weekend, plus an expanded Bites & Pints Food & Drink Festival, and much, much more – Kennywood’s 125th season cannot be missed.
