(West Mifflin, PA) Kennywood will be opening for the 2026 season this weekend. The park will open at 11 a.m. tomorrow and will celebrate major milestones for two of the park’s iconic rides. The Phantom’s Revenge roller coaster turns 25 years old and the Whip turns 100 years old this year. The loading platform of the Phantom’s Revenge has had most of its decking replaced along with new automatic gates, new signage, and upgraded fencing and its cars will feature new logos this season marking the 25 years of “legendary thrills” the coaster has provided. The Whip was manufactured in New York and is the last remaining 16-car model of its kind in the United States.
