04 · The parks

What each one is.

Hersheypark

Hersheypark in Hershey, Pennsylvania was founded in 1906 as a leisure park for Milton Hershey's chocolate factory workers and has grown into one of the best coaster parks in the United States. It runs more than a dozen roller coasters: Skyrush and the racing wooden Lightning Racer, the launched Storm Runner and Fahrenheit, the classic Comet, the newer Candymonium and Wildcat's Revenge, and the Great Bear inverted coaster. The Boardwalk water park is included with admission.

The park is busiest on summer weekends and during Hersheypark in the Dark in October, and because it closes several rides early on some days, the schedule matters as much as the crowds. Check the live wait times before you go and use the crowd calendar to find a weekday when the big coasters run with short queues.

Peppa Pig Theme Park Florida

Peppa Pig Theme Park Florida opened in 2022 next to LEGOLAND Florida in Winter Haven. It's the first standalone Peppa Pig theme park in the world and is aimed squarely at preschoolers - all rides have low or no height restrictions, and Peppa, George and family appear throughout the day. Highlights include Daddy Pig's Roller Coaster, Mr. Bull's High Striker, and Peppa's Pedal Bike Tour.

Because the park is small and preschool-focused, queue times stay manageable outside peak Florida school breaks. Spring break and Christmas week push waits up noticeably. Check live wait times before queueing and use our crowd calendar to pick a quieter weekday if you can - midweek mornings feel almost empty.
