Breakdowns cluster at 6pm, with 113 of the 255 closures that started before the park's final hour beginning then - so the ride you most want is safest earlier in the day, not saved for last. A further 312 rides simply were not running at opening, which is a late start rather than a fault and is counted separately. The other 5 closures start in the 9pm hour, when the park is shutting - those are rides finishing their day, not failing, so they are left out here.

Knoebels downtime day by day

Share of ride hours lost

31 Aug to 25 Oct

31 Aug25 Oct

The worst day in this window was 31 Aug, when 76% of the park's ride hours were lost and 60 of 60 rides went down at some point.

Uptime is the share of the park's own operating minutes a ride was running, recorded every few minutes and averaged over 20 days. A closure counts as one breakdown when it lasts ten minutes or more; shorter stops still count towards time lost, because a two-minute reset is not a fault. Touching closure windows are merged into one closure - a ride shut all day arrives from the feed as that day sliced into the sampling interval, and counting each slice would report one bad day as a hundred breakdowns.

Which rides are closed at Knoebels today?

How is uptime measured?

Each ride's open or closed status is recorded every few minutes through the park's own operating hours. Uptime is the share of those minutes the ride was running. A closure counts as one breakdown when it lasts ten minutes or more; shorter stops still count towards time lost, because a two-minute reset is not a fault.

Does weather affect Knoebels reliability?

Yes. Water rides close in heavy rain, and exposed coasters close in lightning, high winds or very cold temperatures. These figures reflect actual operations including weather closures, which is why uptime varies through the year.
