Description

from Kennywood

Featuring over 40 rides and attractions, Kennywood is Pittsburgh’s premier destination for family fun and entertainment! Open since 1898 and one of only two amusement parks designated as a National Historic Landmark, Kennywood offers an unmatched mix of modern thrills and fun classic rides. There are eight roller coasters, a 12-ride Kiddieland, and areas themed to Thomas & Friends™ and the Pittsburgh Steelers, highlighted by the record-setting Steel Curtain, and its famous Potato Patch fries!

Founded as a trolley park in 1898 and celebrated 125 seasons in 2023, the Kennywood experience extends beyond summer with popular Halloween and Holiday events, including Fright Night and Phantom Fall Fest, and Kennywood Holiday Lights featuring an abundance of holiday cheer.

Kennywood’s three coasters from the 1920s join attractions like Noah’s Ark and Kangaroo as rarities that cannot be found anywhere else. The Jack Rabbit, a wooden out-and-back roller coaster, is one of the oldest operating coasters in the world. Alongside the classics, thrill-seekers can enjoy modern roller coasters like Phantom's Revenge, Exterminator, Sky Rocket, and, of course, the park's biggest thriller—The Steel Curtain.

Great for families, Kiddieland offers pint-sized thrills like the Lil' Phantom roller coaster and the Whippersnapper, along with more gentle rides, offering something for everyone.
