Celebrate each season in style.

 

Kennywood Park is open from April through December every year, offering visitors a chance to visit the Pittsburgh Amusement Park in each of the four seasons. Spring and summer bring the classic fun for all ages found only at Kennywood for 120 years. Fall brings a celebration of the harvest for children during Happy Hauntings and the terror of the undead during Phantom Fright Nights. Moving toward winter, Holiday Lights is the perfect event to celebrate the holidays with the entire family.
