It was a cold and rainy start to the 2022 season at Kennywood Park, but when has that ever stopped me from going? After all the announcements made earlier this year, many have been eagerly waiting for Kennywood's opening day to see the results of the new investments for themselves. What has been done so far, and was it worth the hype? Here's everything I could find that is new at Kennywood for 2022 on opening day!

A few more updates from my most recent visit on April 23: - Lil Phantom has been painted purple (forgot to mention that in this video) - Kandy Kaleidoscope has a new sign on the building, and it's massive! - Steel Curtain reopened on Saturday, but went down again on Sunday (no surprise there) - The Pepsi refill stations are having some problems; I could not find one that had not frozen on the scanning screen for the entire day. - Some new merch has started appearing in the gift shops, but not a lot of it. Here's hoping for some new Phantom merch. - Skycoaster has been confirmed to be closed for the entirety of 2022. Removal imminent? - The Swing into Spring food offerings are surprisingly good. I recommend the fish & chips and especially the quesadillas.

For a second there I thought you said sky rocket instead of skycoaster and I got so sad because I love sky rocket, but I really wouldn't care if the skycoaster got removed because they are expensive and you can find them everywhere else

@@PriceWordplay at my home park Waldameer, we've been cashless since 2012 and I think it's an excellent system there and pretty simple to use. I don't get why most people are complaining when most parks just switched to a similar system and in a world where card is the preferred method of transaction. Really goes to show Waldameer was way ahead of it's time and it's about time most parks like kennywood switch over.

I went to the park on Saturday and was like "wait a minute...they redid a lot of stuff here" and it made me so excited because I've been literally going to Kennywood probably every single summer since I was like 5 (so a total of 22 years) and it just looked so nice. Even really minute changes/details like mowing the grass near the Turtle and the Thunderbolt, painting the fencing black, or even installing photos of Kennywood in the past near the Jack Rabbit just made it look a lot more vibrant and modern. I personally think they did a really great job with these changes (definitely going to miss the Paratrooper and the Bayern Kurve though that's for sure) *I would also like to know what's going on with Raging Rapids. It wasn't filled when I went to other day which made me kind of sad because that's also one of my favorites

I've been waiting for this video!!!! You did a great job wrapping up all that was new to the park. Only things that I didn't catch in here was purple Lil' Phantom, the new Doc Popcorn stand that replaced the Kennyville lemonade stand, and the reconfigured Potato Patch queue (you get food first and then pay). Another very minor thing that I liked seeing was that the 2nd vortex tunnel on Noah's Ark actually got a new wallpaper this year and it looks great! But other than that, you covered basically every major park change. I'm just as excited to see what the future brings for this new chapter in the park's history!

Here is the biggest mystery. After all this money pumped into the park this year and lots of construction, why was the Volcano facade not removed? Is there another ride coming in there named volcano? Its weird that everything from these old rides were removed except this facade and rock formation with a sign "Volcano." What is your guess?
@RampagingRex
@RampagingRex 2 жыл бұрын
I remember hearing rumors late last year that a Zamperla Air Race was supposed to go in Volcano's old spot, so maybe that got delayed. That could explain why no work has been done yet on that area.

Skycoaster is most likely being removed. The park hasn't confirmed it yet, but they haven't run it in a couple years, all signage mentioning it has been removed, and the park has also removed the cables and lift motors attached to the tower as well.
