Knott's Berry Farm

Knott’s Berry Farm is a world-renowned theme park built from the humblest of beginnings nearly 100 years ago. Starting with a simple roadside berry stand, then a restaurant serving mouthwatering chicken dinners, Walter and Cordelia Knott attracted long lines of customers to their Buena Park farm.  To keep crowds entertained, the Knott family built an entire western-themed town that remains the heart of Knott’s Berry Farm today.  Anchored in its rich California history and charm, Knott’s Berry Farm now bursts with attractions and entertainment for all ages, including first-class roller coasters and thrill rides, elaborate stage shows, interactive entertainment, and family-friendly fun featuring Snoopy and the Peanuts Gang.

To complete the family resort, the Knott’s Soak City Waterpark and Knott’s Hotel are located within walking distance of the theme park. Plus, true to its roots, Knott’s continues to serve up delicious food creations that can only be found at Knott’s Berry Farm— California’s first theme park.

Knott’s Soak City Waterpark is a separately gated, 15-acre water park next to the Knott’s Berry Farm theme park. In 2017, Orange County’s largest water park expanded 2 acres to offer even more fun in the sun with seven new slides. The park now boasts a total of 22 speed, tube and body slides plus the 750,000-gallon Tidal Wave Bay wave pool; the one-third-mile long Sunset Lazy River; and the three-story Beach House, featuring 200 water guns, nozzles, sprayers and other interactive surprises. The water park also features Gremmie Lagoon, a hands-on water playground for younger kids and families. Open seasonally on select days from late May to early September.
