I want your opinions on the best times to visit the park! I usually only go during Fright Fest and maybe one other day during the year. This year I have season passes again (have yet to use them) and recently was laid off which means I suddenly have some time on my hands. So back to my original question, what days or time of the month is the best to visit or worst to visit? I want to squeeze in the park and Hurricane Harbor at some point but I don't want to be inundated with crowds.
Does anyone have any thoughts on crowd levels for the upcoming 4 day weekend for July 4th?
Contemplating a drive to Great America this weekend(Saturday or Sunday). Interestingly they aren't including Saturday the 1st in with there July 4th promotions. They are also getting off of "Bring a friend free" week. Also had the thought that being its a 4 day weekend it may disperse the crowds over more days than normal so it might not be too bad. Any other thoughts?
Monday and Sunday will be best. I went Saturday of Labor Day weekend last year and it was packed, I'd say almost to late July level. 1 hour for Goliath via SRL (the ride itself had a full queue an hour before closing) and JLBFM had a near full queue almost all day as well.
Anyone done the "Bring a coke can, enter at 9:30 for certain rides" ERT in the past? How was it crowd-wise? Considering giving it a whack Monday morning, but if it's going to be excessively packed like CAD it obviously wouldn't be worth it...
