Kennywood and Sandcastle will open to season passholders this weekend.

A spokesman announced Wednesday the opening of the two local attractions, which was delayed twice due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Season passholders may visit the parks Friday (July 10) while the general public may begin visiting on Monday (July 13). Reservations are required and the capacity of each park is being strictly limited.

“We believe strongly in the plan developed by our teams at Kennywood and Sandcastle to best protect the health and safety of all those visiting and working at our parks,” the spokesman said. “We look forward to providing the clean, safe and fun experience we have been proud to offer since 1898.”

For details on changes at Kennywood this year, read our June 30 story, “Kennywood, Other Attractions Reopening.”
