Cedar Point OPENING DAY 2019

  • A large crowd was already enjoying the rides and nice weather when I arrived around noon, but once the clouds and rain and gusty winds took over late in the day, the crowd quickly thinned. New restaurants this year are Hugo's Italian Kitchen (replacing Midway Market) and BackBeatQue (replacing Witches' Wheel.) The Cedars dorms have been demolished and monster trucks have temporarily been seen in the area -- Monster Jam wasn't open during my visit. Dinosaurs Alive is gone as well -- that area is being transformed into Forbidden Frontier on Adventure Island, opening soon. The Corkscrew trains got a sweet retro makeover, and Tilt-a-Whirl got repainted and renamed. Mine Ride and Magnum are celebrating their 50th and 30th anniversaries respectively, and there are new entrance signs for each. Oh yeah, there's a new outhouse along Frontier Trail that I highly recommend (thanks to Tilt-a-Whirl Anne for letting me know about that!) Filmed Saturday, May 11, 2019.

    I went to Cedar Point on Tuesday, May 21st. Temperature at 9am was 50-degrees. Because of the cold, smallest crowds I had ever seen in my adult life at CP. By 2pm, I rode all but two rides in the front cars completed without even running! BEST TIME EVER!!!!
