Knott’s Berry Farm Soak City water park opening May 29

Orange County, Calif.’s largest water park, Knott’s Soak City, will reopen for the 2021 season with limited capacity and reservation requirements.

The separately-gated 15-acre water adventure park adjacent to Knott’s Berry Farm theme park in Buena Park will reopen to Gold and Platinum Season Passholders for a special preview on May 22-23, 2021, with plans to reopen to the public on select dates from May 29 through Sept. 12.

Knott’s Soak City offers 23 speed, tube, and body slides, including Shore Break featuring six different waterslide experiences and The Wedge, a thrilling family raft ride; the 750,000-gallon Tidal Wave Bay wave pool; a one-third-mile Sunset River — one of the longest lazy rivers in the country; and the three-story Beach House, featuring 200 water guns, nozzles, sprayers, and other interactive surprises.

Guests can also enjoy new additions to the food lineup like a poke bowl and chicken taco sandwiches.

Capacity will be limited each day to manage physical distancing. Ticket sales and reservations will be available starting May 10, 2021, at 10:00 a.m. PT.

Guest health and safety are top priorities at Knott’s Soak City Waterpark, and the park will follow state, county, and local health guidelines.
