Kings Island is a 364-acre (147 ha) amusement park located 24 miles (39 km) northeast of Cincinnati in Mason, Ohio. Owned and operated by Cedar Fair, the park first opened in 1972 by the Taft Broadcasting Company. It was part of a larger effort to move and expand Coney Island, a popular resort destination along the banks of the Ohio River that was prone to frequent flooding. After more than $300 million in capital investments, the park features over 100 attractions including fourteen roller coasters and a 33-acre (13 ha) water park.
Early in its history, Kings Island has appeared in popular sitcoms and received widespread recognition for its record-breaking attractions and events. One of the park's most well-known attractions, The Racer, is often credited with reviving worldwide interest in roller coasters during the 1970s. Others, such as The Beast and Banshee, have set several world records, some of which remain standing. The largest investment in park history is Orion, a giga coaster opened in July 2020. The park has also suffered through times of negative publicity, particularly surrounding the early demise of roller coasters The Bat and Son of Beast.
Kings Island is divided into several themed sections and operates seasonally from early spring through the fall, partially reopening for Winterfest during the holiday season. In 2017, Kings Island was the second-most visited seasonal amusement park in the United States behind Cedar Point, with an estimated 3.47 million visitors. It was third overall for seasonal attendance in North America, which was led by Canada's Wonderland. In addition, Kings Island has won Golden Ticket Awards from Amusement Today for having the "Best Kids' Area" in the world for eighteen consecutive years (2001-2018) as well as “Best New Ride” in 2017 for Mystic Timbers.

Cincinnati Reds
I haven’t been to Kings Island in over a decade. It was so nice to get to “walk” through the park again.
Really? Our family goes there almost every week in the summer
@@Lovely_.Heav1 I go there when I finish school
@@DeMorce yea our family goes every year on our 2 months of summer break every week on a Saturday or Sunday and sometimes we will go to their water park then ride the train to the rides or play at the actual park n ride the trains to the water park it fun 🤩
I rode the Orion and it was scary!
I sure did enjoy the tour and the last time I was there was in 1976 and we stayed at the Best Western Hotel
I am going next 3 weeks from now
The best tours out there. Thanks for Kings Island! Amazing!! Thank you very much!!
Wish you would have narrated that the kids area was once Hanna Barbara Land. And maybe the names of some of the rides that were in that area, at that time.
Thanks so much for posting this! I was able to show a family member that hasn't been there in many, many years what it's like to walk through the park. I also missed last season for the first time since 2003 due to the pandemic. Thanks again!
Kings Island is one of the best Cedar Fair parks!
Agree!
THEE best cedar fair park
Grew up here, love this place. So many memories. Haven't been able to make it this year so thanks for this. Keep up the good work ✌
Great video. Love KI. Can't wait to go again on Season pass weekend soon
Well this is great because now people who have never been to KI can create it to 1:1 scale down to every detail, also using Google Earth. (I’ve been multiple times, just saying for people who haven’t)
Of the five Cedar Fair parks I've visited, this is my second favorite ahead of Kings Dominion (3rd), Knott's Berry Farm (4th) and Valleyfair (5th) but behind Cedar Point (1st).
My third favorite park I’ve been to.
Mid Take
One day I'm gonna go here when I'm in Ohio in the Spring time.
Man, Cedar Fair certainly know how to take great care of their parks, unlike Six Flags, they'll continue to lose!!!!
ever been to michigan’s adventure?
I live in ohio and have a gold pass for here

Too bad theres a huge empty hole there now. Cedar Fair has ruined this park. RIP Vortex. Ill always miss you. 1987-2019
Well Cedar Fair also brought in Diamondback, Banshee, Mystic Timbers, and Orion. All which could be considered better than Vortex
@@imbnz2424 orion just isnt my cup of tea.
@@pizzafroth1521 why? Its a B&M giga. Sure its not the best gigs, but its still gonna be better than an arrow looper
@@imbnz2424 idk honestly. All the hype for orion died for me because of Vortex's removal.
@@pizzafroth1521 I get it. Vortex probably had a lot of nostalgia for you
Cedar Point has a far better collection of rides. There isn’t even a Ferris wheel here!
