DOSWELL, Va., Aug. 20, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- The world's
largest PEANUTS™-themed children's area is growing
again! Kings Dominion announced plans to expand the Planet
Snoopy area of the park in 2017. Additions include three family
rides, a new event space, and upgraded food and beverage locations.
Plus, children three to five years of age can experience all that
Planet Snoopy has to offer for FREE with the brand new
Kings Dominion Pre-K Pass.
Brand new family-friendly rides include:
- Kite Eating Tree – Charlie
Brown's kite is stuck in a tree again, can you help get it
down? On this family ride, guests will be propelled to the top of
the tower and bounce down to the platform as they experience
sensations of weightlessness.
- Sally's Sea Plane – Join Sally as she soars through the
air high above the sea! Kids and their parents are in store for an
adventure with a trip on Sally's airplane. Take a trip
round-and-round on this giant plane as it rotates and rises into
the air.
- Peanuts™500 – Pick your car and rev up the engine with
the Peanuts™ crew on this fun car ride that is the perfect size for
your little racers. Start your engines and hit the track in race
cars designed for parents and children to ride together as they
move in a circle and whip around the corner on a closed track.
This latest expansion to the 14-acre kid's area brings the total
number of rides in Planet Snoopy to 20. All of the rides are
designed for families to experience together.
