Reviews

I have been there with my children and I was there for Chicken Fight with my adult daughter. The 21 + event was a lot of fun in that state fair/Carnival like atmosphere without underage people there. Be prepared to go cashless as they take card only transactions. It makes sense given their proximity to downtown Denver that the rumor is they're going to be moving that whole operation soon so get and and enjoy it before it's gone.

We are visiting as a sister park attendee from Washington. Remember if you have a season pass, you can travel to a sister park too free. I liked the park overall. It felt like a mini Six Flags. If I came here often, the souvenir beer glass would be a steal. Food wasn't too badly priced especially if you share chicken tenders. The rides were pretty fun and had plenty of nostalgia for rides in my past. Water park also had some fun parts. Most employees were friendly except for our friend in the picture who scolded us for using the "fast lane" even though nobody was in line at the Kaleidoscope. He even hit the bar at my knee because he was being negligent. Overall, solid day with most of the rides open. Lightning was the worst part.

We enjoyed Elitches this season. For the most part we had good experiences. I definitely think the season pass is the way to go. You will save a lot of money on parking on top of being able to bring friends, plus you get a discount on nearly everything in the park. Fright Fest and Luminova were a lot of fun. It's cool to be able to see the park transform. The food and drinks are really expensive and not the best. The pizza place near the entrance is usually less busy and a little quieter than the main food court. I would recommend bringing your own water bottle to refill. There's a water fountain outside the bathrooms by the main entrance. If you have never been and are on the fence, I think it is a memorable experience and a good way to spend time with family and friends.
