Things to Do at Hersheypark in the Fall

Summer has ended and fall is officially here. The leaves are changing, pumpkin has taken over everything, and we are all gearing up for Halloween shenanigans. Did you know Hersheypark is open after Summer? The Boardwalk maybe closed but there is still a lot of things to do at Hersheypark in the fall.

Things to Do at Hersheypark in the Fall

Just because Summer has ended doesn't mean the sweet fun of Hersheypark is closed until next year. With Hersheypark in the Dark, Hersheypark Christmas Candylane, and ZooAmerica there is always something to do and see. ZooAmerica is actually open all year while Halloween and Christmas feature their own special events.

Hersheypark in the Dark

Hersheypark in the Dark is a fun seasonal event that includes rides, trick-or-treating, festive fall food, ZooAmerica animal fun, and more.

When is Hersheypark in the Dark? Hersheypark in the Dark kicks off October 18, 2019 for 3 spooky-fun filled weekends.

What rides are open during Hersheypark in the Dark? Don't worry all 13 coasters are waiting for you to enjoy. I love that the temps will be cooler so waiting for rides won't make me so sweaty! Exclusively during Hersheypark In The Dark, experience lights-out rides on Laff Trakk, Wildcat, Comet, and Lightning Racer.

Also during Hersheypark in the Dark is the Character Glow Dance Party at Midway America, harvest menus featuring special offerings from the Spring Creek Smokehouse and Dietz & Watson Country Grill restaurants unique to each weekend. For adults, check out the fall beer and cider flights in the Yuengling 1829 Patio & Pavilion. Over at ZooAmerica, which is always included with your admission into Hersheypark, grab a flashlight for a nighttime tour to see all the creatures of the night!

Okay, it's Hersheypark and Halloween, what about the candy? It isn't called the Sweetest Place on Earth for nothing. Begin your trick-or-treating at Hershey's Chocolate World, inside you will find 3 candy stops at the Spider Web, Haunted Trees, and Bat Cave. Next head into Hersheypark for 9 stops beginning at Fahrenheit and winding all the way to Midway Tent near Laff Trakk. Finally, end the night at ZooAmerica, grabbing your last bit of goodies and saying hi to animal friends.
