Cedar Point question?

Question

I'm going to cedar Point on October 18th ( I all ready checked, and yes, its open on that day) and I was wondering if it might be packed, like long lines for the coasters. And also I'm going to Kings Island on the 17th and I was wondering if that would be packed too.

Answer 1

well I have been to cedar point and when I went it was packed and there was alot of people there and it was hot but the lines go fast and about kings Isalnd I wouldn't know if it was crowed there because I never been there before

Answer 2

Saturdays in October are packed since it is the Halloweekends celebration. If you are staying in a CP hotel, you can get in the park at 9:00 and ride a few of the rides. We always do the back of the park first in the morning, the front is busiest then. The Fright Zone is a must when you go in October!

I have not been to King Island in the fall, but since they are only open that day from 7PM-1AM it may be mostly pass holders, that is not a long time to visit when you are paying for a ticket, so it may not be too bad.

Just FYI...CP is not open during the week after Labor Day, just Friday night, Sat & Sun. (per above response!)

Answer 3

It is always hard to determine if Cedar Point will be busy because it depends if everyone else had the same idea as you to go that day as well.  If there is a chance the weather may questionable, attendance is lower, but because you are going during Halloweekends, I would expect large crowds, comparable to the crowds during the summer.  I work in Sandusky along Route 250 (one of the main routes into Sandusky) and during October, a trip into town that would normally take 5 minutes takes anywhere between 15-30 minutes.  It is always fun to see all of the license plates from other states and Canada while I wish tourist season was over and try to get to the back road to avoid the stopped traffic on 250, but I still have to wait at least 15 minutes to get to that road.  So based on the traffic that I saw last October, I would expect a ton of people at Cedar Point!

Answer 4

it all depends on the day and the weather, and what all goes on that day. if  it has any conventions too.  

Answer 5

Yes it will be a little filled because it is a saturday. Cedar point suggests that you go on Sundays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, when attendance is lowest.
