Kings Dominion has officially lifted the embargo on details for the Grand Carnivale! Read more about this BRAND NEW event below! The link will be at the bottom of this post!
Here are the highlights from what has been released in the blog post.
1) The King of Carnivale will be welcoming everyone at 5pm each night. Anyone smell a Mardi Gras version of The Overlord’s Resurrection?
2) Passports will be given to all guests and can be found at the front of the park or at each country. This sounds similar to the WinterFest experience booklets!
3) Each country will have a stage, and there will be performances exclusive to that country. They will also have activities for kids and adults alike! Be sure to learn more about the cultures from the ambassadors and characters!
4) There will be something called the Adventure Club. This is an elite group, and while details aren’t given just yet, all you have to do is say that country’s native greeting to begin!
5) Regarding food, KD is selling Tasting Cards! You can taste up to six different dishes with one card, which I assume includes all five countries (Italy, France, Germany, China, and India) and the Finale booth under the Eiffel Tower!
6) There will be light-up souvenir cups for sale! You can also choose to fill those cups with either a kid friendly drink or one with the alcohol. Either way, sounds like a fun time!
7) The article lays out the parade route: it will start at Twisted Timbers, go through Candy Apple Grove, go through Planet Snoopy, and then stop under the Eiffel Tower! There will be nine floats, and each one will show off one country! I’m most excited for the Jules Verne Airship!
8) The fact that the park is saying there will be “hundreds” of performers deserves its own hype! Those are numbers we usually only see at Haunt!
9) Get your hands ready... LOTS of beads will be thrown out... just remember that this is a family event. Please. With an alcoholic cherry on top (if those exist!).
10) The night will end with a GIANT street party! Dancing, food, exclusive shows, and even some surprises will be in store!
WOWOWOWOW! This sounds like it’s gonna definitely be worth the hype! Get ready! The party begins in 12 days!
EDIT: Combining two posts!
This brand-new immersive summertime event is sure to WOW, Dazzle and delight as guests celebrate international cultures.
