Knott’s Seasons of Fun + Giveaway

By Erin

*This is a sponsored post for Knott’s Season of Fun.*

A lifelong fan of Knott’s Berry Farm, I have always loved Snoopy and the gang for as long as I can remember. Here I am with my sister (I’m the one in the pink and blue on the right) as a child spending some time with our beloved Snoopy and just in time for the holidays we have an amazing giveaway from one of our favorite partners! Knott’s Berry Farm is perfect for a day out of fun with friends and family. A season pass to Knott’s Berry Farm is the best way to enjoy every season of fun that Knott’s has to offer. From Merry Farm in the winter to the Boysenberry Festival in the spring, to summer time at Soak City and Ghost Town Alive, and Scary Farm and Spooky Farm in the fall, no matter the season, there’s tons of fun and food to enjoy at Knott’s Berry Farm year round and a season pass the best way to experience it all!

Merry Farm

Every winter, Knott’s Berry Farm celebrates the merriest of seasons as the park wondrously transforms into Knott’s Merry Farm, a Christmas celebration for all ages. Spend the most wonderful time of the year with your family and friends  enjoying thrilling attractions, live entertainment, a Christmas crafts fair, festive food, lavish holiday decorations, and nightly snow in Ghost Town. The Christmas celebration begins this year on November 17 and continues through January 7. One of my most favorite seasons at Knott’s to get into the holiday spirit!

New Years

Ring in the new year at Knott’s and enjoy special live entertainment, dancing and midnight fireworks. Of course don’t forget to enjoy lots of tasty food and drink to ring in the new year too! Cheers! 😉
