Michigan’s Adventure Amusement Attractions not Opening in 2020; WildWater Adventure to Open July 16

If you were excited for the new Camp Snoopy at Michigan’s Adventure to open this season, you’ll unfortunately have to keep waiting. Michigan’s Adventure announced today that the amusement park attractions at the Muskegon park will not be open this summer. However, there is some good news, as WildWater Adventure, the park’s in-park water park, will be opening for pass holders starting July 16.

“The safety of our guests and associates has always been and will always be our top priority, and we want them to feel confident that they can enjoy our water park in a manner that’s both safe and fun,” said Camille Jourden-Mark, Vice President and General Manager at Michigan’s Adventure and WildWater Adventure. “Our new health and safety protocols align with CDC recommendations and have been shaped by information from company and industry health and safety experts, along with our state and local government officials. We are ready to welcome our guests back for some family fun.”

Pools are included in the current government re-opening phase, but amusement parks are not, which is why the dry park will remain closed.

Video and detailed information has been added on Michigan’s Adventure’s website and mobile app that outlines the new protocols to ensure a safe and clean environment, which include:

  • A new online reservation system; each guest is required to have a reservation prior to their visit to enable capacity management;
  • A requirement to complete a pre-visit health screening declaration 24 hours prior to admission;
  • A touchless temperature screening prior to entering the facility for both guests and associates;
  • Requirements for all guests, associates and vendors to wear masks as directed by the protocols
  • Social distancing markers throughout the entrance and waterpark, including water attraction queue lines;
  • Limited guest/associate contact;
  • Enhanced cleaning procedures, including additional deep cleaning and sanitization of restrooms, dining facilities and other busy areas;
  • Additional hand sanitizing stations; and
  • Capacity management throughout the park.

The park will initially open to Season Passholders exclusively, with limited capacity and operating hours.  At this time, planned operating days are scheduled for Thursdays-Sundays.

Michigan’s Adventure will be sending emails to Passholders, inviting them to begin making reservations. As is the case with all Cedar Fair parks, 2020 season passes have been extended through the 2021 season.
