Switlik Property Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 Just looked at the parks scheduled hours for this Friday, May 2nd, their web site shows a 6pm close. Doesn't make sense to me. Does anyone know of there is a special event scheduled for Friday night ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoshi Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 They are closing at 6 because its going to be almost all school groups there who usually leave by 5 and it probably isn't worth it for them to be open for the few regular guests who will be there.

DANofNJ Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 That's very strange, I believe Dorney in PA is open till 10pm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

29yrswithaGApass Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 What now GADV is going to change hours weekly based on prior week attendance? Nothing has changed. Those were the published hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANofNJ Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 I miss the good old days and the midnight closings. those were the best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdc12192 Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 ^You get midnight closings on Fridays in October. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoshi Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 (edited) I'm looking forward to that, the first 2 Friday nights of Fright Fest usually have low crowds so they should be great nights to get a lot of rides in.

RC98 Posted May 2, 2014 Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 A midnight closing seems like it would be fun to be at- maybe if they're successful this year they can be done in the regular season too next year? It would be cool to stay in the park late on a summer night. Perhaps July 4 weekend maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiller Posted May 2, 2014 Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 With a closing time that early, you can leave Great Adventure when it closes and still make it to Dorney for a couple of hours. Although there is no reason to, I 'm just pointing out the time difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANofNJ Posted May 2, 2014 Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 im not talking about midnight closings for a few Fridays during fright fest. I remember midnight closings all summer in like july and aug in the 80's. it was every night. all lite up with the flar rides was great , and the park used to open at at 10 am. not this 10:30 crap nowadays. they really have cut down on the hours lately, compared to yrs ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
29yrswithaGApass Posted May 2, 2014 Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 ^ They "cut down the hours" over 30 years ago and not "lately". The last time the park stayed open until midnight on a daily basis was 1983. Closing at 10pm is nothing new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love Dorney Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
