Can you bring bottled water?
They will give you free water in the park if you ask.
Are there certain days when bring a friend tickets are good and can you use all or all six days at once?
Any day
Is bringing your kids good enough and why?
they have a section for kids so i recommend it
Can you park a trailer there?
During the day, not the day, the park has its own campgrounds, so if you're going to park, get a good deal, especially if it's low cost in a camper cabin.In addition, there are shuttles to and from the park every 15 minutes in the morning and evening, and every 30-45 minutes (12-7 or 20:00) during the day.

Kings Dominion Reviews
- Halloween Haunt was awesome. They actually had a lot of scary actors. No No Boo necklaces for those with small children or those who are easily frightened. This works well in feared areas. I'm going to try Christmas this month.
- Halloween Haunt 2021-- 20th Anniversary!! This was my first year and it was a fun experience! Couldn't take photos at attractions/mazes, so only photos of the shows were presented. Both were great and I would definitely recommend going! Happy Halloween!
- horror fest 2021 kings domination Tickets are purchased cheaper online, same as parking lot pass. I was drawing circles as there was no paper map since I switched to downloading the app. Because it was dark and they had made different journeys since I was last here. But it was a good time.
- I had a great time with my sister. I haven't been to an amusement park in over 10 years so the experience was great. The food was a little pricey but worth it and there are dining deals every 90 minutes that let you dine out. We made about eight trips in eight hours. The daunting 305 is a must.
- I had a great time with my sister. I haven't been to an amusement park in over 10 years so the experience was great. The food was a bit pricey but worth it and there are meal deals that make you eat out every 90 minutes. We made about eight trips in eight hours. The daunting 305 is a must.
- Parking was $20-25. Regular admission to enter the park was $73.99 for ages 3 and up and $60 military for Saturday. After entering the park, attractions and rides are subject to separate charges. I did the Halloween Haunt Attraction Flight Pass, which was $65 to skip the queue to get into 5 haunted houses, which was fun and a little scary for me. Bar mixed drink Hocus Pocus $14. Sprite soda from the vending machine is $4.25. Food from various vendors was "expensive" but tasted really good. The various shops visited were expensive but had cute Halloween items. I really enjoyed the different Halloween scenes and staff dressed in costumes throughout the park. $200 for my only Kings Dominion visit but I had fun.
- We went on a weekday and there was no queue. We were able to take as many rides as we wanted and many times over. The place was super clean and for less than $180.00 the four of us had a great day. Make sure you buy your tickets online (best deals) and print them with the parking pass if possible. It was a bit of a hassle for them to scan the tickets from my phone.
- I had a great day visiting Kings Dominion! The park is open! We went Sunday, June 13, 2021. I thought the park would be overcrowded, but it wasn't at all. We missed a couple of Coasters as some of the lines were quite long but we were able to re-board what we really wanted. So it turned out to be a good day. The processes on the rides were mostly smooth and the park is kept very clean by the staff. Also it was really easy to get in through the entrance door because they kept the line moving to keep people moving. The food lines were not that long. We queued for about 5 minutes to get food and it wasn't bad at all. Overall a great park and I will definitely visit again. It's an easy-to-find park on maps and just off Route 95 while driving. You can't miss it! If you haven't done it yet, I would definitely recommend making a trip there with your family.
