Knott’s Berry Farm is getting quite animated for the next few weeks as the Buena Park favorite brings back it’s annual Knott’s PEANUTS Celebration! Back for its second year in a row, the event brings the Peanuts to the forefront with character greets, entertainment, and more to get up close and personal with the lovable Peanuts characters.
MouseInfo was invited to check out the opening day and we present to you know a pictorial with all there is to explore during the 2019 Knott’s PEANUTS Celebration! ENJOY!
ENTERTAINMENT
NEW! Woodstock’s Bird’s-Eye View
The classic Sky Cabin attraction gets a new spiel at the beginning and end and a takeover on its exterior which has been turned into Woodstock’s nest. The layover doesn’t add much to the classic attraction but it still affords you views of Buena Park and the surrounding areas which includes views of Hollywood, Long Beach, and Anaheim.
The Music Goes Round and Round
The adorable show returns again this year offering a fun musical retrospective with Sally who gets help from Schroeder and Snoopy as she prepares for a report she has to do on the topic of music.
Woodstock’s Musical Festival
At nightfall, the stage will transform into a musical extravaganza featuring Indie band The Jelly of the Month Club. We didn’t get a chance to catch them this year but here’s a video of them lighting up the night at last year’s event!
