Kings Dominion - Lacking in 2026
We’re in the park right now. I’ve been a patron at the park for 35 years. We now live outside VA but visit every summer when visiting our extended family and my kids (now late teens) have grown up coming here. It’s had its ups and downs and changes in ownership, but we’ve been here for two hours and this is the worst it’s ever been in recent memory. Maybe we were spoiled a few years ago when Cedar Fair started putting money into the parks, the shows were great, they seemed to really care. Now everything has been cut back after all of that progress. There are basically NO drink kiosks where they used to be or open stands to get drinks and it is so hot out. The bathrooms are atrocious, they took away things like the tables in the nice grove outside the Backlot coaster - my parents are 70 now and enjoy sitting there while we ride the attractions in the area. Twisted Timbers wouldn’t even let me put my tiny fanny pack in the free lockers - so I have to rent a giant one? It’s my favorite ride. There were so many good strides made and now it’s going in the opposite direction. It’s sad. I’m going to write to six Flags! Any other things you have noticed are lacking now?
