As a lifelong fan of amusement and theme parks, I can tell you that starting August 17, Holiday World & Splashin’ Safari in Santa Claus, Indiana is kicking off something truly special for families with young children. Their “Kids World” event, running every weekend through September 14, promises to be a blast for kids and parents alike.
Imagine a place where every corner of the park is tailored just for kids—Holiday World is making that a reality with “Kids World.” They’ve added “Fun Zones” that are packed with activities, kid-friendly food, and entertainment that will make your little ones light up with excitement. And trust me, the new food offerings are just as delightful for the adults. Funnel Cake Flights, Ice Cream Nachos, and Mini M&M Brownies? Yes, please!

As you stroll through the park, you’ll encounter magicians, jugglers, and balloon artists ready to wow the kids. There’s also a scavenger hunt, a bubble zone, and a percussion zone where kids can bang on drums and make some joyful noise. It’s the kind of place where memories are made—where the magic of childhood really comes to life.
Holiday World is even sweetening the deal with special food promotions during “Kids World,” featuring creative treats like Wacky Worm Fudge, Unicorn Flurries, and Mermaid Sundaes that are sure to become instant favorites.

And of course, you can’t miss the rides. Some of the best wooden roller coasters in the world—The Voyage, The Raven, and The Legend—will be open, along with the thrilling Thunderbird wing coaster. The park’s newest addition, the Good Gravy! family boomerang coaster is also a must-ride, especially if you’ve got a little thrill-seeker in tow.
Conveniently located near several major cities, Holiday World & Splashin’ Safari is an easy day trip or weekend getaway. Whether you’re coming from Louisville, Lexington, Indianapolis, Cincinnati, Nashville, St. Louis, or Columbus, this is one event you won’t want to miss.
