California’s Original Theme Park
Knott’s Berry Farm is recognized as California’s first theme park, originally named for its beginnings as a farm and nursery owned by the Knott family. Over time, rides and attractions were added, and berry production ceased. Today, Knott’s Berry Farm boasts a wide array of attractions catering to both thrill-seekers and families. These attractions are spread across the park’s uniquely themed areas, designed to immerse you in distinct atmospheres. With its exciting experiences and lower admission prices, Knott’s Berry Farm stands as an appealing destination.
