Peter Pan Weekend at Playland

J. M. Barrie's little boy who never grew up is the celebration this weekend. Come enjoy Tinker Bell, Captain Hook, the Lost Boys and all the magic moments of this children's classic. Anyone in a Peter Pan character costume wins an instant prize.

The special events of "Peter Pan Weekend" are in addition to all of Playland's regular attractions. Playland-Not-at-the-Beach is a nonprofit Museum of Fun. Designed and built entirely by volunteers, the 20+ interactive exhibits celebrate the magic and history of America's bygone amusements -- circuses, carnivals, magic, side shows, penny arcades, amusement devices, pinball arcades, haunted houses, and beautiful art everywhere. Our goal is to educate newer generations about the bygone days and allow those who remember Whitney's Playland and the Sutro Baths the opportunity to recapture the glorious sights and sounds of that marvelous era.
Guests pay one low price to enter and can play all day: $10 for children and seniors, and $15 for general admission. Open 10:00am-5:00pm.
