Rollercoaster & Amusement Park Weekend at Playland-Not-at-the-Beach

Our annual toast to the greatest rollercoasters in the world. Via film you can take a front row seat on the longest, tallest, fastest, scariest coasters on each continent. A special celebration of the members of ACE (American Coaster Enthusiasts) on Saturday, and on Sunday we celebrate Coney Island, Riverview, Palisades Park, Kennywood and a wide range of other parks around the country as we show the history of the development of amusement parks in America. Whitney's Playland, Venice Beach, Pacific Ocean Park, the Long Beach Pike and, of course, Disneyland will also be featured. PNATB’s newest attraction, Rollercoaster Rampage, will be open.  Sit in an authentic coaster car from the Santa Cruz Beach and Boardwalk and take POV (Point of View) rides on many of the premier coasters of today and yesterday.   

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.
