Canobie Lake Park Grand Opening April 28

By Canobie Lake Park

Canobie Lake Park’s gates swing wide open for the 110th season of family fun on Saturday, April 28, weather permitting. 

One-Day Sale

The Park’s Annual One-Day Sale will also be held on Opening Day when 2012 admission passes will be sold for the reduced price of just $25 each. This represents a savings of $8 off the regular season general admission price. The rain date for the sale will be Sunday, April 29. One-day sale purchases can only be made at the Park, and there is no limit on how many passes can be purchased at the sale price. Each pass is valid on any one day during Canobie’s 2012 season. 

UNTAMED Fun

Canobie Lake Park’s newest roller coaster, UNTAMED, opened to the delight of thrill seekers last June and has proven to be one of the most popular and successful additions in the Park’s history. The coaster features an initial, vertical climb of almost 72 feet into the air culminating in a breathtaking drop at a 97-degree angle. Riders are then taken through a series of scream-inducing loops, twists and barrel rolls. "Untamed has exceeded our wildest expectations," said Chris Nicoli, Canobie’s Marketing and Entertainment Manager. "The reaction among guests has been overwhelmingly positive." 

An Affordable Family Day 

Canobie Lake Park remains one of the area’s best values in family entertainment. The Park is a short gas-friendly trip from most points in New England, and parking is always free. A single, low admission price includes over 85 thrill rides, family and kid-friendly rides, attractions and scheduled shows as well as Castaway Island, Canobie’s water play park that opens Memorial Day Weekend. Visit the Park’s website for hours and full information about attractions and scheduled events.

The Canobie Classroom: Educational Programs

With a variety of educational programs and real-world physics demonstrations, Canobie becomes an interactive learning environment that provides teachers with some rather unique tools to reinforce a variety of math and science principles. With hands-on presentations like "Real Science," Canobie Lake Park provides student groups from all over New England with outings that are both fun and educational.
