Opening Day at Kennywood is a little over a week away. The 127-year-old amusement park will open on April 12 and remain open until early 2026. That’s the West Mifflin park’s longest season ever. There’s an all-new Kennywood Junction themed area modeled after a small steel town neighborhood. There’s Tuft’s a 6-foot rabbit character, a new celebration room that people can rent out for special events, a retail store and more focused on an “Eggcellent” Celebration. Plus, General Manager Ricky Spicuzza says the Steel Curtain will re-open again sometime this year. There are also other surprises planned that officials weren’t quite ready to announce. There are some new food options on various menus, but one thing won’t change. Even though Kennywood has a new owner, there will always be Kennywood fries.
