Kings Island to Open Camp Snoopy + New Family Coaster in 2024

A new expansion of the park's award winning children's section, Planet Snoopy, is coming to Kings Island in 2024. Named Camp Snoopy, the area will have a rustic feel and be located on the edge of the existing Snoopy themed area. Featuring an expansive play area and a brand new family roller coaster, Camp Snoopy is sure to keep kids busy for hours!

Camp Snoopy features two attractions: "Snoopy’s Soap Box Racers, a brand-new family roller coaster that races both forward and backward and Beagle Scout Acres, an area where kids can run, crawl, play or relax with the family in a shaded comfortable space." The above aerial shows how the new Camp Snoopy section will fit within Planet Snoopy. The new coaster will be located right next to the park's existing inverted family coaster, in between that and an old amphitheater that will contain Beagle Scout Acres - an active play area for kids.

Snoopy's Soap Box Racers is one of Vekoma's family boomerang roller coasters, which stands 74 feet tall and features 672 feet of track. The train is lifted up the first hill backward, then released to speed through the station, past a themed lookout tower, around an s-curve and up another spike. The train then falls backward through the layout and into the station once more.

Kings Island is well known for their amazing kids area and with this coaster are the self-pronounced "kids coaster capital of the world" with 5 different kid-oriented roller coasters. Camp Snoopy is planned to open at Kings Island in the spring of 2024.
