Getting tired of seeing everything get closed. How about keep it open instead of disappointing everybody every damn day?! It wouldn’t be that hard to just keep it open
Only the Tidal Force is shutting down forever, not the park. .”However, the Pennsylvania vacation destination has not announced its exact reopening date for 2027.”
The original owner had great vision now corporate America is burying it. So Very Sad 😞
Hershey Park Is A Family Tradition. Look out folks the candy we all know and love might be next, along with the school. Let me guess they are going to build a data center there, right???
Just was coming here to say that its a ride the park is doing amazing! The ride wasnt even there 120 yrs or whatever the title says… some rides come and go its called a theme park! Parts costs etc its alot. HP Happy is about to head into their top season of Dark Nights which btw is a top 5 haunt in the country beating hhn for 5 yrs! Hhn hos etc has awarded it a peer award for future of haunts! They run 3 events at once.
Hershey could close, expensive waste. We were there Saturday and the only rides opened were roller coasters pretty much and a few kiddie rides, water park was open. $40 parking is greed putting that cost on your customers who already pay hefty to enter the park.
WHAT first Hersheys closes all the United States Chocolate manufacturing plants moving them to Mexico! Now they ate closing the theme park. Congratulations Hershey for bankrupting this Pennsylvania County of lost jobs and tax revenue. Next they will close the store too right. I blame every President of the United States for not having a country like Canada and all the other countries example: Canada who has a food country law that says if its not made here then it can not be sold here. The U.K. is ghe same if it is not made in the U.K. then the country and Ireland do not sell it. The only place to go to get USA food is in a Import tiny shops. Our Presidents everyone of them let all our manufacturing go to Mexico, Canada and China. No wonder the United States is trillions of dollars in debt! No one has a lifetime income job with pensions and 401k plans! All the jobs moved and they allowed all those countries with out jobs to get richer while Americans get poorer every darn day!

This is VERY SAD news! One day ppl who’ve made this decision will regret it. Another Icon laid to rest.🥺

People don’t realize how hard it is to get people to operate the rides. It’s a shame that the park may close after being open since 1901
Sue
The park isn’t closing permo. “However, the Pennsylvania vacation destination has not announced its exact reopening date for 2027.”

HersheyPark isn’t shutting down permanently, just the Tidal Force ride.
