Knott's Berry Farm 2026: California's Original Theme Park Still Has the Magic
Often overshadowed by its famous neighbor, Knott's Berry Farm offers thrill rides, beloved food traditions, and authentic California history.
California's First Theme Park
Before Disneyland transformed Anaheim, there was Knott's Berry Farm. Walter Knott's roadside berry stand gradually evolved into a full-scale theme park that predates Disneyland's opening by years.
What Makes It Worth Visiting
Knott's specializes in genuine thrill rides with one of Southern California's strongest roller coaster collections, combined with a Ghost Town area preserving authentic Western Americana.
The Food Tradition
Mrs. Knott's Chicken Dinner Restaurant has been serving the same fried chicken, biscuits, and boysenberry pie since 1934 — one of the great California food traditions.
