In a very interesting move, Groupon is now offering season passes to Cedar Point for the 2018 season. While the discount website has offered daily tickets in the past, we can not recall a time when season passes were sold.
A Regular season pass is running $149.57 $150.80.
A Platinum season pass is $224.64 $226.72.
By comparison, these are the same prices as those offered directly from Cedar Point. Buying them online at CedarPoint.com adds in a $5.99 $6.99 processing fee and tax. However, buying them directly at the park saves you the processing fee, making them effectively the same cost as those on Groupon.
