In the past, we historically put out a list of Cedar Fair attractions that celebrate anniversaries each year. The goal being looking ahead to the rides that celebrate anniversaries in 5 year increments. We admittedly got lazy in 2021 and did not put out a list. So lets take a moment, refocus, and get back to what makes visiting Cedar Fair parks FUN, the rides.
Note: Out list is comprised of all major rides and attractions with the exception of kid or water park rides.
