Ready to Say 'Yes' to Fun? Visit One of These Best Amusement Parks Near You for a Splashing Great Time!
Even though we've said goodbye to summer, there’s no better time to hit up an amusement park given many of the larger parks offer special holiday programming. But where are the best amusement parks—and are there any near where you live? To help you find out, we’ve rounded up 100 of our favorite amusement parks in the country—two from each state. That way you don’t have to spend time researching them on your phone.
And while all of them don’t include roller coasters (because not all states actually have giant amusement parks and several have actually shut down due to COVID), they all have attractions that make them worthwhile and fun! Some of them include mountain coasters where you can literally ride down a mountain, others have fun themes that you can only experience there and others are places you can make unforgettable family memories at. If you read about one that isn’t located near you, you can work it into your vacation if you’re ever on a trip near it in the future.
So what are you waiting for? Check out all of the amazing, fun, thrilling and unique amusement parks below. When you’re going through our list, you may even discover some that you never knew existed!
