I also cannot beleive how the circus and stuff can charge to park too, a $10 school ticket turns in to $20 because you have to pay to park. Maybe we do need a light rail.
It would be nice.....if light rail went down that way.
I just got 5 season passes WITH free parking for $295 on their website.
I really don't think $59/pp is expensive if you plan to go 10 or more times during the season. That is only $5.90 per visit. I pay that for a meal at McDonald's.
It is certainly a LOT cheaper than having to go somewhere and stay in a hotel and pay for eating out every day.

Maybe that's not too high for some folks, but its just too much for us when we go 2-3 hours at a time a few times a month. More power to anyone who wants to go--- If I had an extra 400 bucks, I'd probably buy the tickets anyway.
Same here. Since they were bought the prices have increased. We probably won't even go this year. Last summer we spent at least 1 or 2 days a week there.
According to their website, the price is 69.95 and includes free parking. They have deals based on age and family size.
It rather old news if you have been surfing their website or already been to park but the cost of a season pass is less than last year with added goodies

What you're forgetting is that for every time we go, it is $10 to park since you can't get the parking pass with the season pass now. So the "logic" is that it's not just an additional $20.00. Plus, the ticket price alone is $20 extra PER PERSON. If I could have gotten the passes at the $49.99 per person WITH the free parking, we might have "swung" that. So we're NOT going several times a month this year... very likely we will just pass altogether on Carowinds until we see what the season passes are for next year.
what i have underlined, i got free parking this year with my season pass.
im confused.
