Anyone else notice that all of the coasters at SDC sit on the outside edges of the park and thats why they're all such good night rides? There's no other light/pathways back there, so it stays dark!!
It definitely is. The camera blinds you mid launch and I usually get my vision back at the top of the airtime hill immediately afterwards, and then it’s darkness. It’s right behind Outlaw Run for night rides for me
Parks don't realise how much money they could make with an event where they stay open all night and have DJ stages around the park. Make it an expensive ticketed event for adults woth cool club lighting everywhere. Open from 8pm till 4am. All night rides.
Anyone else jealous of these guys??? ✌️ It’s a top 5 park in the world, such a beauty. Walkable, immersive and the coasters are top tier (OR and TT are terrific bookends).
Thanks for visiting SDC! I have been working here since July (Fireman’s Landing) and have thoroughly enjoyed my time entertaining kids and parents alike. I hope to see y’all next year when Fire in the Hole opens!
Herschend just really knows how to build and run a park. Focused, consistent quality, good operations, food, and mindful of views and eyesights. I’ve never been to SDC’s Fall event, but I have been to Dollywood’s with all the amazing pumpkins. I had the same reaction.
SDC consistently ranks in my top Five parks, and I’ve been to more than 100, because I truly love every experience offered. The food is amazing, the staff is amazing, they have shows and dark rides, and the coaster lineup is solid.
This park looks absolutely incredible. And since it’s not Disney or Universal it’s not treated like it’s godlike, which makes me feel that this park is thoroughly underrated.
Silver Dollar City has no duds in the their coaster line up. While they don't have many coasters, Taylor statement is very true, I want to re-ride everything every visit. And most parks have a handful of one and done or only ride if there is extra time. This video makes me want to plan for a day the park is open later. As many times as I have been there I have yet to do the cave, I think that is must for next time.
What a great visit! I didn’t know they did any of this so thanks for going there and showing this! Looks absolutely fantastic. The pumpkin ghost were my favorite. So creative!
I've watched your other Silver Dollar City vlogs, but I feel like you got the authentic Silver Dollar City experience this time by doing the non-ride things, too.
This isn't my personal number one favorite park. It sits just outside my top 5. But this place is incredible and I wouldn't blame anyone if this was their number one park regardless of how many parks they've visited. It really has it all. It's one of those parks where the coasters aren't even the best offering and frankly that's a good thing.
I sent this blog to my mother to watch, trying to talk her & my dad into going to Silverdollar City. Cross your fingers! Such a great video of the park, day and night at this festive time. You guys are the best😊
I'm so glad that you both had a great time at my home park. The Christmas event is my favorite of everything they do. I've got 3 weekends planned there this year. I still think Dollywood has the best Christmas event though.
I wish Hulk had the Wildfire trains! Its like a hyper coaster in legroom, but otsr... Love Wildfire :) Thunderation is great! And ends with a satisfying "one last drop" experience.. layout wise & unfortunately pain wise, not as good as Adventure Express... however it has smoother transitions despite the potholes. my #2 arrow mine train. Time Traveler I definitely hope they can let it spin more. Sometimes you are facing forward for most of your ride lol
Just rerode Rockn’Rollercoaster for the first time since 2008 and conpletely forgot how intense it feels! How does that launch compare with others like Powder Keg???
I shouldn't be surprised that Marvel Cave has bats there. I wouldn't have guessed that those two ACTUALLY saw one "sleeping". Never would have guessed that most of SDC was over a cave.
When I was at Dollywood this summer i road Blazing Fury and they always would say Fire in the Hole before the ride, but this year there was no enthusiasm in anybody calling it out which was very disappointing cause every other time somebody would just scream it
what's the better extreme spinning coaster in the world? funfact SDC time traveller is with controlled spinning and the ride to happiness is no magnet to control the spinning
SIlver Dollar CIty and Dollywood (Herschend Entertainment parks) food quality is far above other regional parks. Most of it is good down-home cookin and alot of it is made from scratch!!!
You compare this park and call it Disney-esque? Pleeeease don't even go there!!. I am so tired of WOKE Disney and them cramming their IP's and their political rhetoric down your throat. That's what I like about Hershend Parks. Beautiful, relaxing, well-done authentic environment with beautiful landscaping...without attractions being themed after characters to sell more merchandise or advertisements everywhere No hidden agendas; just good ole well-done entertainment!! Compared to Disney, this park is a wonderful breath of fresh air!!!
