As opening day for our season passholders is less than a week away, I thought I’d check in on our amazing Sweet Spot confectioners to give you a little “taste” on what they've been up to.

The main focus was getting cotton candy ready, along with my personal favorite, blue ice cream fudge cones. If you have not tried the blue ice cream fudge cones, allow me to be the first to tell you that they taste exactly like our world-famous blue ice cream does. These little spheres of sweetness are absolutely delectable, and are a must-try for visitors. As for the cotton candy, just over 300 boxes have been made today, and many more are on the way.

Did you know that Kings Island offers a variety of homemade flavors? Our “everyday” flavors may include bubble gum, cake batter, blue ice cream, cookie dough and chocolate fudge. If you're feeling adventurous, our “rotating” flavors include pear, pineapple, Bavarian cream, wasabi, alfredo, and butter!

Be sure to drop by Sweet Spot on International Street the next time you visit Kings Island.

The Beast: The first 40 years

The Beast has had a rich history throughout its 40 years of operation at Kings Island. Along the way there’s been some changes and improvements made to the legendary ride from season to season. Let’s take a look back and recall some unique facts about the ride as well as some changes made since The Beast first opened. The Beast was originally designed to operate with four trains and fewer cars on each. However, after testing began, it was deemed that three trains with more cars were more effective and improved cycle times.

Hidden references in Kings Mills Antique Autos

When you bring the past back to the present, you should always bring extras and that’s exactly what Kings Island did with the Kings Mills Antique Autos. While retaining the original look of the Les Taxis ride which operated from 1972 to 2004, Kings Mills Antique Autos features many odes to past and present rides within the ride itself. Let’s start with the cars themselves. These four passenger autos are 2/3-scale replicas of the 1911 Ford Model T, obviously an ode to the original cars from Les Taxis.
