- Reservations are NOT required for the amusement park…. Just Soak City
- Temperature checks for guests have been discontinued at the front gate.
- The health screen questionnaire will be conducted by associates at the front gate and will not be conducted through the Kings Island mobile app.
- Guests aged 10 years and older are required to wear face coverings while indoors unless actively eating and drinking. Face coverings are not required outdoors unless it is not possible to maintain 6′ of social distancing. Face coverings should completely cover the nose and mouth, and not have exhalation valves or vents, which allow virus particles to escape.
- There will be no limitations to ride capacity for most rides. Face coverings are recommended for outdoor rides and required for indoor rides.
