Happy #KnottsNYE! Win Two Tickets For 2014!

Disclosure:  This is a sponsored post in collaboration with GigaSavvy.  All thoughts are my own.  #KnottsNYE


One of my favorite memories of New Year's Eve is driving on the 5N freeway from Anaheim and seeing the fireworks from Knott's Berry Farm right at midnight.  It was perfect timing and quite poetic if you ask me.  We actually were on the way home after fireworks were cancelled due to strong winds at another place.  I was bummed about it, my kids were bummed about it and my visiting nephews were bummed about it but life is funny like that sometimes - you live life making plans and following through but it's the unexpected surprises that give you the most meaning.  This whole year has been a defining moment for me and made me slow down on planning and just going with the flow.  This year make plans for New Year's Eve at Knott's but just go with the flow because the party will be everywhere!  The park will have extended hours, live entertainment, special fireworks, Knott's signature rides and attractions AND Midnight Party on the Midway!

Count down the New Year with music, stilt walkers, party hats, and noisemakers for everyone. And new this year, the Knott’s Sky Cabin, adorned with special lighting effects, will dramatically rise to the top of the “K” tower to count down the final moments of 2013. The cabin will reach the top at the stroke of midnight and the skies above Knott’s will be ablaze with colorful fireworks!
