Knott’s Berry Farm & Knott’s Soak City Discounts and Deals

LAST UPDATE: 1/31/24

Knott’s Berry Farm is a theme park located in Buena Park, not far from Disneyland, and is open year-round. There are a lot of Knott’s Berry Farm discounts available. Check below for the latest Knott’s Berry Farm admission discounts, coupons, and offers.

Knott’s Berry Farm began as an actual farmstand that sold berries and other produce from nearby farms. People from all over Los Angeles would head there for fruit, jams, candy, syrup, much of it made with a kind of berry you could only get at Knott’s – the Boysenberry. As their popularity grew, they added the now-famous Chicken Dinner Restaurant and then started adding attractions for people to experience while they waited for a table at the restaurant. Eventually Knott’s developed into a unique theme park with all kinds of rides and attractions including rollercoasters and a log flume.

Knott’s associated Southern California water park, Knott’s Soak City Orange County in Buena Park (near Disneyland) is open seasonally. Check below for the latest Knott’s Soak City discounts, coupons and offers.

If you need tickets to Knott’s Berry Farm or Soak City and other Southern California attractions, it’s worth checking out the available multi-attraction ticket discounts to see if they can save you extra money. Be sure to compare the final cost of a multi-park pass to the combined cost of the individual tickets; the best deal varies depending on the specific attractions and the discounts that are currently available.
