*PLEASE NOTE: The prices noted in this article are for the 2023 season*
Most Upstate New Yorkers live for the summer. The winters are brutal, and most of us are pale and vitamin D deficient by the time June rolls around. But summers, man! They're a blast up here. And for kids, nothing symbolizes the start of summer like a trip to the amusement park.
But can we talk about the cost? The price of everything is insane these days, including family outings. The cost of going to an amusement park can vary depending on several factors, including location, popularity, size, and the type of tickets or passes you choose.
