Why go

This is the operating Elitch Gardens, relocated from its original West Highland grounds in the 1990s. The downtown coasters deliver the present-day amusement park experience, while the relocated historic carousel gives a tangible link to the older gardens. Island Kingdom adds a separate water-park option in season.

What to look for

  • Roller coasters and other rides define the downtown theme park.
  • The historic carousel came from the original Elitch Gardens site.
  • Island Kingdom is the park's seasonal water-park section.

Useful to know

  • Check the dated park calendar and water-park availability before choosing a visit day.
  • Make the rides the main outing; add Island Kingdom only when its section is operating.
