Huge news, Knott’s Scary Farm Season Passes will go on sale tomorrow @ 6 AM!
Same. Also wish I knew how much single night tickets were going to be before dropping $170 on a pass.I’ll have to wait til Friday since I didn’t renew my pass for this year. Hoping they don’t restrict sales to a such small number of passes that it sells out quickly.
It took about five minutes for the tickets to go live (during which I was panicking), but after that I had no issues.I got my pass. Hopefully it's smooth for everyone else as well!
I had that same issue too. Thankfully it all worked out and glad you were able to get yours! As of right now, they are still up on the site so hopefully Friday goes the same way.It took about five minutes for the tickets to go live (during which I was panicking), but after that I had no issues.
Now I need Friday to go off without a hitch as I have a few out of towners coming in who want to spend three nights at Scary Farm
Since they actually announced they were going to put them on sale to the public, I imagine they have some set aside for pass holders (the initial batch) and then they open it up to everyone on Friday.I had that same issue too.

Last year and 2021 were the only years it was available to pass holders only. The reason was, they were genuinely uncertain if they would be able to HAVE the event that year due to the surge in cases last spring.I would agree, but Knott's also only made their Scary Farm passes available to passholders in years past, so I don't take any standard wisdom for granted. I'm genuinely surprised they aren't making it a passholder exclusive to drive passes. If anything, it's also extraordinarily strange to make passes available at 6 PM PST for a west coast park. Who does that? Not even Nike drops sneakers that early in the morning.
I think they were really hung up on the "666" marketing. Sixth month, sixth day, six AM. That is the only thing I can think of since the passes go up for everyone else Friday at 10 AM.I would agree, but Knott's also only made their Scary Farm passes available to passholders in years past, so I don't take any standard wisdom for granted.

The parking still works for Scary Farm. Not cut off time (at least in previous years there has not been).I'm a Platinum Pass holder for the regular park, and just got my first KSF season pass. Does the parking from my Platinum still work for haunt? If not, is there a cut off time for the parking?
They have always marketed these passes as "limited" but I don't know if that means a limited quantity, or they are just up for a limited time. As of this morning they are still available, so we'll see how long they last once Friday comes around.Since they actually announced they were going to put them on sale to the public, I imagine they have some set aside for pass holders (the initial batch) and then they open it up to everyone on Friday.
If I were them and I theoretically sold 10,000 passes a year, I would set aside x-amount (let’s say 4,000) for pass holders and leave aside the remaining amount (in this example 6,000) for the general public. Come Friday, the floodgates open and ALL my remaining stock goes on sale. So if I only sold 2,000 to pass holders, I put 8,000 up for sale on a first come, first served basis.
But that’s just me.

As stated above, in previous years there was no cut off for the parking.The parking still works for Scary Farm. Not cut off time (at least in previous years there has not been).
I'd imagine it's just a limited quantity because they have to place some limit on it, And they're not going to cut off sales just to cut off sales... That would lose them money. There's got to be some established number.They have always marketed these passes as "limited" but I don't know if that means a limited quantity, or they are just up for a limited time.

Correct. I'd imagine there is some limit. I just didn't expect them to be available this long after they dropped.I'd imagine it's just a limited quantity because they have to place some limit on it, And they're not going to cut off sales just to cut off sales...

Pre pandemic, when they used to put them on sale to the public in Spring/Summer (my memory is hazy on when I used to acquire mine), they still didn’t usually sell out until after the event started.Correct.

I remember this too. I guess with how many comments you see on their social media and elsewhere, I would have expected them to sell out already.Pre pandemic, when they used to put them on sale to the public in Spring/Summer (my memory is hazy on when I used to acquire mine), they still didn’t usually sell out until after the event started.
