Specialty Festival Foods and Beverages
A key component to the Summer Nights festival are the food booths that can be found up and down the Knott’s midway. In addition to these booths, many permanent dining locations throughout the park offer limited time specialty items for the duration of the festival. Prop Shop Pizzeria, Boardwalk BBQ, and Ghost Town Bakery are just a few of the participating locations. Keep an eye out for the official drop of the Summer Nights food guide on the Knott’s Berry Farm website!

Save with the Summer Nights Tasting Card
A tasting card at Knott’s Summer Nights can be purchased for $50 plus tax and includes six tabs that are transferable for tastings at each of the festival booths. These tabs can be used on food, alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. Items can also be purchased a la carte without a tasting card.

Maximize Your Time
Skip the line all day long with a Fast Lane Pass, which gives you priority access to all your favorite attractions like HangTime, GhostRider, Silver Bullet, Supreme Scream, and more. Be sure to view the Fast Lane Availability Calendar to ensure it will be offered the day of your visit. Please note that Fast Lane is not offered daily, as it is dependent on crowd levels of the day.

Leave Cash at Home
Knott’s Berry Farm is a cashless theme park, meaning that all cashiers throughout the park and at the parking booths will only accept credit, debit, or a smart device with Apple Pay or Google Pay in place of cash. If for any reason you only have cash or forgot your card at home, no need to fret, there are cash-to-card kiosks where you can load cash onto a card with any amount between $1 to $500.
