SANDUSKY, OH (MARION COUNTY NOW)—Cedar Point is set to launch Boardwalk Nights, presented by Blue Bunny®, a new signature event celebrating the park’s heritage as a classic beach boardwalk. The festivities kick off Friday, July 18, and will run nightly through Aug. 17, excluding Tuesdays.
The event promises a variety of musical acts, spectacular stunts, games, dancing, and food, taking place on the famous Cedar Point Beach and within The Boardwalk section of the park.
Daring Feats and Summer Sounds
Each night at 7 p.m., the Grand Opening Boardwalk Cavalcade will parade with massive stage floats and vibrant characters, including Ms. Popcorn and Ms. Cotton Candy. The Boardwalk Brigade, soulful SeaGals, and the Steamboat Swing Dance Party will provide musical backdrops on The Boardwalk.
On the sandy shore of Lake Erie, guests can enjoy specialty circus artist performances, synchronized kite shows, kids’ activities, and the all-new Fascination Funway game show. Classic feats of strength and endurance will be showcased around The Boardwalk with high-dive daredevils, extreme teeterboard artists, hand-to-hand human balancing teams, and the towering 40-foot-tall Wheel of Destiny.
Spectacular Treats
Boardwalk Nights will feature classic boardwalk tastes like colossal cotton candy, flavored popcorn, and hot dogs on grilled buns. Elevated options include the Blue Bunny® Boardwalk Brownie, donut-on-a-stick, jalapeño poppers with cheese sauce, pierogies with sour cream, and pickle-on-a-stick.
To quench thirst, guests can find beer and margarita flights, a signature cotton candy cocktail, Rocket Pop® Bonanza and ICEE® frozen drinks, signature spiked cocktails, and lemonade/limeade shakers.
