WinterFest
Santa's Holly Jolly Dinner
Your ticket to family fun!
For over 45 years, Carowinds has been right at the heart of where the Carolinas come together, so we know a thing or two about Carolina culture. It's something mighty special and we want you to see (and taste and experience) just why we love it here.
World-Class Rides
Grab a buddy and scream out loud on one of our 13 world-class rollercoasters or explore our kids’ area - Camp Snoopy - filled with fun for the entire family. With over 60 rides, shows and attractions, there is something for every member of the family.
Coastal Thrills
Carolina Harbor celebrates the culture of the Carolina coast while serving up a gracious helping of hospitality, relaxation and family fun - all intertwined to create the ultimate waterpark experience. Plus, it's always included with the price of admission.
Authentic Carolina Cuisine
As you likely know, the Carolinas are all about food, and Carowinds is prepared to serve up the very best. Our executive chef plans our menus with all-time Carolina favorites. In all areas of the park, you're able to enjoy delicious, authentic Carolina fare.
Seasonal Events & Entertainment
From music festivals to seasonal celebrations, our special events calendar dishes out unique experiences and family activities all year. SCarowinds and The Great Pumpkin Fest are fall festivals that will make you shriek and giggle, and WinterFest, our holiday event, immerses you in the season's spirit.
