Pride Night @ Kings Island (official)

TICKETS AVAILABLE NOW: the Midwest’s largest amusement park entertainment event September 6, 2013 benefiting a local community group – the GLBTQ Center. You can buy your tickets at the Center NOW online at www.cincyglbt.com/pride-night or at Center. On line requires credit card (choice of will call or print ticket with attached printer). This event celebrates its 17th year at Kings Island! Tickets are also available most nights at Center (cash only, limited to individual tickets only - group sales of seven or more must be conducted on line!) Folks from over 30 states attend this event! The GLBTQ Center thanks the generosity of Kings Island. It is a great value and a chance to benefit Greater Cincinnati’s only GLBTQ Center serving a diverse community. The proceeds cover much of the annual operating expense of this 20-year-old community organization (founded September 17, 1993). Tickets not only include free parking ($12 value) but have not increased in price for this event in five years: Individual tickets online, or at Center $40 in advance and $45 at gate; or groups of 7 or more $36 (online only)! Kings Island waived the fee for electronic purchases on their e-store this year! That's an additional savings of $5. A portion of the ticket sales, depending on attendance is donated to the local Greater Cincinnati Gay & Lesbian Community Center each year. The Center is a non-profit organization as recognized as by the IRS 501(c) 3. While the event began as a private fundraiser, more and more allies are asking “do I have to be gay to attend?!?!” The simple answer – if you support equality – you’re welcome! Imagine NOT having to wait in line for your favorite ride? When you visit our Pride night page at www.cincyglbt.com/pride-night be sure to thank our sponsors! We appreciate their support! Kings Island opens the parking lot the day of the event at 5:00 pm, with the gates opening at 5:30 pm. The rides will begin operation at 6:00 pm. The event concludes at midnight. Please remember – while this is a child friendly event – it is geared toward adults. Because the event is always scheduled by Kings Island after Labor Day, the water park and children’s rides are closed. A question the GLBTQ Center gets a lot: Can I use my season’s pass or a discount coupon from a local store? No, sorry this is a fundraiser for the Center – no season passes or special discount coupons are honored. Tee shirts with this years pride night logo (to be announced) will be available for sale at the main entrance to the park. Most years, different area taverns and organizations have sponsored Pride Night weekend events, replacing the “after glow party” at Kings Island.
