The midway gets a horrifying makeover
The 2026 season brings a $2.5 million renovation of the park’s iconic midway, now reborn as Bonzo’s Bizarre. For years, Bonzo and his twisted troupe of clowns have been pouring drinks, running games, and entertaining guests throughout the midway, but now he’s fully taken over.
Guests entering the park will find a fully paved midway winding past permanent covered pavilions, four new food trucks, new fire pits with s’mores, and an upgraded beer garden pouring local wine and craft beer. Sugar & Steam serves fresh donuts, warm funnel cakes, hot cocoa, and coffee, while Fire and Fry covers flame-grilled favorites including gourmet burgers, pulled pork sandwiches, chicken tenders, mac & cheese, footlong hot dogs, and fries.
Organizers are promising the most terrifying and most guest-friendly season yet. It certainly seems they are ready to deliver
