My 13 year old son & I have season passes, we always have a good time at the park! The food prices are a little high but that's to be expected. There is fun for all ages. I try to go on the cooler days as it does get very hot walking around. Try a water ride or an air-conditioned... More

Every year in the fall my friend and I visit an amusement park. Last fall we chose WOF due to the easy drive from St. Louis. I was worried the park would not be that much fun for us since some reviews were bad and because we are used to Six Flags parks and CedarPoint. Well I was wrong. We... More

Its just ok. Its no 6 flags. You have to walk miles to go through the whole park. Strollers are a must. The food is ok for theme park food a little expensive. More

Me and my boyfriend stood in line for the prowler (newest ride) for 30 minutes and finally get to the cart and sit down, fasten our seatbelts and pull the bar back and it won't lock. Needless to say we had to get off and couldn't ride because we are oversized. Pretty pathetic. We didn't try to ride any other... More

Attended a choir contest with daughter on Saturday. Worlds of Fun is a tired, older park that hit its peak many years ago. They have carnival quality rides and some big roller coasters (although none are cutting edge). The park lacks shows, good shops, and good (non coaster) rides. The food is extremely expensive. They have a Subway but a... More

After having many problems with SIlver Dollar City, we had decided to buy season passes to Words of Fun this year instead. After spending our first weekend at the amusement park, I would say it was a great decision. There are many rides to enjoy spread throughout the entire park so you are not just trying to get on the... More
