Grand Opening of Coney Island’s 2010 Season!
This Sunday, March 28 is the opening day of Coney Island’s 2010 Season!
We hope you’ll be on hand to participate in the day’s festivities – from the Open House at the Coney Island History Project from 12 – 3PM to the season’s first rides of the Cyclone.
*Several Save Coney Island volunteers will be enjoying a post-ride beverage at Ruby’s – so stop by at 4PM!
And there’s more to come. We’re eagerly awaiting the Memorial Day opening of the new Zamperla amusement park “Luna Park” on the former site of Astroland. The Coney Island USA Sideshows by the Seashores will be back, freakier than ever; Lola’s Dreamland Roller Rink will return to the wonderful Child’s building; the Coney Island History Project will unveil new exhibit items, the Ringling Brothers Circus will re-pitch its big top, and that’s just the start of it… Let’s not forget the big ticket events: the Mermaid Parade, Siren Festival, and Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest, all of which will be coming back this summer.
We hope to see you on Sunday for the start of a spectacular season!
