I'm back at the park so quickly after my last visit! This time of course it's for Peanuts Celebration at Great America. As always, this event brings us some new entertainment and some new food! Let's jump into it!

Peanuts Celebration

Let's start with the main event at the park! Peanuts Celebration

Food And Drink

A good amount of food and drink at the park for this event

The bulk of the food were at these temporary stands near Planet Snoopy

And this one

And this one

And finally this one

The Good Grief Burger at Sierra Creek Lodge was the one that piqued my interest the most

So I got it! The verdict? It was a lot. Very tasty but ultimately a little dry, I would've liked to see a lot more tomato sauce on the pizza

This plantain looked fanastic but the stand was closed unfortunately

This churro was delicious however

Overall the food was just about the same as last year but I will say I liked the Juicy Lucy burger better than the Good Grief Burger. But I'm always glad to see the park try new fod, even if they aren't always home runs!

Entertainment

The map for the entertainment and shows

Unfortunately since it was a rainy day, a lot of the entertainment was either not happening or delayed

Like Snoopy's Legendary Rooftop Concert which took place at the Great America Theater Stage

Peanuts on the Go would happen in front of the Carousel

Then the crafts are back inside of Planet Snoopy

The one show I did catch was Music Goes Round and Around

It remains as cute as ever

Decorations and More

Just like last year, there are tons of banners and flags around the park

I liked this entrance area a lot

And the Peanuts gang cutouts are back!

As are plenty of photo opportunities

Oops, looks like Great America wasn't the first park to use this sign!

I thought this was pretty cool, you could talk into the mic and it would make your voice into the teacher voice

Although it was closed, this little stand usually sells souvenirs

Love the kites in the trees!

Although there wasn't a show on this stage as far as I can tell, they did show Peanuts trivia!

And of course, you could take your picture with plenty of characters, including the first time I've ever seen the Woodstock costume

So there weren't any big surprises at the event this year but ultimately, that's okay! The event is a lot of fun and I can't think of a ton of ways I'd improve it. Thanks to the park for putting it on!

Misc Updates

It rained all morning this morning and so the park was operating in a limited fashion. Thankfully not all of these rides stayed close all day, I saw Patriot up and running

At least the ducks enjoyed the weather!

Orbit remains closed and was being actively worked on

A little bit of progress over at All American Cafe

This sign was out front. Looks like the restaurant is adding mobile ordering

A little better look at the inside

The gazebo from a few years ago is back! Looks like there will still be shows at this location plus there's a little more seating for All American Cafe nearby

The bar in Orleans Place has a name! The Hurricane Bar

And finally, there was a dance competition happening at the park. Glad it was indoors and not subject to the weather!

Another good visit to the park! Seems like barring the All American Cafe changes, there isn't a ton happening at the park which is okay! I'll make my way back out to the park probably next month to check out the opening of the summer season!
