Holiday World & Splashin’ Safari: 75 Years of America’s First Theme Park Book
The battle for first theme park designation is being fought between Knott’s Berry Farm and Holiday World & Splashin’ Safari. The term theme park wasn’t coined until Disneyland, but can be attributed to Knott’s or Holiday World, depending your point of view.
Regardless, Holiday World is an amazing theme park in Southern Indiana that deserves attention. I visited Holiday World in 2016 as part of a roller coaster weekend that included King’s Island, Kentucky Kingdom, and Cedar Point. The first video on my channel featured Holiday World.
Holiday World History Book
When I read about the new book on the history of the 75 year-old theme park, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on it. The park is still family-owned and -operated with fourth generation Koch members at the helm.
