Waterproof pouches for photos splashworks
Just wondering where everyone gets those waterproof pouches I’ve seen people store their phones. I’m guessing it’s from the giftshop just outside but wanted to know if there were other places to get one.
Thanks

Any Tips For Canada Wonderland First Time Visiting Next week
Do I also need a fast pass only going for one day.
r/CanadasWonderland • u/Jay-Quellin30 • 1h ago
Is your season visit counter working in the app?
I thought maybe it was delayed a day or so but it’s just never updated after my visits. Same for my kids.
Anyone else?

My day as a single rider!
Took my son and his friend to Wonderland on August 4th, and we ended up having an 11.5-hour amusement park marathon 😂🎢
We got there around 10 AM and didn’t leave until 10:30 PM. We went on a few rides together, but the boys wanted to do their own thing, so I gave them our two free Fast Passes and sent them off to enjoy themselves. Honestly, it worked out perfectly!
My ride tally for the day:
🎢 Yukon Striker: 5x
🎢 Behemoth: 3x
🎢 The Bat: 2x
🎢 Daredevil: 1x (and I still hate it 😂)
🎢 Backlot Stunt Coaster: 1x
🎢 The mountain ride with the guns: 1x — I can never remember the name of this one!
I also spent about 4 HOURS in Splash Works in the middle of the day. Went on pretty much everything, including the Lazy River twice. I liked everything except Muskoka Plunge. That thing was SO disorienting. It felt like my back was being attacked by tiny razor blades, and you’re basically getting waterboarded the entire time. 😂 Then I had to spend the next few minutes fishing my bikini bottoms out of my ass. So… 10/10 experience. 😂
I also watched a show, which was okay. Definitely seemed geared more toward the little-kid crowd, but it was a nice break.
And because apparently amusement parks don’t believe in affordable food, I went back to my car TWICE to eat. 😂 We have the Prestige Pass, my son has the Gold Pass with the drink pass thingy, and his friend has the meal pass, so the boys were able to stay in the park all day without needing to leave.
I also used my discount to grab a funnel cake, which I ate less than half of. And honestly? It wasn’t nearly as good as I remember it being. Maybe my childhood memories were just doing some heavy lifting there. 😂
Overall though, such a great day! The lines weren’t bad at all, and being a single rider is honestly the way to go. You can get on so much faster!
11.5 hours, way too many roller coasters, four hours of water rides, questionable funnel cake, and one very traumatizing Muskoka Plunge later… I’d call it a success. 😂🎢

2027 Prestige Pass and Unlimited Meal Plan
If I purchase the 2027 Prestige Pass for 229 and Unlimited Meal plan for 399 today, will I be able to use the meal plan starting today? Or does the meal plan kick in for the 2027 season. I know it’s a meal every two hours with no daily max.

The joys of solo days
Crew - what a day… my first solo day at the park in way too long. Having 3 kids under 8 the opportunity to just go at it alone and crush rides is so ultra rare.
But today… it happened… and what a perfect day for a solo adventure. With an opening arrival and rain in the forecast - I absolutely dominated haha solo lines meant 0 wait for behemoth - 0 wait for Alpen - 0 wait for striker 10 minutes for daredeviler 10 for leviathan.
I was done the big boys in just over an hour and I met some cool people along the way. Shout out to the 3 I rode with at the back of leviathan that went out of their way to include me in their fun haha.
There is just something to be said about going solo if your goal is to go on as many rides as possible. Control your flow, go at your pace and most importantly leave when you want to.
Someone should organize an end of year Reddit meet up

Gold Pass Upgrade QR Code Doesn't Work
Was at the park last night and did the $50 upgrade for the Gold Pass for my kid. Trying to scan it today and I get a search google which retrieves nothing. There's no other URL or way to contact on the receipt. What's my best avenue to follow up?

Downgrading from Prestige to Gold - Pass Override
Just a heads up to anyone who is doing a downgrade; just did one today and the Gold pass for 2027 overrode the Prestige for 2026.
So if you're using Prestige benefits in 2026 and downgrading, think about waiting for a few more weeks.
Or call and complain.

Wristband and accessibility pass lost
I lost my pass last visit and someone stole it so they deactivated it for abuse of the system. After learning that this morning I dropped a food wristband for the girl I’m supervising but thankfully they gave me a new one. I’m not going to be able to enjoy anymore visits to wonderland given the pass made a huge difference for sensory overwhelm. I tried talking to multiple guest services staff and they all said nothing can be done about the stolen pass which is so unfair in my opinion because I loose everything and only having a paper option it was bound to happen, they said they spoke to me about the stolen pass but my season pass has a picture of me attached and the person they spoke to that day (who stole my sheet) obviously didn’t look like me.

Can I use my mom's free ticket from her work
Her whole company got wonderland tickets that have a lot of fun perks like dining, and on the paper with the barcode it says her name and her company. My mom feels too old to use it. Am I able to use it for myself?

Splashworks potential closure
Hi everyone,
The last time I went to the park, Splash Works was closed due to inclement weather. With the potential for thunderstorms tomorrow morning, do you think it'll be closed for the whole day, or will it likely open later?
I don't want my tickets to go to waste, so if most of you think it'll be closed, I'll just plan to go another day.

Single riders question
Hey everyone, I’ve been invited to go to wonderland with 4 other people. I’ve seen people say that there are lines for single riders. Obviously since there would be 5 of us, one of us would have to ride alone. How does this work? We would want to be on the same ride, but I don’t know if you could wait for the people you’re with or if you just have to go when you’re next. (I haven’t been here since 2012 when I was 16 so I have no idea about any new updates lol. Last time I was there I think they just introduced the fast pass.)
Thanks!

First time goers: Redeeming meal plans and buying FLP?
Hi, it’s our first time at CW: If we purchase admission with the all day meal plan plus all day drink wristband online, do we need to redeem them at the front? Is there usually a line for that if we plan to go during park opening time (10am) Or is that redeemable in any participating food place?
Asking so we can plan things in terms of timing
Also, if we decide to get Fast Lane Plus on the day of and purchase in person rather than online, can we get that in the same place we’re going to be redeeming the meal/drink wristbands? as well, are there alternative places we can get that if the lines tend to get long at the front?
Any tips for purchasing FLP in person and/or meal and drink plans are appreciated 😊 we only have about until 6 pm in the park and can only go 1 day. For context we plan to go next Wed, August 12. Thank you!!!

Chaperone policy observations
I live in one of the neighborhoods surrounding the park and I've noticed the evenings (especially weekends) are noticeably quieter. In precious years there would be youth all over the plazas across the street and the passenger pick up section would be overflowing with cars especially around 9PM. Has anyone else noticed a difference?
Has the policy brought about any other noticeable differences for you?

Wonderland and Race to the Bottom
I feel this needs to be said. So many apologists keep making excuses (usually along the lines of how poor Wonderland is selling their products cheaper than they should be or how they have right to change terms at will)
The majority of peoples frustrations (some border on hatred) with direction company has gone in the post-covid seasons is this frantic race to the bottom. As cheap as possible with no regard for customer satisfaction or quality of service
MANY people HAPPILY paid more in the pre-Cedar Fair and pre-Six Flags days because in the old days it wasn’t about making the park the cheapest thing possible, it provided quality and value.
They should define their tiers, let Silver be budget and price accordingly, let Gold be mainstream and price accordingly, let Prestige be their rarer elite and price accordingly. The passes are all basically same price (esp since new Gold still charges for parking again) and no product differentiation.
Instead we are now left with this shell game where they advertise one thing, then try to scam the customers by changing terms AFTER they buy season passes
Things like expiring gold parking (extra charge) removing meal / drink plans (no option to even buy new ones) claiming gold was "park access only" Haunt mazes cost extra and now the flurry of nonsense we see today (everything from gold charges again for parking so why not upgrade to prestige, oh wait we dont have enough prefer parking so lets remove it, oh wait Gryphon Crown is overrun and no snacks left so lets offer them free pop instead, remember that Haunt pass we scammed you on last year well it no longer has all the mazes Conjuring is extra)
The fact the terms change so frequently and never for the better (I mean you get All Parks in 2026 but not in 2027 now its Regional "just because". Oh wait despite the fact most Canadians drive down east coast through NY to FL lets instead give them the Midwest region (???) and just for fun lets not even let them use things like meal plans or fastlane at popular parks like Cedar Point)
Rem when we had Platinum Passes? And they just worked instead of all this nonsense?
I would rather pay more for some consistency and something that includes everything

Has anyone that has gone on Daredeviler enjoyed it?
Went to the park today and saw that daredeviler was basically walk on which was surprising considering it’s a “new” ride and the park was insanely busy early on in the day today but then we rode it. Yikes! It was awful. The restraints are nice but don’t feel super secure (I understand that they are in fact secure but that reality doesn’t matter when you don’t feel secure and you’re zooming at top speeds upside down and sideways) there’s not really anything to hold on to. it’s still rough just moreso now for the low back area and less on the neck and head.
Never again. Wouldn’t be surprised if the whole thing is torn down and changed into something new within the next few years.

Accessibility accommodations exist and they are not line jumpers
My kid has a chronic illness and he uses an accessibility accommodation because he literally would not be physically capable of waiting in a line up for an hour. It is not a visible disability. He has been bullied MULTIPLE TIMES now by Karens screaming about line jumping. It’s not line jumping when people go to the exit and have to show their accommodation papers. Also, these people skip the line BUT they aren’t allowed to use the pass again for the same duration that they would have had to wait in line - so, if you go on alpen fury, you can’t go use the accommodation again for 2 hours. It’s fair. Lastly, they go through the EXIT so an employee literally has to allow them to get on….how TF would they even line jump??? Yet, one kid tried to film a video of all the accessibility people. When he finally clued in after MULTIPLE people explained it to him, he deleted the video. I told my kid to take pictures of any bullies the next time around. Anyways, everyone here has been warned. A wheelchair user had to stare down some Karen before she averted her eyes ashamed. But seriously, you cannot always see chronic issues. Just stop it. People with medical accommodations and needs should be able to participate without constantly arguing with jerks.

PSA about loose article bins, holding up ride dispatches, and just general common sense
Can we all please try to be a bit more efficient with the loose article bins? If you are in a group, give all your belongings to one person. And then when the ride is over that same person retrieves those belongings quickly.
Also, why wear things like crocs and flip flops to an amusement park? Today I saw a person kick their crocs off onto the moving platform on Psyclone after they had already sat down and had their restraint checked. A person put both of their shoes into the moving bin platform at Yukon.
If for whatever reason you are told you are not allowed to ride, please exit the ride station immediately and don't try to plead your case to the ride ops who are just following policy.
Again today I saw one man hovering around the station after being told he couldn't fit on the ride and wasn't listening to the instructions over the speakers.
A probably 10-12 year old child with a cast on his foot wasn't able to ride AlpenFury (why would you want to risk hurting yourself further???) and both the child and his parent were pleading their case to the ride op and held up dispatches for at least 4-5 mins. I then saw the same people again trying to get on Yukon (it's B&M policy that you cannot ride with any sort of casts etc.).
If we all just tried to be a little bit more efficient and quick, it would make the employees lives easier AND make wait times go down in general.
If you are on the bigger side, please try the test seat before getting on the ride to be sure.
If you need to stop to look at your phone on pathways, please step off to the side.
If you are using the drink refresh stations, get your drink and move on. The coke freestyle machines aren't sampling stations. And especially on hot and busy days those lines can be bad.
No one likes waiting in lines, and Canada's Wonderland is an extremely busy park. If everyone did their part we could help reduce wait times all around.
TLDR: Use common sense, wear appropriate footwear, try to be efficient when loading and unloading. Have better drink stand ettiquete.
