Knott’s Berry Farm has teased a refurbishment of the Fiesta Village, as construction walls have gone up within that area of the park.
What’s Happening:
- Fiesta Village originally opened at Knott’s Berry Farm in 1969, seeing many attractions come and go over the years.
- Today, the area is home to the Montezooma’s Revenge and Jaguar roller coasters, as well as the park’s antique carousel, tea cups, amongst others.
- Following Knott’s posting this image promising a fiesta in summer 2023, construction walls went up around a large portion of Fiesta Village, as shown in these photos from Twitter user @Hubert_Wong2:
- No specifics have been announced, but expect at least a refresh of the buildings themselves.
- The Mexican-inspired menu from La Papa Loca will instead be offered at Wilderness Broiler on the other side of the park.
- This refurbishment is taking place concurrently with a year plus refurbishment for the classic Montezooma’s Revenge roller coaster.
