Experience Knott’s Berry Farm Boysenberry Festival! From March 13 through April 12, enjoy a daily celebration of the world-famous boysenberry. Indulge in an extensive menu of delicious dishes, enjoy live entertainment, and browse local artisan crafts. Don’t miss the flavor-packed event of the season!

Located just about six miles apart, Knott’s Berry Farm and the Disneyland Resort are incredibly close neighbors in the heart of Orange County, CA. This proximity makes it easy for visitors to experience two world-class theme parks in a single trip, often within a short 15-minute drive. Whether you’re staying in Anaheim or Buena Park, you have convenient access to both the high-tech immersion of Disney and the historic, food-focused charm of Knott’s.

The ultimate way to experience the Knott’s Boysenberry Festival is by diving into over 100 signature boysenberry-infused menu items. This year’s savory debuts feature spicy boysenberry bulgogi served over steamed rice with green onions, plus a crispy reuben ball paired with zesty boysenberry thousand island dressing. For dessert, indulge in a new boysenberry and pineapple upside-down cake or a delicate boysenberry meringue tart.

A La Carte Hero Shot

Refreshing drink options abound, including a boysenberry paloma, a boysenberry and kiwi lemonade, and a vibrant boysenberry tequila sunrise. To sample the best of the fest, grab a tasting card to redeem six gourmet items of your choice from the diverse food and beverage lineup. Tasting cards can be purchased online or directly at the park.

Tasting Card Hero Shot

No Boysenberry Festival is complete without a boysenberry pie-eating contest, and this year has a twist. The Boysen Bear’s Pie Kitchen Games in Calico Park invites guests to help thwart those sneaky coyote pups, Moxie and Brawny, from stealing all the pies! Once they save the day, they can celebrate on the Calico Mine Stage at the Boysen Bear’s Pie Eating Contest. The adventures continue at the newly renovated Birdcage Theatre with The Great Bank Robbery, an exciting show that will have the audience cheering the hero and booing the villain.

Pie Eating Contest

Knott’s Preserved returns and will take guests on a musical journey from the little ghost town of Calico to the Seaside Boardwalk of the Roaring ’20s to commemorate the park’s heritage. Also returning is Old MacDonald’s Barn, a tribute to one of the farm’s original attractions. Guests of all ages can enjoy the cutest critters on the farm, including horses, goats and other furry friends. At the History of the Boysenberry Museum at Town Hall, guests can learn all about the little berry that had a big impact on the Knott family and Southern California.

Craft Fair Demonstrations

In the streets of Ghost Town, the yearly Boysenberry Festival Crafts Fair will be back in full swing with unique boysenberry-inspired artisan products from over two dozen local craft vendors. Also, returning to The Factory Store, celebrate all things Boysenberry with fan favorite the “Tied Up in Knott’s” art show featuring pieces by the Knott’s community of artists.

After a long day of boysenberry fun, guests are invited to stay on the farm at Knott’s Hotel, only steps away from the park. The Boysenberry Festival package includes overnight accommodations, one day admission per person registered, one boysenberry tasting card (valid for six tasting items), one single-use Fast Lane per person registered and hotel parking. Guests can book at sixflags.com/knotts/knotts-hotel.
