My family came from TN to see family and go to Worlds of Fun. We spent the entire day from open to close. The major attraction to this place are the roller coasters. well this time of going wqas the worst time I have ever had at a theme park. Every coaster and water ride were not working for a... more

very clean, fun rides, courteous workers. they offered a deal 4 for $99 on their website and there was no mention of needing a coupon unless you clicked on further. Well, guess what, I didn't click on further and didn't realize I needed a coupon--ended up having to pay full price. VERY disappointing. So, if you go to the website... more

As a season passholder for Worlds of Fun, I have been to the park over a dozen times already this season. More often than not, I just hop in for a few hours to ride the parks featured attractions (Prowler, Mamba, and Patriot), and then leave when the crowds arrive. Anyway, I realize my previous review of Worlds of Fun... more

I think the rest of the reviews on this park are too harsh. Sure, the park has been open for 20+ years, but having just been there I did not witness many of the things mentioned in others' reviews. Sure, there are areas that could use some touch-up of paint, but by and large you don't notice it at all.... more

I arrived into the KC area less than 3 weeks ago. I came from the East coast where I've had season passes to Kings Dom and Busch Gardens/Water Country USA. Once I realized there was a water park right here in KC, I didn't hesitate in planning to purchase season passes, but was VERY nervous after reading the reviews. Bottom... more

My children and I went to WOF this September. Paying $10 to park does not seem fair considering you are are already paying for admission. Anyway, the first ride we encountered was Boomerrang. It was broke down and we were informed it usually is by the teenager attending the ride. We then went to the coaster we came for...Mamba. Oops,... more

I grew up in Kansas City, and during my teenage years I had a season passport to Worlds of Fun. The park use to be picture perfect and clean. Now, you have to pay $10 to park your car and walk all the way to the front entrance. No more tram service, that went away several years ago. You will... more

The price was a little much for the entertainment that we got from the amusement park. The park is stroller friendly however, but unless you want to fork money over for the little train and wait, expect you're family to be really tired by about halfway through the day ... especially when summer temperatures soar. We took our babysitter with... more

We are not originally from the KC area but live here now and decided to take our 4 year old to WOF for the day. $150 and four rides later we were regretting it. What a waste of money! Our son could ride almost none of the rides because he was too short and the rides we did get on... more

There are great rides here as well as entertainment! The Detonator is a ride that shoots up and bounces up and down-the Mamba is a big roller coaster that must be mastered, and the finale is the Thunderbird that squirts water at you as it flips you over and over again. That's a puke machine, so only go with an... more
