Knott’s Boysenberry Festival Tasting Card Tips
During the course of the Knott’s Boysenberry Festival tasting cards can be a great way to try the plethora of food and beverage offerings found throughout the park. Here are a few tips to get the most out of your tasting card experience! If you have more, please share them in the comments below.
- Make a Plan – There are a TON of options. It’s a good idea to look at what is being offered ahead of time and then plan out which dishes you want and where you can get them from. Some offerings are found at more than one location and it can save time to get them at once rather than going back and forth from locations.
- Prioritize – Recognize that some locations will have longer lines than others. Decide ahead of time which dishes you are willing to wait for and decide if the length of line determines what you want. Adjust your plan accordingly as some locations will have significant lines for popular items during the festival.
- Purchase Early – Get your tasting card early! This gives you more time during the Knott’s Boysenberry Festival to enjoy it. If you have already decided you want to get a tasting card this year, you can get one on the Knott’s Berry Farm website. You can use the tasting card on more than one day. Get it early and then spread its use out over multiple days!
- Visit During the Week – Weekends are generally busier than during the week. If you are wanting to experience the different food and beverage offerings without experiencing the longest line, visit Knott’s Berry Farm on a weekday. Quite often the lines will be shorter and you can experience more tastes in a single day that way! Do keep in mind that often that the park often isn’t open as late during the week.
- Expand and Experiment – Tasting cards are a great way to expand your horizons and experiment with someone you wouldn’t normally try. This can lead to some fun new culinary experiences without the same level of investment as a full meal! Try something new and then share with us how it turned out!
The Knott’s Boysenberry Festival is a fantastic festival that is full of fun entertainment and delicious tastes. The tasting card is a wonderful way to experience this festival.
