Kings Island will not open for Winterfest Monday night, due to concerns over inclement winter weather, according to a Tweet from the company.
Ohio is in the midst of back to back winter storms. On Sunday, areas around Cincinnati, which is 20 miles south of Ohio's Kings Island, had 2-3 inches of snow. Areas around Kings Island on Monday could also see another couple inches of snow, in addition to some freezing drizzle.
The park stated that tickets purchased for Monday night will still be valid for any other night while Winterfest is open, through December 31.
Due to inclement weather, WinterFest will be closed tonight, December 16, 2019. Tickets purchased for tonight will be valid any single operating day through December 31, 2019. To view up-to-date hours of operation, please visit our website: https://t.co/YEEVo16IXs

Well, @KingsIslandPR won’t be open for # #KIWinterFest this evening (Monday 12/16) due to expected inclement weather. But the park sure was beautiful last night! pic.twitter.com/eCF4kJoa6W
