Carowinds to remain closed for rest of the year
Carowinds amusement park will remain closed for the remainder of the year, company officials announced Tuesday.
Posted — UpdatedThe park, located in Charlotte, was unable to open this year due to the coronavirus pandemic. It was set to open for the season on March 21 but was delayed due to a statewide stay-at-home order.
“We are disappointed that we are unable to welcome our guests back to the park this season,” Carowinds' vice president and general manager Pat Jones, said. “The safety of our guests and associates is always our top priority. Although we have done our due diligence in developing a comprehensive safety plan in accordance with industry and public health standards, the continued uncertainty in our region brought by COVID-19 leads us to the difficult yet responsible decision to keep the park closed for the rest of the year. We look forward to a great 2021 season with new rides, attractions, and entertainment for the whole family. We thank our guests and associates for their continued loyalty and support during this challenging time.”
In addition to its busy summer season, Carowinds also transforms for Halloween and WinterFest events each year. Those events are also canceled.
