After lots of Teasing, Carowinds finally announced their addition for 2011: Snoopy’s Starlight Spectacular. Featuring more than half a million LED lights, this new nighttime festival will extend from Country Fair to Planet Snoopy. The latest technology will be soon brought into the park for this sensory spectacular. To allow as many people as possible to enjoy Snoopy’ Starlight Spectacular, the park plan’s on expanding hours to 10 pm from June 27th, to August 7th 2011. Snoopy’s Starlight Spectacular will illuminate on these nights. The addition is reminiscient of what has been added the past two years at several Cedar Fair parks such as Cedar Point, Worlds of Fun, and Knott’s Berry Farm. In fact, this particular Carowinds version will share the exact same name as Knott’s recently added version. I got a chance to experience the show at Knott’s and the overall area was just plain fun. The music was retro but with some funk, and the lighting was most certainly impressive with all sorts of lights, 3D objects, and characters that made it a real treat for guests of all ages. You can check out a full review of Knott’s Berry Farm’s version of Snoopy’s Starlight Spectacular here. Expect this to be a popular addition to Carowinds for the 2011 season.
