Parking is accessible adjacent to the Great American Park and guests should attempt to get hold of Great America tickets as soon as possible. It is probably best to visit the park when there is the least amount of people there. Summer time during weekdays is probably the best time for this purpose.
If the weather is slightly off, this might be the best time to visit the park. This is because the queues are shortest when the weather is slightly off. Less people will be in the park and this allows you to have more fun, as you do not have to queue up for rides and everything else.
The rides are still operational regardless of the weather conditions. Safety at the park is a big issue and each guest will be scanned before being permitted into the park. Handbags, purses and the like are also searched for any undesirable contraband.
If you intend staying the evening then bring a jacket with you. There are lockers that you can keep the jackets and other items in during the daytime. During the day it is wise to wear sunscreen and a hat as the sun can be quite punishing during the summer months.
You are not permitted to bring food into the park, however you can take food to the picnic area that is located outside the main gate. Rather use a fanny pack to carry money as it will be much more comfortable on the rides than carrying a wallet in your pocket. However, you need to get your Great America tickets now while they are available.
