Warren County amusement park Kings Island will begin daily operations for the season today.

The park will be open 10 a.m.-7 p.m. on weekdays and 10 a.m.-9 p.m. weekends until Memorial Day, after which it will operate 10 a.m.-10 p.m. daily.

This year, the park has made numerous updates to its existing attractions. This includes a complete overhaul of Backlot Stunt Coaster, swapping its old Los Angeles theme out for a celebration of all things Cincinnati. The ride even has a new name, Queen City Stunt Coaster.

The ride, built by WhiteWater West, will use water jets to boosts guests to speeds of up to 30 mph as they race others through its twisting layout.

After Aug. 17, both Kings Island and Soak City will only open on the weekends, before the latter closes for the season Sept. 1.

Kings Island is located at 6300 Kings Island Drive in Mason. For more information, go to visitkingsisland.com.
