July 8: Cherry Fest Kids Carnival Discount
Stuff We Love
By Lynda Wheatley | July 3, 2021
July 3 through July 6 brings the National Cherry Festival fun kids dream of all year: Arnold Amusements Midway — a mecca of carnival rides, carnival games, and carnival food at the corner of Grandview Parkway and Union Street in Traverse City. Thursday, July 8, however, is the day their parents dream of: Kids Day, when the price of a ride-til-you-puke armband, good from 11am–6pm, drops from the usual $30 to $25. (Hey, saving $5 per kid adds up — especially if Mom and Dad have an Elephant Ear addiction to tend to.) The rest of the week, $30 armbands get wearers unlimited rides for one of two sessions daily, 11am–6pm or 6pm to close. (Except Wednesday’s first session, which starts at 12:30pm.) Individual tickets are also available for $1.25 each or 22 tickets for $25. Plan your day — or days — at the festival by visiting cherryfestival.org.
