My take: nobody's selling Soak City day tickets in October. Check back in spring, or grab the Gold Pass if Knott's is on your list too.– John
Coupon sites list Soak City codes year round. We couldn't find one that works, and there's nothing to apply them to until 2027 tickets go on sale.
| Ticket | Price | Good to know |
|---|---|---|
| 2027 Gold Pass | $139 | Water parks plus West Coast Six Flags parks; regular $240 |
| Gold Membership | $12/month | Plus $40 initiation fee; includes water park admission |
| Soak City Daily Ticket | Coming soon | One date; not valid at Knott's Berry Farm |
| Soak City Good Any Day | Coming soon | Any operating day of the season |
| Kids 2 and under | Free | Per Tripster |
The 2027 Season Pass ($115) lists Knott's Berry Farm only, so we don't count it for Soak City. Taxes may apply.
2027 day prices aren't out yet, so here's what we know for a family of four.
Mostly no. Outside food and drinks aren't allowed, except unopened or empty water bottles, baby food, and food for special dietary needs. A small handheld cooler (up to 12 × 18 inches) with water or sports drinks only is fine. This comes from Tripster's listing; we couldn't open the park's own policy page.
Cabanas and lockers are for rent. The park hasn't posted 2027 prices.
Six Flags said Soak City would get a refresh and new look during the 2026 season as part of its company-wide investment. It hasn't said what changed.
Soak City is cashless, so bring a card or phone. Kids 2 and under get in free.– John
If you'll do Knott's and Soak City next year, the $139 Gold Pass covers both. A Knott's day ticket alone is $65 online.
Soak City-only family? Wait for the Soak City pass, which goes on sale closer to summer.
Passholders who drive in: the $90 All Season Parking pass beats $40 a day by your third visit.
Pack a small cooler with water or sports drinks. It's allowed and saves a few drink runs.
No. The 2026 season ended Sept 7. The park hasn't posted its 2027 opening date.
Not a working one. As of October 2026, 2027 day tickets aren't even on sale yet.
The 2027 Gold Pass ($139) includes water park admission, so yes. The $115 Season Pass lists Knott's Berry Farm only.
No. They're separate parks with separate day tickets. Only certain passes cover both.
Soak City shares Knott's lots. Knott's lists daily parking from $40, or $90 for 2027 All Season Parking for Season and Gold passholders.
