ClosedThe water park is closed until next summer. 2027 day tickets show "On Sale Soon," and Cedar Point next door is running HalloWeekends on select dates.
Cedar Point Shores used to be called Soak City. It's the same water park next to Cedar Point, renamed in 2017.
Cannonball summary
The short version
You can't buy a 2027 Cedar Point Shores day ticket yet. The park's ticket page says "On Sale Soon," and Shores is ticketed separately from Cedar Point.
The deal you can buy today is the 2027 Gold Pass at $125. It covers Shores, Cedar Point and the other Midwest Six Flags parks, with free general parking. The $99 Silver Pass does not include Shores.

Where it's cheapest to buy
We checked the usual discount spots so you don't have to open ten tabs.
| Where | Best price found | Our take |
| Park website (2027 Gold Pass) | $125 | The only way to lock in Shores visits for 2027 right now. Includes parking |
| Park website (day tickets) | — | 2027 Shores day tickets marked "On Sale Soon" |
| Tripster | — | Sells Cedar Point tickets only. It says Shores isn't included |
| Tripadvisor (Viator) | — | Has a Shores admission listing, currently unavailable |
| AAA | — | Some regional AAA clubs sell Cedar Point tickets; check your club in spring |
| Employer perks (MemberDeals, Tickets at Work) | — | Often carry Six Flags parks; log in to your company's portal to check |
My take: if you'll come to Shores twice next summer, or Shores plus one Cedar Point day, the Gold Pass is the move. Otherwise wait for day tickets in spring.– John

Can you bring food?
Plan on buying food inside. Tripster's Cedar Point listing says outside food and drinks aren't allowed, except sealed water bottles and special-diet items, and Shores' dining spots like Dockside Grill and Beaches & Cream take Cedar Point's dining plans. The park's own Shores page doesn't spell out a cooler policy.

Shores rents redesigned poolside cabanas that you reserve online. The park doesn't post 2027 cabana prices, and admission isn't included.

Shores is closed for the fall, but Cedar Point next door runs HalloWeekends on select dates. HalloWeekends bundles (admission plus mazes) start at $70 online, and a Gold Pass bought now covers Cedar Point for the rest of 2026.
