They say "not to see Elitch's is not to see Denver," or so that classic slogan goes.

The historic amusement park has announced their plans for the upcoming spring and summer 2025 seasons. Of course, all this happens as the debate continues on whether or not - and where - Elitch Gardens may move once the "River Mile" development project comes to fruition.

The most recent news about the move is no news at all, with spokespeople saying a year ago:

The park will be in its current location for the foreseeable future. Park management has no details regarding potential new locations.

Okay then... so what's the situation with 2025? Elitch's announced this week their plans for this year, which include a soft opening date of April 12 and 13, with a special "Season Pass Holder Appreciation Weekend"

The park will then be open to the public for weekends only until they open 7 days a week at the end of May through the summer.

Season Pass holders will get that exclusive first weekend, weather permitting of course, and it's not too late to get your own season pass. Prices are on sale right now and start at $79.99 for a regular season pass, or $104.99 for a "Super Pass" with some special VIP perks.

Kids between the ages of 3 and 5 can also get a free "Pre-K" pass with unlimited admission and rides by registering your child online.

While job postings have not yet been made for the 2025 season, you can keep up to date with all the positions they'll be hiring for when they announce them on the jobs section of their website.
