Playland Opens Memorial Day, Beach and Rides Limited
Westchester County's Playland Amusement Park is set to open for the 2025 season on Memorial Day weekend with free admission, although many rides may remain closed due to ongoing maintenance and required safety inspections after a contract dispute with former operator Standard Amusements. The county blames Standard Amusements for neglecting ride maintenance, while Standard Amusements argues the county failed to upgrade essential infrastructure. Zamperla, an amusement ride manufacturer, has been hired on an emergency basis to inspect and repair rides, which must be certified by the New York State Department of Labor before use. The Playland beach and food stands will be open at the start of the season, with the pool and other amenities set to open later. Admission prices after the opening weekend will depend on how many rides are available, and parking will cost $10, half the previous rate. Separately, Moore's splash pads have opened for the 2025 summer season, operating daily through September 14.
