Face Masks No Longer Required On Cedar Point Rides

SANDUSKY, OH — Cedar Point will no longer require guests to wear face masks on rides.

The theme park announced a host of safety changes as it gears up for its 2021 season. Reservations are still required for guests visiting either Cedar Point or Cedar Point Shores Waterpark. Season passholders and single-day ticket users will both need reservations.

"We’re all in this together and by working together you can safely and confidently enjoy the thrills and fun that only Cedar Point can deliver this season," the park said on its website.

There will still be health screenings as guests enter the park and hand sanitation stations have been placed around the parks.

Park guests will no longer have their temperatures checked prior to entering the park, and there will no longer be limits on ride capacity. Face masks are recommended for guests as they ride roller coasters, but are not required. Social distancing will still be enforced in lines for rides.

Guests 10 and older will be required to wear face coverings indoors, unless they're actively eating or drinking. Face coverings will not be required outdoors, unless social distancing is impossible. Face coverings should cover the nose and mouth and cannot have valves or vents, which allow virus particles to escape, the park said.
