Hershey is open April 2nd. We went back in October, stayed at the Hershey Lodge. The indoor pool was fun! We asked for a room right near the water park, and those did not have the musty gross smell that we had last time we were there. The park was insanely crowded. It was absolutely mind-boggling how they let that many people in. The lines were very long. They said they were at a reduced capacity but their capacity must be like millions of people



I was reading on their Facebook page how they are requiring reservations for the park for the upcoming season. Not sure how that will work?



I was at Hershey last year. There is a calendar that you can see the open dates. You need to buy the tickets on line and then enter the ticket information into the website and you get a confirmation email. They just scan your tickets at the gate Iike usual. I was there the last weekend in august from sun-tues. Sunday was very crowded. Monday was completely empty.

ETA: we stayed off site. Not sure how it works if you stay at one of their hotels




We went to Hersey the weekend it opened last year. Lodge was completely packed - at full capacity. The Park was packed as well. We were packed like sardines in the wave pool with no masks. It was a little crazy.

Yeah they did in October also. You just buy a ticket and pick your day. If you stay at a Hershey resort you dont need to buy tickets in advance

And I have determined that the special event weekends draw the crowds. Not regular Summer because no one wants to wear a mask in 95 degree weather



So last year I bought tickets from the school PTA fundraiser because the prices are insane- like 40% off the gate price.
Hershey did open by June, but like you said I had zero desire to wear a mask in that heat. They said the tickets from the 2020 season will be honored until June 30 of 2021. So I have to use them before June.
Since I already have tickets I guess I just go online and make a reservation for the days we are going. But the reservations aren't open yet for the 2021 season - it says check back
