Face coverings and temperature screenings will also be required, along with social distancing in lines, restaurants, and other facilities. If you have a temperature of 100.4 or greater you will not be allowed in the complex. If you don’t have a face covering, you will be asked to purchase one. There will also be increased sanitizing stations.

KSC is offering a limited time package for the initial opening that includes daily admission, parking and a complimentary ticket to return in 2021. This “Explore Today, Explore Tomorrow” package will be $29.99 for adults and $24.99 for children.
