Do You Need A Special Ticket For Knott's Scary Farm?
Knott's Scary Farm is a separately ticket event that is not included in general theme park admission.
This means if you buy a general admission ticket to Knott's Berry Farm, you will not be able to access Knott's Scary Farm.
You need a ticket that explicitly states it allows access to Knott's Scary Farm - if you do not buy a Knott's Scary Farm event ticket, then you most likely do not have access to Scary Farm.
A Knott's Berry Farm Season Pass also won't be valid for access to Knott's Scary Farm.
What Types Of Tickets Are Available For Knott's Scary Farm?
Knott's Scary Farm has two different types of tickets available for purchase:
- Single Day General Admission
- Scary Farm Pass
The Single Day General Admission Scary Farm ticket is quite straightforward - this ticket will give you access to Knott's Scary Farm for one day.
General Admission tickets are date-specific meaning you must use the ticket on the day you select when purchasing the ticket. You cannot purchase a Scary Farm ticket and just show up on any day - the ticket will only be valid for the day you select!
The Scary Farm Pass is basically an all-access pass to Knott's Scary Farm allowing you to go to Scary Farm every single event day.
That's right... there are no restrictions to how many times you can use the Scary Farm Pass during the event year.
If you're interested in attending Knott's Scary Farm more than once then the Scary Farm Pass is a fantastic deal and a no-brainer to purchase!
You'll get your money's worth with the Scary Farm Pass with just two visits!
NOTE: Parking is not included with the Single Day General Admission or Scary Farm Pass and must be purchased separately.

Scary Farm tickets can be purchased at the ticket booths directly in front of the main entrance gates.

Last, but not least, is the ability to purchase your ticket from a Knott's Berry Farm Authorized Ticket Seller (like us at Theme Park Center)!
Authorized Ticket Sellers are companies that are permitted by Knott's Berry Farm to sell their tickets.
These companies are given special prices and must market and sell the tickets on their own as part of their partnership with Knott's.
Many Authorized Ticket Sellers will carry Scary Farm tickets at a slight discount to the prices you'll find buying directly from Knott.'s.
Tickets from Authorized Ticket Sellers are always authentic as they have an official partnership with Knott's - never purchase your tickets from a company that isn't a Knott's Authorized Ticket Seller!
