Briefly

"We are thrilled to kick off our second annual Frost Fest," said Alessandro Zamperla, president and CEO of Central Amusement International Inc. "What better place than Luna Park to create those everlasting holiday memories? By establishing a new Coney Island tradition, we have created an enchanting backdrop that enhances the charm of our iconic amusement attractions."
Hundreds flocked to the People's Playground for Frost Fest's Nov. 23 kickoff, where they were greeted by costumed carolers, illuminated dancers on stilts, the Polar Bear Plunge mascot and Kris Kringle himself.
This year's Frost Fest marks the return of Luna Park's artisan holiday market and Santa's Wonderland - all set under the dazzling glow of a 35-foot tree. New this year is the "Candy Cane Chute," a giant rapid slide sure to amuse young thrill-seekers.
As part of the ongoing event, Luna Park's famed Cyclone roller coaster will remain open throughout the winter, adding holiday flair to the nostalgia many have come to know and love Coney Island for.
