"The Cyclone takes center stage on Sunday, turning 99 this year and still rattling the boardwalk like it owns the place. The first 99 riders that day will score a free ride and a classic egg cream while supplies last."
"Opening weekends at Luna Park have long doubled as Donation Day events, with proceeds supporting neighborhood nonprofits and youth programs. Local reporting has highlighted recent contributions to groups including the Coney Island Sharks and Children of Promise."
Luna Park in Coney Island reopens for the 2026 season on March 28, offering classic rides and boardwalk snacks. The Cyclone coaster celebrates its 99th birthday with special promotions for the first 99 riders. Admission is free, with rides starting at $4. The park will operate daily during spring break in mid-April, offering wristbands and pay-per-ride options. Proceeds from opening weekend support local charities, emphasizing the park's commitment to community engagement and its historical significance.
