Guests will be limited on Superhero Day, so tickets should be reserved prior to arrival. You can purchase tickets here.
Event organizers say the meet-and-greets will be different than years prior due to COVID precautions. Instead of individual photos, families will be able to meet and take pictures will groups of characters on the Bissell Tree House Deck from a safe social distance.
Masks will be required for guests over the age of five while in line, but will not be required for photos.
