Schulz Creative Associates. “On behalf of my entire family, I look forward to many more years of bringing joy of my father’s characters to the fans in Cedar Fair’s parks.”

In addition, an added five-year option, which is exercisable at Cedar Fair’s discretion, will bring the potential contract extension to 2030.

“The renewed relationship between Cedar Fair and Peanuts Worldwide allows both companies to develop and extend their brands, creating a more immersive experience for guests through meet-and-greets, live entertainment, merchandise and themed areas throughout the parks,” says Matt Ouimet, chief executive officer, Cedar Fair. “With more than half of our parks now offering a free pre-K season pass for children, our continued showcasing of the beloved Peanuts characters underscores our commitment to entertaining young families.”
