Height requirements for the rides are located on the park maps, which can be found in the Orlando or Kissimmee sections of the web site. How much does it cost if I'm not riding anything? Our Free Admission means that there is NO Cost to come in and watch others enjoying the rides. So if you are not riding, you are not paying. It is FREE! Do I need an armband if all I am doing is driving my child on the go-karts? If a child is not tall enough to drive themselves on a ride/go-kart, then someone over 18 may drive them IF the driver has either an Armband (54+) OR a Chauffeur Armband which is only permits you to drive a child and only drive a child on rides they could not do without an adult. The cost of a Chauffeur Armband is only $9.95. Is the arcade included in the armband? Because you can win prizes the more you play certain arcade games, we do not have any unlimited arcade. With our arcade you pay per game with a Fun-E-Card you purchase. Game prices vary from $.25 to $2.00. Is the SkyCoaster ride included in the armband? The SkyCoaster is a unique, one of a kind ride. To ride the SkyCoaster by yourself, it costs $40, BUT if you have already purchased an Armband, you may include the SkyCoaster for only an additional $20. What happens when it rains? Fun Spot has lots of options when it rains. First of all we can offer you a rain check, if you have had an Armband for less than 90 minutes. So you can go and come another day. OR keep your Armband and wait until the rain ends and return to the park to continue riding and racing. We are open until Midnight. OR ride in the rain. Many rides stay open in the rain. How heavy the rain is, and whether or not there is lightning will determine which rides remain open. If you choose to stay, get a poncho from us. We value price them to make it attractive for you to stay. Can I bring in my own food? We do allow you to bring in your own birthday Cake if you are having a birthday celebration. Other than that we ask for no outside food or drink in our park. We are free admission, it is easy to leave the park and return after eating. Of course, once you see our fun food options, we hope to tempt you into staying and recharging here. Can I leave and come back? With Free Admission you may come and go as often as you would like. Your armbands will be good until Midnight. So if you leave at 3 pm and want to return at 9 pm, as long as your Armbands are still on your arms there is no additional charge. How much is it for my baby? For anyone who is not doing the rides, we are a FREE admission park. We do not recommend our rides for any child under 24 months. If your two year old only wants to do one carousel ride, it is $3 a ride. Speak with a manager if your child needs you to ride with them on one of our pre-school rides. So your baby is free, but if your toddler chooses to ride then they are a customer. Where are the restrooms? This is our most common question. Please check the park maps or ask any employee. We know we need to answer that question often and in person. Fun Spot America Theme Parks Drone Policy All drones (Unmanned Aerial Systems) are prohibited at (in) all Fun Spot America Theme Parks.
