(Hershey, Pa.) – A total of 15 shows will keep the Hersheypark theaters and midways busy this summer. From high-energy performances in the air-conditioned Chevrolet Music Box Theatre to an array of strolling musicians, Hersheypark entertainment provides a sweet addition to the Park’s collection of more than 65 rides and attractions. This summer, the Park proudly offers a new show starting every 15 minutes between the hours of noon and 8 p.m. every day from May 29 through August 28.
Also new this year, the talented performers from the Hersheypark resident productions will take their shows on the road and entertain guests throughout Hershey, including stops at The Hotel Hershey, Hershey Lodge, Hershey Highmeadow Campground, and Hershey Country Club.
In addition, the Hersheypark Summer Concert Series, sponsored by Arby’s, offers a line-up of stellar acts in the Amphitheatre every Sunday and on other select dates. These shows are seated first-come, first served and are included in the Park’s one-price admission. A list of the shows is attached.
Some of the Park’s most popular performers are the lovable Hershey’s Product Characters. The Hershey’s Bar, Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup and Hershey’s Kiss and many of their costumed-character pals are always at the Park, making new friends and posing for photos.
What follows is a summary of the resident entertainment that Hersheypark is offering this season:
