==History==
===Origins===
The park was an idea conceived as early as 1964 when [[Coney Island, Cincinnati, Ohio|Coney Island]], a popular park on the banks of the Ohio River {{convert|10|mi|km}} east of downtown Cincinnati, suffered from a major flood that submerged the area in over {{convert|14|ft|m}} of water. Although flooding was nothing new for the successful amusement park, limited space for expansion and parking was becoming just as much an obstacle. The Wachs family who owned and operated Coney Island decided it was time to relocate the park in order to stay competitive. In 1968 after actor [[Fess Parker]] announced plans to build a new theme park in Northern Kentucky, the need to finalize plans became more urgent. In July 1969 following several failed attempts to find a major financial partner, the Wachs sold Coney Island to the [[Taft Broadcasting Company]] (a business interested in promoting its recently acquired [[Hanna-Barbera]] division) for $6.5 million [[USD]]. Taft Broadcasting Co. then purchased {{convert|1600|acre|km2}}<ref name="kicentral"/> of land in [[Warren County, Ohio]] for $3.2 million to be used for the future site of the new park.

===Early history with Taft Broadcasting and KECO (1970-1992)===
[[File:Kings Island International Street.jpg|thumb|180px|View from the main entrance]]
Construction began on June 15, 1970 in what was then a part of [[Deerfield Township, Warren County, Ohio|Deerfield Township]]. Later that year a public contest was held to name the new park. The name "Kings Island" emerged the most popular for its recognition to pay heritage to local town and its predecessor park. "King" came from the neighboring town [[Kings Mills, Ohio]] where the park land was located before being annexed to Mason, Ohio. Kings Mills was named for the ammunition manufacture ''King Powder Company'' in which some of the building used to sit where the park is now located. "Island", came from the amusement park [[Coney Island, Cincinnati, Ohio|Coney Island]] which Kings Island was replacing as the top amusement park in the area.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://cincinnati.com/blogs/ourhistory/2011/10/16/kings-island-pays-ammo-factory-tribute/|title=Kings Island pays ammo factory tribute|last=Rohrer|first=Jim|publisher=http://cincinnati.com|accessdate=23 January 2012}}</ref> Most of the former park's rides were either relocated to Kings Island or demolished (it was set to close following the 1971 season but reopened permanently in 1973).<ref name="kicentral"/><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.coneyislandpark.com/history.php |title=Coney Island History |publisher=Coney Island |accessdate=2010-07-31}}</ref> Less than two years after breaking ground, Kings Island opened its gates for the first of several preview events on April 29, 1972 and officially opened to the public the following month on May 27. The site is located between [[I-71]] and the [[Little Miami River]] and remained in Deerfield Township until [[annexed]] into the city of Mason in 1997.

Early on, Kings Island was nationally promoted in two well-known [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]] [[situation comedy|sitcoms]]. Each filmed an episode on location at the park: ''[[The Partridge Family]]'' in 1972 and ''[[The Brady Bunch]]'' the following year in 1973. The Brady Bunch was produced by Paramount Studios, who just happened to be a large shareholder in the Taft Broadcasting Company.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://kicentral.com/history/brady.php |title=Brady Bunch at Kings Island |publisher=KingsIslandCentral.com |accessdate=2010-08-01}}</ref> In later years, Kings Island would change ownership several times. Taft sold its theme park division in 1984 for $167.5 million to [[Kings Entertainment Company]] (KECO), a company formed by senior executives and general managers of Taft's Amusement Park Group. Three parks were involved in the sale&nbsp;— Kings Island, [[Kings Dominion]], and [[Carowinds]]&nbsp;— along with a 20-percent stake in [[Canada's Wonderland]]. Only three years later in 1987, the chain of parks were sold again. [[American Financial Corporation]] led by [[Carl Lindner, Jr.|Carl Lindner]] purchased the parks for $150 million but allowed KECO to continue to managing operations under contract.<ref name="kicentral"/><ref name="timeline">{{cite web |url=http://www.visitkingsisland.com/public/news/media/history/timeline.cfm |title=Timeline: A History of Kings Island |publisher=Kings Island |accessdate=2010-08-01}}</ref> [[California's Great America]] was added to the lineup in 1989.

===Paramount Kings Island (1992-2006)===
[[File:Kings Island logo 1992.gif|thumb|180px|Kings Island logo from 1993-2003]]
In 1992, Kings Island and the rest of the parks under KECO were purchased by [[Gulf+Western#Paramount Communications Inc.|Paramount Communications Inc.]] for $400 million. Paramount formed a new division which was known as [[Paramount Parks]]. In addition, they bought out the remaining 80% stake in Canada's Wonderland in 1993 raising the total number of parks to five. That same year Paramount Parks began adding its themes which often were from hit movies released by the studio. [[Viacom (1971-2005)|Viacom]] entered the picture in 1994 and purchased Paramount Communications Inc. paving the way for [[Nickelodeon (TV channel)|Nickelodeon]] themes to be used throughout the parks. Kings Island saw the addition of Nickelodeon Splat City which evolved into Nickelodeon Central and eventually Nickelodeon Universe. When Viacom split into two companies in 2005 ([[Viacom]] and [[CBS Corporation]]), CBS inherited ownership of Paramount Parks and soon after in January 2006 announced they were interested in putting the theme parks up for sale.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.cbscorporation.com/news-article.php?id=41 |title=CBS Corporation To Sell Paramount Parks To Cedar Fair, L.p. For $1.24 Billion In Cash |publisher=CBS Corporation |date=May 22, 2006 |accessdate=2010-08-02}}</ref>

===The Cedar Fair era (2006-present)===
On June 30, 2006, [[Cedar Fair Entertainment Company|Cedar Fair Entertainment Co.]] took CBS up on their offer and made the purchase for approximately USD $1.24 billion.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.cedarfair.com/ir/press_releases/index.cfm?current_root=15&mode=story&story_id=77 |archiveurl=http://web.archive.org/web/20060728185503/http://www.cedarfair.com/ir/press_releases/index.cfm?current_root=15&mode=story&story_id=77 |archivedate=2006-07-28 |title=Cedar Fair, L.P. Completes Acquisition of the Paramount Parks |accessdate=2006-12-28 }}</ref> With this acquisition, Cedar Fair would own all three major amusement parks in [[Ohio]]: Paramount's Kings Island, [[Cedar Point]] and [[Geauga Lake's Wildwater Kingdom|Geauga Lake]] (purchased from Premier Parks in 2003). Kings Island would continue to use the Paramount branding through the end of the 2006 season. Cedar Fair began removing it from the park the following year from a number of attractions&nbsp;— rides, live shows and restaurants&nbsp;— that were based on [[Paramount Pictures]] and other [[Viacom (1986)|Viacom]] themes. Some popular examples of this include '''FACE/OFF''' changing to [[Invertigo (Kings Island)|Invertigo]], the '''Italian Job Stunt Track''' to [[Backlot Stunt Coaster]], '''Tomb Raider: The Ride''' to [[The Crypt (Kings Island)|The Crypt]], and '''Top Gun''' to [[Flight Deck (Kings Island)|Flight Deck]]. Nickelodeon's presence would remain in the park through 2009 until Cedar Fair completed work in the off-season to change the kids' area to the [[Peanuts]] theme.

In late 2009, the Mason City Council decided to put a measure on a 2010 ballot that would mandate a 3-percent ticket tax and a 5-percent parking tax at both Kings Island and [[The Beach Water Park|The Beach]] waterpark. Council member Tony Bradburn argued that it was necessary in order to generate enough revenue for the city to help pay for infrastructure improvements, as well as cover the costs of police and fire expenses.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.daytondailynews.com/news/dayton-news/ticket-tax-proposal-has-both-sides-lining-up-409138.html |title=Ticket tax proposal has both sides lining up |publisher=Dayton Daily News |date=November 20, 2009 |accessdate=2010-09-03}}</ref> This proposed tax hike was the center of debate for several months leading up to the vote, in which Kings Island actively encouraged the public to write, email and call Mason City Council representatives to express opposition to the tax.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.journal-news.com/news/hamilton-news/mason-to-consider-ticket-tax-next-week-on-attractions-like-kings-island-527833.html |title=Mason to consider ticket tax |publisher=JournalNews |date=February 3, 2010 |accessdate=2010-09-03}}</ref> On February 8, 2010, the Mason City Council voted against the tax increase overwhelmingly by a vote of 5-1.<ref>{{cite news |last=Callahan |first=Denise |url=http://www.daytondailynews.com/news/dayton-news/kings-island-ticket-tax-rejected-by-mason-city-council-536605.html |title=Kings Island ticket tax rejected by Mason City Council |work=Dayton Daily News |date=March 16, 2010 |accessdate=2010-05-18}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.wlwt.com/money/22498753/detail.html |title=Council Votes Against Kings Island Tax Hike |publisher=www.wlwt.com |date=February 8, 2010 |accessdate=2010-05-18}}</ref>

==Original attractions==
[[Image:Kings Island 1972.jpg|thumb|200px|[[Racer (Kings Island)|The Racer]] as it looked in 1975 with the defunct [[Ferris wheel#Double and triple wheels|Zodiac]] to the right]]
The central attraction at Kings Island is International Street featuring the Royal Fountain, a {{convert|600000|gal|m3|adj=mid|pool}} capable of shooting {{convert|10000|gal|m3}} of water into the air each minute,<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.visitkingsisland.com/public/news/media/history/trivia.cfm |title= Kings Island, Trivia |accessdate=2010-09-14}}</ref> and the signature Eiffel Tower, a 1/3 scale replica of the [[Eiffel Tower|original]] which offers a view of the entire park to its guests. Also located here is the Grand Carousel, Kings Island Theater, and a variety of restaurants and souvenir shops.

Another original attraction is [[Racer (Kings Island)|The Racer]], a wooden roller coaster consisting of two trains that race each other side-by-side on identical tracks. Designed by legendary designer [[John C. Allen]], The Racer is recognized as being an integral part of the roller coaster renaissance of the 1970s. On June 18, 2007 [[American Coaster Enthusiasts]] (ACE) awarded it the Roller Coaster Landmark plaque.<ref>[[:Image:Racer (Kings Island) ACE Coaster.jpg]]</ref>

Other roller coasters present at the opening in 1972 were the Bavarian Beetle, a small steel coaster brought over from Coney Island, and a new junior wooden coaster in the [[Hanna–Barbera theme parks|Happy Land of Hanna-Barbera]] originally named [[Woodstock Express (Kings Island)|Scooby-Doo]].

Additional attractions present on opening day were Haley's Comet, Kings Mill Log Flume, Les Taxis, Grand Carousel, Der Spinning Keggers, Sky Ride, Enchanted Voyage, Marathon Turnpike, Scrambler, Flying Scooters, Winnie Witch's Spinning Cauldrons, Kings Island and Miami Valley Railroad, Monster, and The Rotor.

===Action Zone===
Action Zone opened in 1999 as a movie stunt set featuring a water tower as the centerpiece. The water tower was originally part of a skit with stunts and special effects. The skit was meant to resemble a live movie set with a director and stunt performers. The performance would open with the stunt crew on a tower coming under heavy gunfire and escaping on a zip line, with the final performer falling as the tower was exploding.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9lKyLuJwjWk |title=Kings Island Media Day 1999 |date=June 4, 2009 |accessdate=30 January 2012}}</ref>

The area originally opened in 1974 as ''[[Lion Country Safari#Cincinnati, Ohio|Lion Country Safari]]'', but was soon changed to ''Wild Animal Habitat''. In 1994, Paramount decided to rename the area to ''Adventure Village''. Then in 1999 following the first of a two-year area expansion, Adventure Village was renamed ''Action Zone''. The area features three roller coasters, three thrill rides, and two family rides.

The area was originally named ''Coney Island'' when it opened with the park in 1972, named after the park's predecessor, [[Coney Island, Cincinnati, Ohio|Coney Island]], which was scheduled to close permanently following the 1971 season. However, when it reopened less than two years later, Kings Island decided to rename the park's section to ''Old Coney''. The area received its current name, ''Coney Mall'', in 1986. It is set to a carnival theme with many classic [[flat ride]]s, game booths, arcades, and food stands. The area features five roller coasters, one thrill ride, and five family rides.

{{Main| Planet Snoopy}}
[[File:Fairly Odd Coaster overhead.jpg|thumb|200px|Joe Cool's Dodgem School in front of Woodstock Express]]
The area initially opened with the park in 1972 as ''[[Hanna-Barbera theme parks|The Happy Land of Hanna-Barbera]]'' and was later shortened to ''Hanna-Barbera Land''. The upper part that borders Rivertown saw the addition of a kids' play area, stage, and water attraction in 1995 and was renamed ''Nickelodeon Splat City''. In 2001, Kings Mills Log Flume became The Wild Thornberrys River Adventure and Rugrats Runaway [[Reptar]] roller coaster was introduced. The expansion of this area into the lower part of Rivertown became known as ''[[Nickelodeon Central]]''. At the start of the 2006 season, when Cedar Fair purchased the rights to the park the rights to the park from Paramount, the rest of the Hanna-Barbera Land was gradually converted as well and was renamed "Nickelodeon Universe".<ref name="timeline"/> Nickelodeon-themed elements remained in the park until 2010 when Nickelodeon Universe was rethemed and renamed ''[[Planet Snoopy]]'' based on the popular comic strip ''[[Peanuts]]''.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.visitkingsisland.com/public/park/rides/planet_snoopy/index.cfm |title=PLANET SNOOPY |publisher=www.visitkingsisland.com |accessdate=2011-06-06}}</ref>

Planet Snoopy contains many rides intended for smaller children, though it also includes two roller coasters, a [[Disk'O|skater coaster]], and a [[log flume (attraction)|log flume]] ride. [[Amusement Today]] has awarded Kings Island with the [[Golden Ticket Awards|Golden Ticket Award]] for the Best Kids' Area in the World for the past eleven years.<ref name="GoldenTicket"/>

1981: The park introduces [[The Bat (Kings Island)|The Bat]] generally accepted as the world's first [[suspended roller coaster]]. However, plagued with mechanical problems and a substantial amount of downtime, The Bat was removed just three years later in 1984.

1984: [[King Cobra (Kings Island)|King Cobra]] is released. It was the first roller coaster in the world to be designed from the ground-up as a stand-up coaster, even though other coasters prior to its release had been converted to stand-up designs. King Cobra was dismantled and put up for sale in 2002 when downtime and maintenance proved to be too expensive.

1987: The [[Vortex (Kings Island)|Vortex]] is added to the park and briefly set a new record with six inversions.

1989: ''WaterWorks'' debuts as a family water park featuring a wave pool, water slides, and other attractions.

1999: Kings Island's "Adventure Village" area begins the first of a two-year expansion to re-energize the area. Renamed ''Paramount Action Zone'', the area is completely re-themed as a brightly colored movie studio backlot. Two new rides, [[Invertigo (Kings Island)|FACE/OFF]] and [[Drop Tower: Scream Zone|Drop Zone: Stunt Tower]], open with the latter setting a new record for the world's tallest gyro drop (Sister park [[Kings Dominion]] released a version in 2003 that had a longer drop but was shorter in height).

2000: For the second year of the ''Paramount Action Zone'' two-year expansion, [[Son of Beast]] opened setting records as the world's tallest, fastest, and only-looping wooden roller coaster. The ride is billed as a sequel to Kings Island's own legendary roller coaster, [[The Beast (roller coaster)|The Beast]]. In October 2000, Kings Island debuted ''FearFest'' which runs annually from late September through October (later renamed to [[Kings Island#Halloween Haunt|Halloween Haunt]]).

2002: [[The Crypt (Kings Island)|Tomb Raider: The Ride]] opens at Kings Island using an unorthodox marketing approach. The vehicle is by design concealed from view even as guests are being seated. Opening-day riders did not know what was going to happen as the ride started. Under the hood, the ride is based on a typical [[Top Spin (ride)|top spin]] model ride, except that this version is the world's first Giant variation holding nearly twice as many riders. In addition, the ride operates indoors synchronized to a composed musical score, lasers, water effects, fog, and theatrical lighting.

2005: Kings Island opens [[Backlot Stunt Coaster|Italian Job: Stunt Track]], a roller coaster that primarily focused on special effects to tie in with the film [[The Italian Job (2003 film)|The Italian Job]] (sister park [[Canada's Wonderland]] also opened one the same year).

2007: Kings Island unveils [[Firehawk (roller coaster)|Firehawk]], a [[Vekoma]] [[flying roller coaster|flying Dutchman]].

Its colors were also changed from neon green with dark gray supports to red with steel gray supports.

[[Image:Diamondback-030609-225.jpg|thumb|230px|Diamondback spashdown]]
2009: A [[Bolliger & Mabillard]] [[Steel roller coaster|steel]] [[hypercoaster]] called [[Diamondback (roller coaster)|Diamondback]] opens in place of the former Swan Lake. It is the park's first steel hypercoaster. On July 22, 2008 dark red track sections were delivered to the park and set on site of the construction.

On August 6, 2008 the park officially announced the new ride.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.kidiamondback.com |title=Diamondback &#124; Fast And Full Of Venom &#124; Kings Island |publisher=Kidiamondback.com |date= |accessdate=2008-11-24}}</ref>

2010: [[Planet Snoopy]] opens in place of the Nickelodeon Universe kids area. The Nickelodeon theme and characters including Hanna-Barbera's Scooby-Doo are completely removed. This change marked the first time since the park's debut in 1972 that [[Scooby-Doo]] was not present in the park.

2011: [[WindSeeker]], a tower swinger ride manufactured by [[Mondial (amusement ride manufacturer)|Mondial]], is added to the Coney Mall next to the Vortex.
