DOSWELL, Va. -- Kings Dominion is transforming itself into a year-round theme park. Park officials announced Tuesday that Kings Dominion will now be open "additional weekends" in January, February, and early March.

The added winter weekends, combined with summer hours and annual events such as Grand Carnivale, Halloween Haunt, and WinterFest means Kings Dominion will be open from January thru December.

“We’ve always wanted to find a way to extend our season to all 12 months," Bridgette Bywater, vice president and general manager, said.

Park officials said "weather conditions and scheduled maintenance will limit the operation of some park attractions," at various times throughout the year.
