Knott’s Berry Farm’s Fiesta Village Update
The summer of 2023 brought a new look to the Fiesta Village region of Knott’s Berry Farm. The renovations added bright colors to the walkways, plus a newly landscaped alebrije garden.
The garden features spirit animal statues throughout the area. You can find out more about the alebrijes by reading the back of their corresponding pins, available for sale in Fiesta Village.
Did you know the Knott’s alebrijes have their own names? They are Cliofas, Cornelia, Filemon, Marimar, Saltina, and Torcuato.
Plus, an arts & crafts station has been set up near Hat Dance with complementary coloring sheets.
The update to Fiesta Village also includes new dining destinations. The dining options in Fiesta Village include:
- Casa California
- Cantina del Sur
- Baja Taqueria
- Papas Mexicanas
The updates also included new shopping locations and entertainment. We loved the sounds of Mariachi music and storytellers, plus traditional Folklorico dancing. Plus, you may catch the PEANUTS characters in themed costumes.
