Fiesta Village is a themed area at Knott's Berry Farm which pays tribute to California's Spanish and Mexican cultural influences.
History[]
Fiesta Village was opened in 1969 as the second themed area at the park, following Ghost Town.[1] The area was updated with the addition of new flat rides between the 1986 and 1987 seasons.[2] Fiesta Village was transformed further through major renovations for the 2023 season, though its centerpiece launch coaster, Montezooma's Revenge, still remains under refurbishment.[3]
