Dorney Park Welcomes You Back, Safely
The wait is almost over! When Dorney Park opens to the general public on May 22, the Antique Carousel will give rides for its 100th year, guests will line up for their first funnel cake of the season and kids will once again be able to meet up with their favorite Beagle, Snoopy.
We want your visit to Dorney Park & Wildwater Kingdom to be AMAZING and for you to feel safe, so we have developed an extensive coronavirus opening plan for the 2021 season.

Dorney Park’s live shows are fun for the whole family proving that rides aren’t the only fun activities at Dorney Park.
Many of our safety measures remain the same as last season, but here are some of the differences you’ll notice:
Changes from Last Season
- Wildwater Kingdom Water Park will open on May 29, 2021. Both Season Passholders and Single Day Ticketholders need reservations for Wildwater Kingdom.
- Single Day Ticketholders that purchased prior to May 3, 2021 will only need to make a reservation to visit Wildwater Kingdom.
- Season Passholders may only have up to two active Wildwater Reservations at one time. Once visited, Season Passholders can make another active reservation.
- A reservation is not required to visit only Dorney Park.
- The health screen questionnaire will be conducted by associates at the park entrances and will not be through the Dorney Park mobile app.
- Temperature checks for guests have been discontinued at the front gate.
- There will be no limitations to ride capacity for most rides. Face coverings are required on Dorney Park rides.
- A face covering is required for all guests over the age of 2. A face covering is always required except while in a RelaxZone, while dining at a table or bench, while waiting in line for water attractions or when experiencing water attractions or pools.
In addition to these changes, several measures remain in place from last season. More details on each of these measures are available in the updated Welcoming You Back section of our website.

Lehigh Invaded with Scary-good whiskies this Halloween: J. Mattingly 1845 Welcomes Fall with New Whiskey Offerings
Scary-good whiskies this Halloween: J. Mattingly 1845 Welcomes Fall with New Whiskey Offerings
J. Mattingly 1845 Distillery is debuting scary-good whiskies this fall, with its first fall spiced Bourbon 31 Blended Bourbon and the ability to customize your own whiskey for your Halloween festivities through its J. Mattingly 1845 craft your bottle program.
Screenshot
Bourbon 31 Blended Bourbon is a play on the brand’s Bourbon 30 Bourbon brand and this limited-edition release was created for the Halloween season.
Bourbon 31 is a blend of three whiskies which have all undergone J. Mattingly 1845’s Double Staving™ process and the blend consists of 51 percent Bourbon, 29 percent Light Whiskey and 20 percent Rye Whiskey. Double Staving is a proprietary process used by J. Mattingly 1845 Distillery that gives the whiskey inside the barrels additional surface exposure to charred barrel staves to impart more flavor and color.
The Double Staved Classic Bourbon used in this blend has just scored a 96 from famed Whiskey Bible author Jim Murray.
The Bourbon 31 Blended Bourbon was created by J. Mattingly 1845’s team of expert blenders to reflect the flavors typically associated with fall. “When we blended these three whiskies, we were looking for a flavor profile that reflects flavors typically associated with fall, such as pumpkin and cinnamon while matching the light-hearted fun we’re having by changing the brand name from Bourbon 30 to Bourbon 31 to celebrate the Halloween season,” said Harry Richart, president, J. Mattingly 1845 Distillery.
Tasting notes for this bourbon describe it as having a nose of nutmeg, cinnamon, vanilla and walnut, with the flavors of brown sugar, cinnamon, and fall baking spices on the palate. On the finish, pumpkin bread, baker’s chocolate and seasoned oak are prevalent.
Bourbon 31 is available online and at the J. Mattingly 1845 Distillery in Frankfort, KY. Suggested retail pricing is $60 for a 750 mL and it is 98 proof.
J. Mattingly 1845 Custom Whiskey Program is the “Choose Your Own Adventure” of the whiskey world by allowing the buyer to choose between double staved™ bourbon, light whiskey or rye whiskey recipes, select their bottle shape, customize their own label, and even choose their own wax color from every color of the rainbow! This program is available online and in person at the Distillery and can result in some frighteningly fun labels and Halloween-themed wax colors. Imagine expressing your innermost devilish (or angelic) thoughts on the bourbon bottle you give your favorite boo.
Pricing for the custom bottles start at $120 for a 750 mL bottle and shipping is available to 46 states.
About J. Mattingly 1845 Distillery

In 2010 Jeff Mattingly took up the family mantle and started his own craft bourbon business. Today, Jeff’s son Cameron has joined the team as Vice President of Production, continuing the legacy into the latest generation for J. Mattingly Distillery 1845 in Frankfort, Kentucky.

Brubeck Brothers Quartet – A Tribute to Dave Brubeck at Allentown’s Miller Symphony Hall January 21
Brubeck Brothers Quartet – A Tribute to Dave Brubeck – at Allentown’s Miller Symphony Hall January 21
Ring in the new year with the Brubeck Brothers – Chris and Dan – along with the other members of their quartet, as they join the Allentown Symphony to play the classics of their father Dave Brubeck. “Take 5” and more.

Brubeck Brothers Quartet
Chris Brubeck bass, trombone, composer
Dan Brubeck drums
Mike DeMicco guitar
Chuck Lamb pianoChris and Dan Brubeck have been making music together practically all their lives. Drummer Dan and bassist, trombonist, and composer Chris cut their first record together in 1966—nearly a half century ago. They’ve subsequently played a variety of styles in a number of different groups, as well as with their father, jazz giant Dave Brubeck, and with their own Brubeck Brothers Quartet. With Dan and Chris as the foundation, guitarist Mike DeMicco and pianist Chuck Lamb, complete this dynamic quartet.
They perform at concert series, colleges, and jazz festivals across North America and Europe including the Newport, Detroit, Montreal, Playboy/Hollywood Bowl, and Monterey Jazz Festivals. The Quartet’s last cd, LifeTimes was a hit on the Jazz Week radio chart where it made the Top Ten list as one of the most played jazz recordings of the year.
These versatile musicians also collaborate with orchestras all across the U.S. as well as internationally, including performing with the Singapore Chinese Orchestra and the Russian National Orchestra. With Chris Brubeck’s compositions as a vehicle, the BBQ has joined with chamber groups to collaborate with musicians from the St. Paul Chamber Orchestra, the Philadelphia Orchestra and the Russian National Symphony Orchestra.
Although the Quartet’s style is rooted in “straight-ahead” jazz, their concerts reveal an inherent ability to explore and play odd time signatures while naturally integrating the influences of funk, blues and world music. The group’s creativity, technique and improvisation can be heard in their uncompromising music, which reflects their dedication to melody, rhythm, culture and the spontaneous spirit of jazz.
