Presented by Charles Phoenix

A Celebration of the World’s Most Famous Farm! Start jamming the berries, frying the chicken and panning for gold. Knotts Berry Farmland is Charles Phoenix’s BIG RETRO slide show extravaganza celebrating Walter and Cordelia Knott’s landmark berry farm and chicken dinner restaurant that blossomed into Ghost Town, America’s first theme park. Experience the backstory and glory of the bountiful farm’s evolution from the berry beginnings, the worth-waiting-in-line-for fried chicken served with all the trimmings, Ghost Town’s legendary attractions, characters, curiosities, saloons, shows, shops, and the big, juicy boysenberry that inspired it all! Your Knott’s Berry Farm lovin’ spirit will soar like never before.
