Hershey’s Chocolate World is turning up the summer fun as the U.S. celebrates its 250th birthday. The iconic Pennsylvania attraction is ringing in the season with a new family trolley, a refreshed classic Chocolate Tour Ride, and an all-new Summer Bonus Bundle packed with treats and experiences.
Visitors can take a ride through history and chocolate with the revamped Great American Chocolate Bar Tour Ride. The attraction now features an Americana-themed overlay, updated décor, and a reimagined version of its original theme song.
Meanwhile, the Summer Family Trolley is making its first appearance in two decades, offering guests a charming journey through Milton Hershey’s story, complete with sing-alongs, memorable characters, and sweet surprises.
Foodies and chocolate fans are also in for a treat. Seasonal sips like a Bubble Yum-inspired milkshake and Hershey’s Nuggets espresso shake join new desserts such as s’mores pie, Red White and Berry parfaits, and Hershey’s-inspired cheesecake.
For families looking to do it all, the Summer Bonus Bundle provides access to Create Your Own Candy Bar, Hershey’s Great Candy Expedition, Hershey’s Unwrapped, and a treat voucher at a 30% saving.
Beyond rides and indulgence, Hershey’s is joining Pennsylvania’s Bells Across PA program with a custom Liberty Bell celebrating the state’s heritage, tourism, and agricultural roots. Guests can also experience Breakfast with Hersh and Friends, a morning of character meet-and-greets, parades, and exclusive early access shopping.
Hershey’s Chocolate World is aiming to be the ultimate pit stop for families this summer, bringing nostalgia, chocolate, and Americana together in a season full of sweet adventures.
