Just in time for summer, Coney Island is adding a slew of new attractions and preparing to reopen for the 2023 season.

Coney Island will expand its dry land attractions this year. The park will add four new pickleball courts, disc golf and a brand new Sports Alley, filled with activities and a combination of sports and games. Its existing attractions: Storybook Paddleboats and Cincy Mini-Golf, will also reopen and remain free to passholders and guests from 1-6 p.m. on the weekends.

Ready to plan your visit to Coney Island this year? Here's what you need to know.

Coney Island will open for the 2023 season on May 27.

Here's a look at what's in Sports Alley:

Soccer Pool: A mashup of soccer and billiards, where players compete on a large, ground-level billiard table and kick a white soccer cue ball to knock their teams' colored balls into side pockets.

Street Curling: Players will slide heavy stones across a synthetic surface toward a target to win points.

Fowling: Three lanes will be available in this combination of bowling and football where players will throw a football to knock down bowling pins.

Equipment rental for all three activities is free by leaving an ID or season pass with an attendant.

New this year are the four pickleball courts, which are currently under construction. Once open, court rentals will be available hourly at Coney Island's Guest Services windows for $20 an hour from 10 a.m. to closing time at 8 p.m. Discounts are available for Adventure Passholders. The park hasn't released an opening date for the courts.

Coney Island also has a four-hole practice disc golf course. Guests can bring their own discs, and a limited number of discs will be available for free.

Coney Island offers daily tickets and season passes.
