Knotts Boysenberry Festival 2022 has finally returned and we have all the juicy details along with a delicious first look at all the tasty bites and drinks for this year! Whether you’re craving fried chicken donuts or over-the-top funnel cakes, there is no shortage of amazing food this year.

If you’ve never been to the Boysenberry Festival at Knotts Berry Farm you can check out our coverage from previous years like the Taste of Boysenberry in 202l or the Knotts Berry Farm Boysenberry Festival 2020.

If you prefer video you can also catch me stuffing my face and giving commentary on our Knotts Boysenberry Festival 2022 Youtube video.

Knotts Boysenberry Festival 2022 will take place starting March 18th – April 24th, 2022

First, let’s talk about the tasting cards. Each year guests can purchase a tasting card giving them 6 tastings to over 25 different Boysenberry samplings located throughout the park. A tasting card is $50 and season pass holders will save $5 on their tasting cards. You can even use your tasting cards to redeem alcoholic beverages like the Boysenberry Beer and Berry Cider (my personal favorite).
