The Return Of Knott’s Berry Farm’s Boysenberry Festival!

As a kid the Boysenberry Festival was a joyous time for me heading to Knott’s Berry Farm. Now the festival returns on March 10, 2023 through April 16, 2023, and during the festival you can enjoy the delicious berry themed treats associated with the proprietary boysenberry of Knott’s Berry Farm.

Boysenberry was created in 1923 by Rudolph Boysen when he cross breed raspberries and blackberries. The berry was then given to Walter Knott for him to commercially develop.

The boysenberry is a delicious choice to include in jams, syrups, pies, tarts, or a delicious beverage, like the one you can acquire in the park year round. The festival features more than three dozen new boysenberry food and drink creations. If food isn’t your focus, then you can sink your teeth into their new selections of entertainment and fun activities.

Some of the dishes include:

  • Cauliflower bites with a boysenberry curry drizzle.
  • Spicy crab surimi sushi burrito, with avocado, lettuce, crispy onions, sesame and unagi sauce, wrapped in nori with a boysenberry sweet chili sauce.
  • Sweet corn nuggets with boysenberry honey.
  • Boysenberry bread pudding.
  • Boysenberry waffle topped with whipped cream and boysenberry maple syrup.
  • To take advantage of the festival you will need to purchase a tasting card which will allow you to sample six of the items, for the price of $55 or purchase the items from each provider a la carte.

    If you haven’t tried boysenberry before, or are already a huge fan of it, then I highly recommend you stop by the Boysenberry Festival at Knott’s Berry Farm.
