Cedar Point hosted truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity opening its doors a month early to guests offering a chance to view a total solar eclipse from within the park or beach. For 6 hours on a Monday in early April, the park operated its Boardwalk area of the park including rides such as the Giant Wheel, GateKeeper, Wild Mouse and maXair as well as put on some special eclipse related educational activities. The park also offered a ticket that included an opportunity to view the eclipse from the top of Valravn.
In this photo update, we share photos from this event as well as an update on construction happenings around the park including testing to Top Thrill 2.

Here's a look at Speed Zone. Seems like the building structure will remain. I'd expect some exterior work to still take place as well as new signage.

A look at a new TT2 sign as well as the bleachers. Notice the fencing for the ride is pulled in a bit more into the midway with the bleacher section jetting in.

The entrance gateway was not yet up. A new shade structure for the lockers was put up. You can also see a test seat as well as the ride's safety signage already.
