Notice to Parents and Guardians: Teens/Children

Parents or guardians are responsible for the behavior of their minor children. Appropriate behavior and supervision are the responsibility of the parent/guardian and is always expected. We strongly recommend that minors (under 18) be accompanied by an adult. The park does not assume any responsibility or liability for unattended minors. Parents/guardians may be held legally liable for all acts of the children under their care.

Chaperone Policy

The safety of our guests and associates remains a top priority at Kings Dominion. As part of our ongoing commitment to maintaining a safe, family‑friendly environment. This policy is enforced daily beginning at Park Opening, and the park reserves the right to implement it earlier as operational needs require. Guests who fail to comply with this policy may be subject to removal from the park and any applicable actions permitted under the law.

All guests 17 years of age or younger must be accompanied by a parent, guardian, or chaperone age 21 or older for entry into Kings Dominion and must remain accompanied throughout the duration of their visit. This policy is enforced daily beginning at Park Opening, and the park reserves the right to implement it earlier as operational needs require.

A valid government‑issued photo ID with date of birth is required for all chaperones at the time of entry. One (1) chaperone may accompany no more than five (5) guests ages 17 or younger. Chaperones must enter the park with their group and remain with their group for the duration of their visit.

Any guest 17 years old or younger found inside the park without a qualifying chaperone when the policy is active will be immediately subject to removal from the park. This requirement applies to all guests, including all Season Pass and Membership holders.

Notice: Kings Dominion Security personnel utilize both surveillance cameras and body‑worn cameras as part of our comprehensive security program. We appreciate your cooperation and partnership in helping us maintain a safe, enjoyable experience for all guests.
