Knott's Bear-y Tales: Return to the Fair is an interactive 4-D dark ride on the Boardwalk at Knott's Berry Farm in Buena Park, California. Built by Triotech with the park, it opened to the public on May 21, 2021, replacing Voyage to the Iron Reef.
The ride revives Knott's Bear-y Tales, a dark ride that operated in the same location from 1975 to 1986. Its story is set 34 years after the original: Boysen Bear and Girlsen Bear take their boysenberry pies to the county fair, and Crafty Coyote and his pups try to steal them. Riders use jelly blasters on their vehicles to recover the pies and compete for a high score, passing reimagined scenes such as the Boysenberry Pie Factory and Thunder Cave.
Riders must be at least 46 inches tall.
