Playland…Entertaining Families Since 1928
Playland in Rye is Westchester County and the country’s first planned amusement park. Designated a National Historic Landmark in 1987, Playland has entertained millions of visitors for generations. Its charm and amusements hearken back to the early days of the 20^th century.  It is situated on Long Island Sound and is the most visited Westchester County Park by residents and non-residents.

Preserving and Upgrading for the Future
Westchester County has been dedicated to preserving Playland and its wonderful Art Deco buildings, historic rides and infrastructure. These projects have been necessary to move Playland into the 21^st century while preserving its charm and integrity. From time to time, we need your help to guide the future of Playland. 

Keeping Playland Here for Generations to Come
With today’s expectations set by the larger amusement parks, it’s more important than ever to preserve Playland and keep it a Westchester County Park for generations to come. We need you to show your support.

We need your support
Many of Playland’s capital projects cost millions of dollars. It is a challenge to compete for capital dollars in a county as large and complex as Westchester. For this reason, periodically we may ask you to join us in advocating your support of Playland for such projects as the rebuilding of the famous Art Deco columns and colonnades that are synonymous with the Playland experience.

From time to time, there has been a debate about the wisdom of Westchester County operating an amusement park. When this debate arises, we would like to be able to call on you to support the future of Playland. We want Playland to remain open and continue to be a Westchester County Park for generations to come.
