Inclement Weather

During extreme heat or cold, we may make the decision to close for the safety of our guests and employees. Tickets may be redeemed for a future date. Please stay tuned to social media for weather updates and park closures.
Equipment Safety
Safety at Dig World is our top priority. Customers get the rare opportunity to operate REAL Caterpillar machinery, so we have put measures in place to ensure everyone’s safety. (1) Seatbelts are required before any machine operation can occur. (2) Drivable machines have been modified to limit speed. (3) Hydraulic limitations reduce total movement of other machines.
Visit Our Gift Shop!
Don’t forget to visit our Gift Shop as you exit the park! Cool down in the summer (or warm up in the cooler months), and grab a snack for the road or Dig World gear to take home. T-shirts, hats, toys, and more are available for in-store purchase.

Why does everyone entering the park need a ticket even if they are not participating?
Entering the park takes up capacity and our ability to let other people into the park. We keep the headcount low to ensure the lines are as manageable as possible. We are also required to insure every guest entering the park which requires a ticket. We also hope everyone will participate!
