Meeting Hershey characters, riding epic roller coasters and exploring unique museums are just a few of the many things to do in this sweet community.
Did you know Milton Hershey founded a successful caramel company (the Lancaster Caramel Company) before he ever mastered the art of chocolate making? That's just one of the many morsels of history you'll discover on a trip to Hershey, Pennsylvania, otherwise known as the Sweetest Place on Earth.
You'll also learn that Hershey used his wealth to build the town everyone knows today, with schools such as the Milton Hershey School for underprivileged children, a hotel (The Hotel Hershey, an award-winning property) and an amusement park called − you guessed it − Hersheypark.
Nearly 80 years after Hershey's passing in 1945, the town he built continues to blossom, with something new (and delicious) to explore each year. Read on to discover the best things to do in Hershey.

Hershey's Chocolate World
You haven't been to Hershey until you've taken the free Hershey's Chocolate Tour. The tour − an indoor ride in a Hershey's Kiss-shaped car − allows visitors to understand how Hershey's chocolate is made and enjoy a free chocolate bar at the end. Better still is the marketplace at Hershey's Chocolate World, where you can purchase Hershey's candy (including treats you don't typically find at your local food store); candy-themed souvenirs; and signature smoothies, milkshakes and pastries. You can also make a personalized treat at the Create Your Own Candy Bar station, solve a sweet mystery in the 4D Chocolate Movie and enjoy wine and chocolate or beer and chocolate pairings seasonally.

When planning to do anything near the Main St. of Hershey, please understand that due to the construction of that complex of eateries (including the Iron Hill Brewery), traffic downtown is horrendous and please be cautious of our Senior Citizens crossing the road at that intersection. Hershey has not planned well for this problem. We, locals will be staying away from downtown but it’s always been congested.
I’m a local and have visited several times recently (so I’m not staying away). The traffic doesn’t seem significantly worse in that area, though they should fix the light as turning left into the parking area is a challenge. The construction of the complex is over at this point, so no issues there either.
As expected, they are currently doing construction on the roadways through town to improve the traffic flow. The downtown eateries add a good selection of new and alternative places to eat while enjoying the downtown Hershey activities and are next door to the Hershey Museum and within walking distance to Hershey Theater, the entrance of Hersheypark and Chocolate World.
The Hershey Theatre is a historic venue for concerts, plays and entertainment. Beautiful place to see.
Each year during the first full week of October the Antique Automobile Club of America puts on its “Eastern Fall Meet” for four days in Hershey. This yearly event is perhaps the biggest and most significant collector car event in the United States if not the world!
You did not mention the golf course. It is exciting to hear the trains near by blowing their horns.

Hersheypark Announces Twizzlers Twisted Gravity Ride Coming Summer 2025
Tallest screamin’ swing in world leaves gravity behind only at hersheypark.
Hersheypark , the largest amusement park in Pennsylvania, today announced the details of its all-new 2025 Twizzlers Twisted Gravity attraction. This high-thrill pendulum attraction will be the tallest Screamin’ Swing in the world when it opens in summer 2025.
The one-minute and 10-second experience begins as riders of Hershey’s height category (48-54”) and above ascend 137 adrenaline-pumping feet, defy gravity at speeds reaching 68 miles per hour and experience multiple mind-bending zero G moments as they swing high above Spring Creek in The Hollow region of Hersheypark .
Manufactured by S&S Worldwide, the all-new Twizzlers -inspired adventure is the newest candy to join the iconic Hersheypark skyline. Guests will sit in one of four branded zones across two gondolas, featuring the Twizzlers Strawberry, Cherry, Hershey’s Chocolate and Black Licorice-flavored designs.
Hersheypark is the only place where guests can snap a selfie with a Twizzlers Character , measure as a Twizzlers height category and ride in a Twizzlers -themed train on Candymonium hypercoaster.
“We continue to invest in attraction experiences that leverage unique Hershey brands, so we are thrilled to add a Twizzlers -branded Screamin’ Swing to our unmatched ride portfolio next summer,” said Vikki Hultquist, Vice President of Hersheypark & Entertainment Operations. “ Twizzlers Twisted Gravity will provide our guests with the best of both worlds - the ultimate thrills and never-before-seen views of our Park’s beautiful 121 acres as they soar to a record-breaking height and leave gravity behind.”
Twizzlers Twisted Gravity will join more than 70 rides , a water park and a zoo included with admission as part of three parks in one. Following its summer 2025 debut, Twizzlers Twisted Gravity will be open for all four seasons, weather permitting.
