Coney Island and Sunlite Pool is closing on Dec. 31 to become a destination music venue.
The close will be effective immediately after the conclusion of Coney Island’s Nights of Lights holiday event.
Coney Island will be sold to Music & Event Management Inc., a subsidiary of the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra.
Coney Island has been operating since 1886. Sunlite Pool was added in 1925.
“We have been proud to provide a place where so many wonderful memories were created for families,” Coney Island said in a news release. “We thank the millions of patrons and employees from Cincinnati and surrounding neighborhoods. You made this a special place for all of us. But the time has come for this historic destination to offer new and different options for entertainment-seekers looking for fun and unique experiences.”
