While Hersheypark celebrates the sweet life at every turn, the new Pepsi Pop Star entertainment experience puts a new spotlight on theme park attractions. With this first of its kind immersive attraction, everyone can take center stage and turn their pop star dream into reality.

Theme park attractions are quite varied. While many people cannot resist the huge thrills, others prefer more interactive experiences. When a theme park can balance both of those arenas, everyone leaves wanting to come back for another visit.

The new Pepsi Pop Star at Hersheypark lets everyone’s inner rock star shine. Even if someone’s octave range is limited or rhythm isn’t part of their dance moves, the experience is the freedom to express themselves through music. Sometimes that celebration of enjoying the moment is the ultimate reward.

As Rachel Prowler, Sr. Manager of Marketing, PBNA North Division said, “For decades, music has been an integral part of Pepsi that our fans know and love from the Super Bowl Halftime Show to star-powered brand partnerships. With Pepsi Pop Star, we’re passing the star power to them by giving park guests the chance to be their unapologetic selves center stage.”

What can guests experience at Pepsi Pop Star?

For guests ready to get their groove on, the Pepsi Pop Star experience is 2,500 square feet of entertainment. In addition to limited edition Pepsi Pop Star cans and beverage refreshments, the interactive fun is a reason to step up to the stage.

The Dance Pods are a way for anyone to experience their moment of fame. Via private dance pods, guests can “book their free spot to record their dance performances.” As the customizable avatar hits the screen, everyone can imagine what it is really like to be that ultimate performer.

From Kane Brown to The Killers, there is a wide variety of musical genres available. After all, not just Left Shark from the Super Bowl halftime show deserves five minutes of fame.

For guests who prefer to share the spotlight, there is an opportunity to challenge others to the ultimate performance battle. Those impressive moves can be shared on social media for all to see.

Lastly, to bring a piece of the experience home, there is exclusive fan merchandise available. Just like that concert t-shirt that brings back all the memories, these items will be the reminder of that epic moment.
