Themeparks Tools (4)
list_destinations
List all theme park destinations (Disney, Universal, Six Flags, SeaWorld, etc.) and their parks. Use this first to discover the PARK entity id, then feed that id to get_wait_times / get_schedule / get_entity.
get_wait_times
Live theme park wait times — how long is the wait for an attraction right now. Returns standby and single-rider ride queue minutes plus operating status for every attraction in a park (e.g. Disney / Universal ride queues). Pass a PARK entity_id from list_destinations.
get_schedule
Park operating hours — opening and closing times for a theme park over the coming weeks. Pass a PARK entity_id from list_destinations.
get_entity
Metadata for any theme park entity (destination, park, attraction, restaurant, or show): name, type, location, timezone, and parent ids.
Ready-to-Paste Client Configurations
Paste either (or both) of these JSON server blocks into your client config file (e.g. claude_desktop_config.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json).
Cycle Tracker is categorized under Developer Tools and uses a local stdio subprocess. In contrast, Themeparks belongs to Developer Tools using remote streaming HTTP/SSE transport. Select Cycle Tracker when you need capabilities focused on developer tools and Themeparks when you require tools for developer tools.
