Get ready for some extra fun in the sun, folks. Pullen Park Amusements is hitting the spring season hard with longer operational hours starting March 21. That's right, every day from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., you can hop on that iconic train (chugging along till the sun dips below the horizon) or take a whirl on the carousel.

Now isn't that just peachy for those who've got the nine-to-five blues or for the kiddos itching to ditch the school bag and dive into some playtime—do note, the park's train will be putting the brakes on as sunset kisses Raleigh's skyline. And if you're stomach's making more noise than the park's attractions, the Pullen Cafe will be at your service, so a decent nosh is a given as you unwind with a bit of after-hours leisure.

Furthermore, it seems Pullen Park is also kicking it up a notch on Friday nights. "Plus, Friday nights may bring a little extra magic with entertainment and activities to kick off the weekend," according to the park's latest announcement on the City of Raleigh website. This could be exactly what you need to wrap up your week with a dose of enchantment—or at least, with significantly more gusto than your average night in.
