Six Flags Parks are starting to update their websites with Fright Fest info. Looks like some parks are doing a lot of new "Scare Zones" while others are rolling out new mazes. The biggest influx of new stuff seems to be at Six Flags Over Georgia which has a LOT of new Scare Zones.

There is no info up on the Six Flags Mexico or LaRonde sites yet, we will update when more info is available. Today we're having a bit of fun and each sharing our Blue Sky plans for the next 5 years at Six Flags Magic Mountain. If you all enjoy these we'll do them for more parks in the future. The plan is to have fun with these, speculate on what we think may be coming but also some out there ideas. Enjoy and share your thoughts. RD and Matt will eventually be adding their predictions to this article so we'll be sure to re-post once we have theirs. Keep in mind, these are only "predictions" and none of them are probably ever going to happen. =) Update: We've received some GREAT reader predictions on our Facebook page, so we've decided to add them below. If you have any predictions, feel free to add them. 2016Gregg: I'm going to start off kind of safe with 2016 as the park just added Twisted Colossus this year. 2016 is the parks 45th anniversary so I think the park will be concentrating a little bit on history while restoring some classic attractions. Anybody thinking that the Sky Tower will be making a comeback in 2016 (or ever) needs to re-think things.
Reader Predictions: Chris: Revolution Refurb// Cyclone Bay Retheme + Apocalypse retrack Lucio: New Flat Ride A.J.: Refurbish Apocalypse and Revolution, retheme Cyclone Bay, and add 1-2 new flats 2017Gregg: 2017 is going to be another "off" year as the park gears up for a huge 2018 (see below). While many will be expecting Justice League in the park for 2016 or 2017, I fully believe the ride will show up at Discovery Kingdom before it does at SFMM.
Reader Predictions: Chris: Movie District retheme/ Justice League: BFM in old Action Theater Lucio: Family Coaster A.J.: Remove Green Lantern and Tidal Wave for Justice League dark ride, Aquaman-themed Tsunami Soaker, and a connecting walkway 2018Gregg: 2018 is going to be interesting as by this time it would be 3 years since the park added a new coaster. So it's time for some extreme Blue Sky plans.
Reader Predictions: Chris: Hurricane Harbor addition + new coaster (Not a wing rider, something smaller... maybe another woodie?) Lucio: Mega Loop A.J.: New mid-sized coaster 2019Gregg: 2019 the park will concentrate back on family attractions
Reader Predictions: Chris: General Improvements Lucio: 3D Dark Ride A.J.: Samurai Summit refurbishment 2020Gregg: Finally, the year coaster fans have been waiting for since, well, forever:
Reader Predictions: Chris: Samurai Summit refurb, new flats Lucio: World's Largest SkyScreamer A.J.: General improvements for SFMM, HydroMagnetic Rocket for SFHH And that will lead us into 2021 and the parks 50th Anniversary. But that's going to be a totally separate article and a LONG time down the road. Yesterday we were up in the area so we decided to take a quick trip to SFMM to see if there was anything worth updating you on, especially considering that the next time we'll get back to the park will probably be early September (busy August coming up). There are a couple of things going on at the park but really, it's the middle of the summer so this will be a pretty short and sweet update. As we reported last week, all Six Flags parks have banned selfie sticks. Didn't catch anybody getting turned away at the bag check, but did see somebody try and bring a full ice chest in. Lol. Flags were at half staff You can play Street Fighter 5 at the park right now. Lex Luthor Drop of Doom is closed, we've heard some conflicting reports as to why it's closed, but nothing confirmed. Looks like some wood is being replaced on Apocalypse, click the picture below to see a larger version. And that's about it for what's going on at the park. We are working on our "five year park plan" right now so that should be up at some point this week. Also, be sure to check out the details for our first ever event "Mountain Madness" that will be held on October 2. We're still waiting for the link for ticket purchases, as soon as we have it we'll be sure to post it. Lastly, be sure you are following us on Social Media as we'll be at ScareLA on August 8 and 9, D23 on August 15 and Sea World San Diego on August 22. |
