Happy 2026 Season Pass Sale Day Everybody! 

Now that most Six Flags parks have had their 2026 passes go on sale we're going to give you a full breakdown of the prices you can find at each park. Because they vary greatly! 

There are some solid reasons for the differences in price like the duration of the season, the local market, etc.. 

A price difference of $30-$40 for a pass is not unheard of, but we're seeing differences of $100 or more for what is essentially the same pass. It does make sense in a lot of cases, but it's jarring to see. 

Okay, let's start breaking it down.

A few notes: 

  • "Passes" vs "Memberships".
    • Legacy Cedar Fair Park Passes allow pay-in-full and payment options.
    • Legacy Six Flags parks are the only parks that offer Memberships.
    • Memberships are the only way to do payments if a legacy Six Flags park is your "home park" 
  • ​All Passes MUST be activated at the purchased park. 
  • Bring a Friend Tickets.
    • "Bring a Friend" tickets for "legacy" Cedar Fair parks are only valid at Cedar Fair Parks in 2025.
    • "Bring a Friend" tickets for "legacy" Six Flags parks are only valid at Six Flags Parks in 2025.
    • "Bring a Friend" tickets will be valid at all parks in 2026 (see below).

For this update we're just looking at prices for each park to help you decide where you should ​get your 2026 passes from. We also won't be looking at the waterpark only passes here. 

​We also tried to break all of this down in the video below. ​
