SIX FLAGS FIESTA TEXAS
San Antonio, Texas
Six Flags Theme Parks
Park News - (3/29/2026) It is worth mentioning that Six Flags Fiesta Texas and Six Flags over Texas have joined the growing list of parks within the chain to put an updated version of the Chaperone Policy into effect this week that will remain in effect throughout the Spring Break holiday and quite possibly, beyond. The main part of the update from previous versions is that this now prevents teens age 17 and under from visiting the parks without a chaperone age 21+. Previous versions of the policy set the age limit at 15 and under, essentially still allowing most of those able to drive to visit on their own, since they can drive themselves to work at that park at that age. So now… you may be able to drive and work at the park… but you still can’t visit as a guest on your own until you are 18.
2026 - Nothing is known at this point in time...
 2027 - Werewolf Gorge - (5/31/2026) Werewolf Gorge is coming to Six Flags Fiesta Texas in 2027, as the longest launched family coaster in the world! The coaster, from Vekoma, is 4120 feet long and features four launch moments, 32 moments of floater air time and hits top speed of 45mph. From all appearances, this looks like they took inspiration from Dollywood's Big Bear Mountain and said make it even longer and add a few new tricks.
I can tell you I love Big Bear Mountain and this looks like it could be even better!
(5/26/2026) We’ve got a few more details about what’s going on at Six Flags Fiesta Texas on May 30th. According to the press release, the park is calling this year’s event “FT92: Under the Blue Moon”, where you will “experience a nighttime event centered on major announcements and immersive storytelling.”
“In the weeks leading up to the event, unexplained activity has drawn attention inside the park. A massive crate bearing claw marks has appeared in Crackaxle Canyon. Glowing red eyes have been spotted within, accompanied by deep growls after dark. The meaning behind these occurrences will be revealed under the light of the blue moon.”
The special event presentation will begin at 8:18pm… just as the full moon rises…
(5/23/2026) It’s hard to say exactly what is coming to Six Flags Fiesta Texas right now, but there is a growing rumor suggesting that the previously rumored “family multi-launch coaster” project that was once planned may have evolved into something far more thrilling. This is just a rumor so far, but the park is expected to make an announcement on May 30th and continues to tease a full moon / werewolf style theme for the new attraction, possibly something along the lines of Werewolf Gorge. May 30th is also the date for the park’s annual FT92 coaster fan event, so nothing like having the perfect audience present for your big announcement. Stay tuned!
(5/14/2026) A giant creepy shipping crate has now arrived inside Fiesta Texas as a sort of teaser for whatever the park has planned for 2027.
(5/2/2026) Six Flags Fiesta Texas has updated the teaser billboard and phone message about the park’s upcoming 2027 addition. Give them a call at 210-697-5476 to see if you can figure out just what is heading to the park’s Crackaxle Canyon area.
(4/4/2026) So what’s in store for Six Flags Fiesta Texas in 2027? Teasers about a theme have been dropping, but really nothing solid about the ride itself. One new rumor that was sent our way claimed this might be a multi-launch family coaster of some kind of a decent length that might feature a spike and some transfer track sections so that portions of the ride may be taken backwards.
A number of interesting innovations have been coming to light in terms of unique new family coasters with a twist from many various designers. Zamperla was mentioned by one source, but I know Vekoma, Gerstlauer and Intamin are also all working on a variety of interesting projects at parks around the world that could also fit this bill. While not rumored, we know Six Flags has been working with Vekoma on a number of new projects as of late, which also makes me wonder if something like Vekoma’s Switchback Coaster concept (Jungle Rush at Dreamworld) could show up at a Six Flags park too…which features a rather odd concept of a lift-hill that is able to rotate with the train locked at the top, and then drop it backwards down an entirely different track, only to repeat this trick again later in the ride to return it to a forward running position and drop it again down a different track segment and so on. Intamin also has a similar concept with a more traditional stationary lift that just makes extensive use of switch tracks and launch tracks, which opened last year as Gold Rush at Drayton Manor.
We’ll just have to wait and see what Fiesta Texas has up their sleeve…
(4/3/2026) There is something of a new tease for whatever Six Flags Fiesta Texas is working on for the 2027 season. According to the press release, “Six Flags Fiesta Texas has released a 2026 Fiesta Medal inspired by the legend of the Chupacabra, blending Fiesta tradition with the park’s evolving mythology. The design reflects the recent Chupacabra retheming and a series of mysterious sightings hinted at on social media, including glowing eyes and unexplained activity often appearing during full moons.”
“These subtle clues point toward a new attraction coming in 2027, with more details yet to be revealed. The Fiesta Medal serves as both a collectible keepsake and a symbol of a legend that is only beginning to awaken. The medal is available at all major merchandise locations while supplies last.”
(2/15/2026) Six Flags Fiesta Texas has begun teasing a new project for 2027 in the Crackaxle Canyon area of the park, where it should sit alongside other major attractions like Iron Rattler and Dr. Diabolical’s Cliffhanger. A teaser billboard up in the park also tells you to call 210-697-5476 to learn more, where you can listen in to an interesting recording that drops a few interesting phrases such as “Find out what’s within”, “Slide on by”, an “Out of this world development”, “Within this quarry wall” and a chance to see “majestic wildlife”.
The interesting thing is that the land being cleared by removing old waterslides we were assuming the next big project would be for the waterpark, but this clearly says it’s a development for Crackaxle Canyon, so what could it be?
