Six Flags Theme Parks
 Park News - UPDATE - (11/14/2024) In light of the complete omission of any mention at all of Zumanjaro in the press release Six Flags Great Adventure sent out earlier today, Screamscape reached out to the park for some clarification. Was this simply an oversight on the part of Six Flags by not mentioning Zumanjaro, or should we take this as a sort of clever ‘wink-wink’ to the park’s biggest fans?
According to the email we received from Staci Wheeler, Marketing & PR Manager for Six Flags Great Adventure, “I can provide clarification. Kingda Ka/Zumanjaro, Green Lantern™, Parachutes and The Twister in the Boardwalk/Golden Kingdom areas will make way for an all-new, multi-record-breaking, signature launch coaster to debut in 2026.“
(11/14/2024) It is now official. Six Flags Great Adventure sent out a press release confirming that Kingda Ka is now closed forever, along with the removal of Green Lantern, Twister, the Sky Ride and the closed Parachute tower ride to make way for a multi-record breaking new launched roller coaster for the 2026 season. (See below)
One very interesting note however, is that the press release failed to mention the closure or removal of Zumanjaro, which is attached to massive Kingda Ka top-hat framework... so either this was accidental or they may be planning on leaving enough of that structure up to save Zumanjaro. There is a third option... the one that hasn’t gone so well for them at Cedar Point so far, which would be to keep the top-hat section of the Kingda Ka coaster to incorporate into whatever new creation they have planned for 2026. Stay tuned!
(11/12/2024) So what’s the latest from Six Flags Great Adventure? Well… Kingda Ka… closed for the rest of the season. Beyond that? Nobody knows for sure and according to some of the latest rumors… the final fate of Kingda Ka may be still undecided as the park and corporate determine what to do. Frequent thrill ride news reporter, Marcus Leshock from Chicago’s WGN Morning News team tweeted out a statement he received from Six Flags Great Adventure (see below) that simply says that they are planning to ‘share information about the ride and additional park news very soon.” Say about that what you want, but at least it wasn’t a firm confirmation that it is closed for good. Not yet at least..
However, the fate of three other park attractions has now been confirmed with the filing of official permits by the park for the “Demo of Parachute Ride”, “Demo of Green Lantern Ride” and “Demo of Twister Top Spin Ride”. To be fair, the Parachute tower removal should come as no surprise to anyone, as it last ran at the end of the 2022 season and was confirmed as being closed for good early in 2023. I also heard rumors that Twister was leaving with Green Lantern as well, with the three of them leaving together then opening up a huge section of the park for future development.
No permits have been filed for Ka / Zumanjaro yet, and also in the plus column, nothing has been filed for the Skyride just yet either. Though… clearing and taking down the Skyride towers is clearly not a focus for the park as they could leave the empty towers standing for years if they wanted to.
(11/8/2024) The persistent rumor for Six Flags Great Adventure is that this could be the final season for Kingda Ka, which would probably also mean it is the end of Zumanjaro as well. The big question is, are the rumors true? I honestly don’t know, as emails are coming in about how this is the last weekend to ride Kingda Ka.
Meanwhile a Screamscape source only confirmed that Ka would typically be shutting down this time of year for the rest of the season anyway, along with many of the park’s other major attractions, as they are unable to run reliably once the cold weather moves in.
So is Kingda Ka closing for good? I honestly don’t know… previous rumors sent in over the summer simply states that the new Six Flags management would be closing it over the winter to give it a serious inspection and review the known issues it has, as well as determine any others, in order to predict the long term viability of the roller coaster and status of the temperamental launch system. It is possible that some of this may have already been done with the ride open, which ties into the current rumors claiming that the fate of Ka has already been decided. Survey crews leaving paint markings all over the area in and around it doesn’t really help matters.
So again… I really just don’t know what is going to happen, but there are enough people out there saying that this is ‘the end’ that if you are in the area, you just might want to drop in this weekend to get a ride or two in, just in case…
(10/27/2024) After discussing all the crazy rumors flying around Six Flags Great Adventure since the merger with Cedar Fair was made official, Screamscape has been sent some concerning news from a source in regards to some of those rumors.
The good news is that the rumors of Kingda Ka leaving are likely just bad rumors. As with any Intamin hydraulic launch coaster these days, they’re all really just one bad breakdown away a long term closure with a high-price tag attached to fix it. So much like how Cedar Fair has been handling Xcelerator at Knott’s Berry Farm, I believe the new Six Flags management team is taking things one day at a time in regards to the future of Kingda Ka. While there are always items to fix and repair on Kingda Ka, including the trains, for the time being Ka is holding itself together. Also a factor is that Zumanjaro is permanently attached to it and any decision to remove Kingda Ka would also result in the loss of a Zumanjaro, so any decisions here will not be made lightly. I would expect Ka and Zumanjaro to undergo some serious inspections over the off-season that could possibly delay their opening for the 2025 season however, depending on what they find.
As for the SkyRide… as much as it pains me, I’m not hearing good things lately about the fate of the SkyRide. I’m not sure if what I’m hearing simply means that it definitely won't be open in 2025, or if they have already just decided that the SkyRide will never reopen. Prior to now that last thing shared with me about the status of the SkyRide was that the inspection reports from earlier this year indicated that it was only one of the two lines on the SkyRide that failed inspection, while the other side was cleared to open, but the park just opted to keep it all closed for 2024 instead.
Lastly… let’s talk about Green Lantern. Our latest point of contact now tells us that it does sound like Green Lantern will be leaving Six Flags Great Adventure, but no one knows when. While my theory about converting it into a Floorless coaster and moving it to another park in the chain is a valid possibility, if the corporate office has a location in mind, they haven’t shared it with anyone yet. This is also why no one seems to be sure if this is Green Lantern’s last season or if it might return for 2025, so get your last rides in now just in case.
(10/26/2024) It may be time to stop listening to the radio in New Jersey. LOL… I know… the younger readers are probably roller their eyes right now, wondering who listens to radio anymore, right? For whatever reason, first there are stories coming off the air-waves out there claiming that the Sky-Ride is leaving, and then Kingda Ka may be closing for good, and now the latest story is that it may be Green Lantern that closes for good instead. Or Both… depending on which conspiracy theory you are leaning towards.
So… has Screamscape heard this latest rumor from any of our sources? Nope… not yet at least. So do I believe it is possible? In this case, I’m more inclined to believe that Green Lantern could be removed at some point in the future, simply because the new management running the merged Six Flags / Cedar Fair empire is made up almost entirely from the Cedar Fair management team. Looking at their history, this management team was not a fan of B&M Stand-Up rollercoasters and began a program where they would close and convert them into B&M Floorless coasters which would open the following season under a brand new name.
This was done at Cedar Point when Mantis (1996 to 2014) was converted into Rougarou in 2015, and Vortex at California’s Great America (1991 to 2016) became Patriot in 2017. There were rumors that they were also considering converting Vortex (1992) at Carowinds as well, but the conversion of the California Vortex into Patriot didn’t really thrill the public all that much due to the smaller size of the ride, and more forgettable layout, so those plans were shelved, especially as Carowinds was riding high from opening Fury 325 in 2015 and they went with plans to build Copperhead Strike instead in 2019. Now, Six Flags also played this game as well, following Cedar Fair’s game plans they took the Apocalypse coaster at Six Flags America (2012-2018) and turned it into Firebird with Floorless trains for the 2019 season. It’s worth mentioning that much like Vortex/Patriot, Firebird started out as the legendary Iron Wolf at Six Flags Great America, the very first coaster built by B&M, so it too was a smaller ride they were seeking to add more thrill too. There were rumored that Six Flags had their eyes on performing a similar conversion to Georgia Scorcher at Six Flags over Georgia someday, but it has yet to happen.
Now, I know the local fans are already screaming in their brains that you can’t convert Green Lantern into a B&M Floorless, because Six Flags Great Adventure is home to the world’s very first Floorless coaster… Medusa. And you are right… which is why Green Lantern would have to be REMOVED from the park entirely and sent to a new home somewhere else, and be converted into a Floorless coaster at the same time. While I haven’t had a chance to ride Green Lantern as it sits today, I did ride it as Chang at it’s original home at Kentucky Kingdom and it was a fantastic ride that was even better than Cedar Point’s Mantis back in the day, so converting it to a Floorless coaster would certainly be a fun gift for one of the smaller parks in the new mega Six Flags chain to receive at some point in the future… if… if they go ahead with this concept.
There is one other possibility however, though I’m not sure how willing B&M would be to do it, and that might be to leave it as a stand-up, but convert it to use B&M’s new Surf Coaster style trains like Pipeline at SeaWorld Orlando. That’s more of a long-shot, as for the the Surf Coaster concept to be successful and provide those crazy moments of floating stand-up air, I would think that a custom layout would have to be designed to deliver those moments in the same way that Pipeline does, so a Floorless conversion and re-location to the park that doesn’t have one is the best course of action. While the idea of converting Georgia Scorcher could return some day as well, I’m not sure what the future would hold of Six Flags Magic Mountain’s legendary Riddler’s Revenge since that park already has clone of Medusa in the form of Scream. But that’s a discussion for another day…
In the meantime, I would keep an eye on Green Lantern… but I’ve heard nothing about removing it yet. Only that it would make some sense if they wanted to do so and gift a smaller park with something special that probably never should have gone to Great Adventure in the first place.
(9/28/2024) Ok…. a reader sent me a link to an odd article posted by a radio station, referencing some unverified social media reports from sources I’ve never heard of, that all simply sound like pure Click Bait to me, so I’m not going to share those links right now. The general gists is that they’re spreading a rumor, or the idea that a rumor is going around, claiming that Six Flags just might be thinking of closing Kingda Ka for good.
Insanity!
Seriously… I don’t know everything, but I haven’t heard this rumor myself yet, and honestly, I’d be more worried about the fate of the park’s Skyride right now than Kingda Ka. Kingda Ka is a huge reason that guests come to Six Flags Great Adventure in the first place and to be honest, it sounds like it has been running very well as of late, so there would be no reason to close it at this time.
There are some complications that could come into play however that could see Kingda Ka have a little downtime going into the 2025 season perhaps. There is the issue that Six Flags is having some kind of issue with Zumanjaro, as it has been closed for most of the 2024 season. I don’t think it opened until mid-June 2024 only to shut it down again at the end of the Summer once again and it is not expected to reopen for the rest of the year.
There is also the fact that Six Flags has merged with Cedar Fair, and Cedar Fair’s management team is now calling the shots for the combined company. I could very much see Cedar Fair putting a heavy-duty microscope to Kingda Ka, and Zumanjaro as well, over the off-season, given their history with Top Thrill Dragster, which itself closed down for good in 2021 when a woman in the queue was struck by a large piece of metal that flew off one of the roller coaster trains. So with that in mind, I would count on the new Six Flags management team doing everything they can to ensure that Kingda Ka could not suffer from a similar incident going forward, as well as finding the best solution to keep Zumanjaro running as well.
But Is there a chance that they might be thinking of closing it for good? Based on what I’ve been hearing… not at all, or at least not at this time. If Kingda Ka were to become operationally unstable or suffer a number of mechanical issues with the launch system, like what Knott’s Berry Farm had to deal with on Xcelerator during the pandemic, then they might start to look at what their long-term plans are for Kingda Ka. For now though, other than ensuring that Kingda Ka is as safe as it can be, my thought is that the corporate board is more focused on trying to fix the issues with Top Thrill 2 at Cedar Point going into 2025.
(9/21/2024) While Fright Fest Extreme started last week at Six Flags Great Adventure, the launch has not gone smoothly for the park. It seems that Fright Fest has only been able to offer a limited ‘preview’ of the full event slate since then, with only two haunted houses open out of the nine promised as of last night: Big Top Terror and The Witches Reflection.
So, in other words, all those big name IP haunts that they were promoting as their major new additions to the Haunt line-up, have failed to open to guests at this time. That list of closed mazes includes Stranger Things, The Conjuring, the SAW 20th Anniversary haunt, Army of the Dead, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Trick ‘r Treat and one self-made creation, The Asylum. According to a local news update, the only reason the park has given for failing to open up fully has been a blame on “unforseen circumstances” with no other details.
(9/6/2024) Screamscape was sent a little bit of anonymous info regarding the closure of the Skyride at the park this season. While the general speculation was that the closure of the attraction may have been a budget cut move encouraged by the pre-merger Six Flags CEO, Selim Bassoul, our source claims the issue may be more serious.
Despite the fact that the Skyride under-went a major refurbishment a few seasons ago, I’m hearing that during pre-season inspections, some “rust” issues were detected with the top of a few of the ropeway’s towers, leading to a failed safety inspection, thus the Skyride was has not been cleared to operate. Given that we’ve seen zero reports all season of any kind of maintenance efforts taking place on the towers, we can only assume that nothing has changed with the operational status of the ride thus far in 2024.
The only hope now is that the newly merged Six Flags / Cedar Fair will show some love to the Six Flags Great Adventure attraction and restore it to operational condition. All Von Roll parts are readily available from Doppelmayr, and in addition to the mega-chain’s existing crew in New Jersey, Cedar Fair has maintenance teams who also work on Von Roll ropeways at Cedar Point and California’s Great America to call upon for expertise when needed. There is no reason to let this extremely rare attraction be shut down or removed.
While I don’t know how effectual this is, there is a Change.org petition up right now to “Save the Skyride”, and at the very least signing it will hopefully show the park that their guests want to keep this unique aerial gondola attraction for the future. While the Six Flags of old was content with letting all their old Von Roll skyrides pass into the scrap-heap, Cedar Fair’s parks have been able to take good care of the versions at their parks thus far.
(9/2/2024) Six Flags Great Adventure is the latest Six Flags park to announce a new Chaperone Policy will be put into effect during Fright Fest events. All guests age 15 and under must be accompanied by a Chaperone at least 21 years old to remain in the park after 5pm. Underage guests in the park will be asked to leave or ejected from the park at that time.
(8/31/2024) Fright Fest Extreme will open at Six Flags Great Adventure on September 13th (aka: Friday the 13th!) and continue on over 32 select nights between then and November 3rd. The list of this year’s haunts includes: The SAW Franchise, The Conjuring Universe, Stranger Things, Army of the Dead, Trick ‘r Treat and Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
That isn’t all however, as there are many more haunted attractions in store for you to experience this year, including Big Top Terror, Asylum, The Witches Reflection, Exile Canyon, CarnEvil, The Bloody Fountain, Curse of Blackbeard’s Bounty, Demon District, Unleashed, Dead Man’s Party, Blade Drummers, and Freak Show.
(8/8/2024) According to an update posted by a local radio station, the SkyRide at Six Flags Great Adventure is not closed for good. According to a Six Flags official who spoke with them, the aerial gondola attraction is only ‘temporarily closed”. No details were given as to why it has been closed, or when it might reopen, but at least they are confirming that it is not closed for good.
(7/28/2024) A Screamscape source has sent in a rumor that the Skyride may be in trouble at Six Flags Great Adventure. While the Sky Ride has not run all season, this wouldn’t be the first time the ride has gone down for an extended period of time only to be revived a year or two later. The disheartening thing this year however is that the Skyride is said to have been removed from the park website, app and even the map, or at least the cable and tower lines, as the buildings for each station are still there. It is also worth mentioning that I’ve been told that the directional signage around the park has also removed any reference to it.
The curious thing is that the Sky Ride was just refurbished a few years ago, complete with the replacement of the main cable, so it doesn’t make sense to suddenly close it now, unless there is something more serious wrong. The ride also had a sponsorship deal with M&M that started back in 2011 I believe, so it also may be possible that the sponsorship deal was not renewed, and with it the park may have also been forced to axe the maintenance budget for the 2024 season.
As you might expect, this is another famous Von Roll “Sky Ride” system, but the one at Great adventure is fairly unique as it features two sets of cables running side by side instead of the one cable-way. The history of the ride is fairly unique as well, as the creation of the ride at the park is actually the combination of two separate ride systems, incorporating drive and cars built for the New York World’s Fair (1964-1965) system with the unique double-line towers taken from the failed Freedomland USA park in New York (1960-1964) to create the version at Great Adventure. It’s worth mentioning that today’s construction standards in the US now actually prevent the relocation of these rides. While the cars and station parts can be reused and sent to other Von Roll rides, the towers themselves are prevented from being re-purposed and re-built at another location within the United States. They can be sold out of the country however, as the pieces of the Tulsa Sky Ride that was removed last year were purchased by a foreign used ride company who indicated they planned to relocate to an unknown location somewhere in the UAE.
There may be a silver lining to this however in the form of the merger between Cedar Fair and Six Flags. While Six Flags has been content to close and remove the Sky Rides from all the rest of the parks they control over the years (SF Over Georgia, Over Texas, Astroworld, New England, Great America, St. Louis, Magic Mountain and La Ronde) Cedar Fair has been keeping the versions running at their parks at California’s Great America and Cedar Point running. I think the only Von Roll Cedar Fair closed was the one that used to run at Worlds of Fun, which closed back in the late 80’s. Keeping that in mind, including that Cedar Fair just refurbished their entire gondola fleet for the 2024 season, there is hope that the new Six Flags management may also restore the Great Adventure ride to service, especially since it does a good job transporting guests from one side of the park to the other.
(11/25/2023) For fans of Six Flags Great Adventure over the years, the park has a special offering right now to purchase 50th Anniversary Bricks that will be used to create the refurbished Dream Street Pathway at the park. The bricks feature one of four different designs and a custom inscription, and you will also receive a “mini replica brick” and certificate to put on display at home.
The mini bricks to keep at home are a nice touch, and the design options include the choice of one of three different logos the park has used over the years, as well as a Wild Safari logo. HOWEVER… the final price is going to hit you with a bit of sticker shock. You have to follow the link to an outside company to design the brick, and only at the end are you presented with the price of $149.99. The bricks do turn out nice though, as Six Flags Fiesta Texas used the same group for their own memorial walkway a couple of years ago to celebrate that park’s 30th Anniversary.
2024/2025 - The Flash: Vertical Velocity & Savannah Sunset Resort and Spa / Safari Off Road Adventure Returns, Log Flume Makeover - (10/20/2024) While The Flash: Vertical Velocity has already been officially delayed until the 2025 season, we do have some good news this week. It may have taken most of the season, but a video has been posted showing off the coaster finally making test runs this week, giving everyone a peek about the ride experience to come next season.
(8/14/2024) To the disapointment of many, Six Flags has now officially delayed the opening of the new The Flash: Vertical Velocity roller coaster until the 2025 season.
(8/3/2024) Well, August is here and Flash: Vertical Velocity at Six Flags Great Adventure is still not open. There is some great irony in the fact that a ride themed to the world's fastest superhero has had one of the slowest construction paces of all time.
A new construction update video posted this weekend (see below) shows off the current status of the ride. While the coaster track itself has been physically installed for some time now, there apparently is no station structure in place and workers have been busy installed the Flash icon logo at the top of the central tower. For the most part a lot of the landscaping and fencing around the ride has been put into place, but otherwise there still seems to be a lot left to do as progress is moving at the proverbial “snail’s pace” for some reason.
So with all that in mind, I’d forget about seeing this ride open anytime this month, and focus more on it being something extra at the park during Fright Fest season in September or October most likely.
(7/1/2024) A new construction update for Flash: Vertical Velocity at Six Flags Great Adventure can be seen below. As previously mentioned, track construction is complete and they appear to be finalizing the installation of the rest of the ride’s electrical work for the various launch systems and prepping things for any final concrete pours ahead of future ride testing.
(5/31/2024) So what’s going on with the new Flash coaster at Six Flags Great Adventure? According to various reports the track is now fully installed as of this week, so the park is waiting to install the cars onto the track and for clearance to begin testing soon. Unfortunately, this will still take several more weeks, so you may not want to expect to see The Flash: Vertical Velocity ready to open until sometime in July at this point. Stay tuned!
(5/27/2024) The local news has posted a preview video of the new Savannah Sunset Resort & Spa experience opening this summer at Six Flags Great Adventure on June 14th.
(5/21/2024) Construction on The Flash: Vertical Velocity at Six Flags Great Adventure has picked up the pace based on the trip report video below. In fact, from the look of things, the track install actually looks to be getting very close to being complete.
(3/21/2024) The new animation with some POV footage of The Flash: Vertical Velocity has been posted by Six Flags Great Adventure. Check it out below.
(2/25/2024) Six Flags Great Adventure has announced that their new Savannah Sunset Resort & Spa “glamping” experience will be ready to open to guests starting on June 14th. Reservations are now being accepted on the resorts new official website page.
(9/4/2023) While nothing was mentioned during the big Six Flags announcement day, guests to Six Flags Great Adventure have noticed a new banner is up at the park’s Log Flume ride claiming that the ride is currently closed “as it undergoes a makeover for our 50th Anniversary” and will reopen in Summer 2024.
Don’t look for this to be anything as dramatic as what is happening at Six Flags over Texas, but perhaps it will be more than just your typical off-season refurbishment as well. A little added themeing couldn’t hurt. Stay tuned!
(8/31/2023) Six Flags Great Adventure has confirmed that the park’s Safari Off Road Adventure is returning in 2024. When COVID-19 struck and the theme park was closed for months, Six Flags was able to reopen the animal section under the former self drive-thru tour concept from the years before as the Wild Safari Drive-Thru Adventure. While the self-driven animal attraction is still open now, I suspect this year will be the last for it once the large Safari Off Road Adventure trucks return to service in 2024, so be sure to get your last run through now while you can.
Meanwhile Six Flags Great Adventure has also updated the details about the new Savannah Sunset Resort & Spa concept, which will be a Glamping style experience within the animal exhibit space. “Spend a night inside a custom luxury canvas tent that brings opulence to the open savannah. Relax and unwind at our state-of-the-art spa and experience find dining in the wild at our restaurant.” I suspect this will temporary set-up, but for those interested, you’ll want to book your stay for this one-of-a-kind experience when they are made available, because I have a feeling they will sell out quickly.
(8/30/2023) Six Flags Great Adventure has announced two new additions for 2024: The Flash: Vertical Velocity and the Savannah Sunset Resort and Spa. The Flash: Vertical Velocity will indeed be a Vekoma Super Boomerang style roller coaster, the first-of-its-kind in North America, and feature a new train design inspired by The Flash’s speed suit.
Currently the website announcement for the Savannah Sunset Resort and Spa page is incomplete, showing just the logo and text announcing “Spend the night inside a custom luxury canvas tent that brings opulence to the open savanna.” Meanwhile the rest of the text on the actual page is a copy of the text for the new roller coaster instead, but I imagine they’ll fix it before too long.
(8/13/2023) Six Flags Great Adventure seems to be teasing something via an odd math problem on their social media: “4+50+48+15+24+10+436=”
Oh boy, I knew those bad grades in my high school math class might bite me in the ass someday, but I figured that had more to do with always thinking that 42 was the ultimate answer to Life, The Universe and Everything! (Props to those fans who get that reference)
Obviously basic addition isn’t going to solve this riddle., but some numbers do stand out with some potentially obvious meanings.
50 = 2024 will be Six Flags Great Adventure’s 50th Anniversary
48 = A very common height limit for many roller coasters
15 = If this is a roller coaster, this would be the 15th roller coaster for the park.
24 = Could be indicative of a lot of things, but 24 is also a very common number of seats on a roller coaster train if it has 6 cars.
As for the rest… they’re more unknown and may have more to do with the ride itself, such as the number “4” could represent the number of launches, or the number of inversions. In similiar fashion, the number “10” could also represent the number of inversions, or seconds of weightlessness, or number of negative-G moments. “436” is a bit harder a number ot chew, because I double the park is building anything only 436 feet long, and definitely not 436 feet high. This begs the question… is 436 a metric measurement, which would 436 would translate into 1430.4 feet, which starts to feel more appropriate for a coaster’s length.
As luck would have it, a new roller coaster design has been in the news this year that is actually advertised as being exactly 436 meters / 1430.4 feet in length. This would be the brand new Vekoma Super Boomerang, which also stands 52.5 meters tall, but height is always adjustable to a point, so that number could also sub in for the 50 or 48 in the equation. As a shuttle-coaster, it also delivers a total of 4 inversions (2 forwards, 2 backwards) and based on a POV video of the prototype that just opened in China under the name “Cloud Shuttle” it does appear to offer potentially 10 moments of negative-Gs. Oh, at Vekoma coaster trains routinely have a 48 inch height limits, and the prototype does have trains that seat 24 riders.
This is all just guest work, and a lot of others have come to similar conclusions as well, most likely because when you google “436 meter coaster” the first three search entries that pop-up all point to articles about the new Vekoma Super Boomerang coaster design. So just a thought to keep in mind.
2026 - New Launched Roller Coaster - (11/14/2024) A press release from Six Flags states that, “in 2026, we’ll unveil an all-new, multi-record-breaking launch coaster, a must-ride attraction sure to capture fans' imaginations,” Bacica said. To make way for this landmark addition, the park has retired the Kingda Ka and GREEN LANTERN™ coasters, with construction beginning soon. This exciting new ride underscores Six Flags’ commitment to continually elevating the park experience and making every visit an unforgettable adventure for all.” Later on they also confirmed that Zumanjaro was also leaving as well, thus seeming to confirm that the entire Kingda Ka coaster and structure would be coming down for good to make way for whatever this massive new launched coaster project is. Stay tuned!
