Six Flags Theme Parks
Park News - (5/27/2024) There has been some fuss over the fact that starting in late June, Six Flags over Texas will close the entire park each week on Tuesdays for the entire Summer. This is a bit of a surprise to the local market, as this is also the original Six Flags theme park that started the chain. Naturally guests in other markers have been concerned about their own parks making similar changed to their operational schedules.
Going through the posted calendars for all the parks on the Six Flags website, I’ve only been able to find the following items of interest.
Six Flags Mexico is closed Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays from now through to July 10, and following that the park is closed every Monday through to the last week of August when they appear to move to mainly weekend ops.
2024 - Nothing is known at this time...
  2025 - Batgirl - (11/29/2024) Six Flags Mexico just can’t win right now… first they lose the Vekoma Tilt coaster that they wanted to install for 2025 to Cedar Point, and now the park has confirm dthat they are closing the park’s BOOMERANG after this weekend.
Or are they? Actually no… it’s not.
About 24 hours after the initial rage and disappointment had time to peak online on social media the park added a follow up post regarding the Boomerang to say that “*Cough, Cough... we missed writing a part: Boomerang closes its tem-po-ral-men-te” because Boomerang will “transform into a new experience that you will soon be able to enjoy. Are you ready for Batgirl?” Well played Six Flags Mexico! Very well played, especially following the online outrage about the silent closures of coasters at other Six Flags parks in New Jersey and Texas.
So Yes… Boomerang will reopen in 2025 as “Batgirl”. I can only assume they’ll give it a new coat of paint to maybe go with the Batgirl logo on the teaser, which features a couple of shades of purple with gold/yellow highlights. The trains definitely need a new look at well, so it might be a good time to upgrade to Vekoma’s new style trains with the soft-vest restraints if possible as they really do improve the ride experience on those Boomerang coasters.
2026 - New Roller Coaster - (11/14/2024) A press release from Six Flags today confirmed that the company is planning to spend over $1 BILLION on the parks over the next two years. Some of this will come in the form of enhancements to the guest experience, such as new themed areas, dining upgrades and technology enhancements. While we’ve seen the 2025 capital projects ($500 million) already announced, they decided to post a list of teasers of what they are already confirming will come to some of the parks in 2026 as part of another $525 million capital investment plan.
Six Flags Mexico made the 2026 list, and rightfully so after losing their 2025 coaster project to Cedar Point as Siren's Curse. Unfortunately, it looks like the 2026 plans to bring a new roller coaster to Mexico will have to be a little smaller than what was originally planned, as they are now only saying that the park will get “a family thrill boomerang coaster”.
