Six Flags 2023 season features new rides and attractions (2024)

According to CEO Selim Bassoul, the new lineup of experiences for the Six Flags 2023 season is intended to provide opportunities for guests to “discover something fresh and exciting” at Six Flags parks across North America.

“These new attractions are an exciting opportunity to ramp up the joy of our parks to a whole new level,” Bassoul said. “We can’t wait to share these fun and thrilling experiences with our guests, giving them reasons to visit us multiple times per year […] and create new memories with their families.”
