Six Flags is going on a billion-dollar spending spree to add new roller coasters, thrill rides and water slides to its playlands across North America that doesn’t even include the $1 billion being spent on a new Six Flags park in Saudi Arabia.
Six Flags plans to spend $1 billion on new rides, kids play areas, seasonal events and other amenities at its 42 amusement parks and water parks in North America over the next two years.

The new attractions coming to Six Flags parks in 2025 and 2026 include 11 roller coasters plus water rides, themed lands and water park upgrades.

The Six Flags 2025 lineup includes seven coasters — at Illinois’ Six Flags Great America (Wrath of Rakshasa), Canada’s Wonderland (AlpenFury), Massachusetts’ Six Flags New England (Quantum Accelerator), Virginia’s Kings Dominion (Rapterra), North Carolina’s Carowinds (Snoopy’s Racing Railway), Six Flags Over Georgia (Georgia Surfer) and New Jersey’s Six Flags Great Adventure (Flash: Vertical Velocity).
Three other parks — Valencia’s Six Flags Magic Mountain, Ohio’s Kings Island and Six Flags Over Texas — will get water park upgrades in 2025.

The 2026 lineup includes four more coasters — at Valencia’s Six Flags Magic Mountain, Six Flags Great Adventure, Six Flags Over Texas and Six Flags Mexico.
Great Adventure will get a launch coaster and Over Texas will get a dive coaster — both record breakers. Magic Mountain’s new coaster will be a first-of-its-kind ride in North America. Six Flags Mexico will get a family thrill boomerang coaster.

The rest of the new 2026 attraction lineup includes water rides at Carowinds and Canada’s Wonderland, a family thrill ride at Kings Island, a themed kids area at Six Flags Great America and water park upgrades at Buena Park’s Knott’s Berry Farm.
None of those tallies include the eight roller coasters coming in 2025 to the new $1 billion Six Flags Qiddiya City in Saudi Arabia — including Falcon’s Flight, which will become the fastest (155 mph) and tallest (640 feet) coaster in the world.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy.
