Site Updates

Welcome to the All-New Guide to SFoT!

After months of hard work, I’d like to welcome you to the all-new Guide to SFoT! It’s probably obvious our website has been completely remodeled with a brand new look and feel. The biggest change by far is that the entire site is responsive, meaning it should look great on a computer, phone, or tablet.

I started Guide to Six Flags over Texas nearly 6 years ago due to it intersecting two of my passions: web design and Six Flags over Texas. It became apparent the old site was starting to look dated on desktop computers and was virtually unusable on mobile devices. After months of research and late nights of work, I’m proud to unveil the all-new Guide to Six Flags over Texas that should help it stay current

More Work to Come

Though a majority of the website is online, there is still significant work to do. In the interest of time, the site is currently missing dining, shopping, and entertainment venues. These will be added once the park re-opens and it’s apparent which pages need to be copied over from the old design, and which pages need to be updated.

Various other content is missing since we focused on the main sections (like Special Features) and ride pages.

Feedback Requested

As with any new site, there’s bound to be bugs and errors. Please report these to us through the contact form.

Brief updates and happenings around Six Flags over Texas

Recent Local News Stories

Multiple local news agencies (1, 2, 3) are inexplicably reporting that Six Flags over Texas “is going cashless,” something that happened nearly 5 years ago during Covid and has been a well-established reality throughout the park ever since. The only actual new news is that the park appears to be permanently bringing back the chaperone policy—which was initially introduced during Fright Fest 2024—per a recent social media post.

New Height Requirements

The park has posted new height requirements for both the Mine Train and Judge Roy Scream roller coasters, increasing their 42 inch requirement to 48 inches. The change (which affects several other rides throughout Six Flags parks) is likely related to insurance but will surely put some families in an awkward position if their child was previously able to ride but no longer can. Our ride listing is an easy way to view all ride height requirements.

Titan Reopening for Spring Break

Titan’s massive repainting job is not yet complete, but the park will be reportedly pausing the project to let it reopen for Spring Break crowds. The ride’s transformation to a red, white, and blue color scheme (in honor of the Texas flag) is expected to be complete in April.

Legacy Membership Prices Increase

Legacy membership owners have been informed of changes and cost increases. Legacy Gold Plus members are increasing to $11.99/month. Platinum memberships are going away entirely, converting members to Diamond at $14.99. Diamond is increasing to $18.99, while Diamond Elite is increasing to $23.99. New pricing starts on the payment after 3/27/25. Free season drink bottles are now included.

Titan’s New Color Scheme Revealed

Six Flags over Texas revealed Titan’s new color scheme in a recent Facebook Reel. The new colors are set to be red, white, and blue, “to represent the Texas flag.” The video goes on to say it will take 1,130 gallons of paint to cover the monstrous ride’s structure. The ride is expected to open in spring, depending on weather cooperating.
