Ride the Updated Pirates of Speelunker Cave

When Pirates of Speelunker Cave opened in 2022, it lasted a mere 3 months before floods extensively damaged and closed the attraction (the very same fate that Yosemite Sam endured). But Pirates of Speelunker Cave is back and better than ever with even more theming and...

Brief updates and happenings around Six Flags over Texas

Crowd Alert: March 13-15

A perfect storm of crowds is brewing at Six Flags Over Texas this weekend. Not only has Spring Break started, but an Indycar Grand Prix is happening throughout the streets of nearby ATT Stadium and Globe Life Field. Very heavy crowds are expected at the park and throughout Arlington. Visitors beware!

Bubble Show Headed to Southern Palace

The Gazillion Bubbles Show will showcase the “beauty of bubble artistry and wonders of soapy science” in the Southern Palace Theater. The show runs March 14-22, and will presumably be the first show in the newly-redone theater that now features seats instead of bench-style seating.

Tormenta’s Vertical Loop Completed

Tormenta Rampaging Run just completed another record-breaking element. SFoT just topped off the 179-ft vertical loop bringing the massive new ride closer to completion.

First Details of Fast Lane Pricing Emerge

The first pricing details for the new Fast Lane priority queue system at SFoT have been released. The date-variable pricing released so far shows a range of $59-95 per day. All-season Fast Lane is also available for $299 while an all-season, all-park Fast Lane is listed at $999. Pricing is subject to change as the park continues refining attendance forecasts and anticipated Fast Lane demand.

Tormenta Gets Topped Out

Tormenta has officially been topped out, with the peak of the lift hill and beginning of the turn leading out to the first drop installed. By Friday, December 19, all track between the lift and first drop was installed, marking a milestone for the record-breaking dive coaster.
