The Frontier Adventures area of the theme park, including Safari Off Road Adventure, as well as Bugs Bunny National Park, the Parachutes and Skull Mountain will not be open during this limited operation weekend as we prepare for the all-new Holiday in the Park, beginning November 21. - See more at: https://www.sixflags.com/greatadventure/special-events/fall-fun-bonus-days#sthash.4b9QK9RV.dpuf

From The Parks website

The last time I think I saw it running was 2006. I hoped it would come back for so long that I finally gave up hope.

For the first time ever, I only went to Hurricane Harbor once this year. I like the slides, but the crowd and poor management made me never want to go back.

The way it reads is if you buy the 2016 dining pass, you can use it during Holiday In The Park this year, which I am very happy about.

^ Our Sky Screamer grew taller after the announcement. Looping Dragons location and name changed, maybe we will end up getting a bigger version of the ride. Although Total Mayhem is not the biggest ride, its still the biggest ride that Six Flags is adding in 2016.

I thought of you Harry while there, on my one Video i have footage of them ripping one of the Original Light Fixtures out of the ground. That actually got me, and made me a little sad. I think me and your rep were only ones left taking pics.

Wait, I was there taking pictures and video from a little before 1:00 until 4:00.

We do need something in-between, but they promoted "El Diablo" as that. So from the Park's point of view, that void has been adressed already.

That's funny that the park thinks that, in my opinion, that ride is more intense than Superman and Nitro.

Thank you Great Adventure for giving Hersheypark a better Christmas event.

I did a lot of digging, and came accross this file.

 

Great Adventure has a permit for "tentative" Fireworks on New Years Eve.

It will be interesting to see where/ how they will shoot them off, with all the construction in that area.

Since when did Cedar Fair decide that they liked vintage rides. They just closed the world oldest stand up coaster (Shockwave) at Kings Dominion, they are removing a classic racing wooden coaster (Thunder Road) at Carowinds, and they removed almost everything old at Dorney.

^ That's what I always thought, why remove the whole structure. If the pool is too much to maintain, just fill it in and have a show there. Off the top of my head, I know Kings Dominion and Cedar Point filled in their pools and still have a non-water show in the venue.

Dan and Shay were added to the list on August 26. It is part of Great Adventures Salute The Troops event.

I was there Fri, Sat, and Sun, and I was very surprised how not crowded the park was on Sat and Sun considering it was a Holiday weekend.

For Lakefront, I would prefer a thrilling roller coaster that stays low to the ground like Maverick. Then we will get a "big" coaster and it will not really obstruct any views of the lake.

Although I told myself that I would never go near the park again around July 4th, I might go this year to watch the fireworks. Just in case if they are removing the grandstands this year. I want to watch a show in it one last time.

Anyone there today? Thinking of making the trip down a bit later and was just wondering about crowds.

A little late, but crowds were terrible today.

I updated the concert list at the beginning of the forum.

It kind of makes sense. It is one of the closest Six Flags parks to Great Adventure. Many people follow both parks. Rocky Mountain is rumored to build our new coaster. Also, I'm sure the management at both SFNE and SFGA have some idea of each parks future plans and may have designed the plane the way they did on purpose.

Does anyone know why all these flowers were in Nitro's station on Saturday?

^^^ I thought of that before. It fits well in the section its in. I don't have a problem with them getting that ride. It will be a good addition to our ride lineup. I have a problem with the park thinking that it is a roller coaster.

1 to 9 is great. Hershey doesn't open until 4 or 5 during the weekdays they are open for Christmas Candylane and 2 on the weekend. With the early opening, it should be hopefully be warm enough for most days to get some coaster rides in if you get there at the beginning of the operating hours.

On the weekends Hershey opens at 12:00 and stays open until 9:00 or 10:00pm. On the weekdays they open at 5:00 and stay open until 9:00 or 10:00pm.

I am interested to see what Great Adventure's weekday hours are.

I hope the Skyway is open. It would be interesting to fly above all of the lights. Since Frontier Adventure wont be open, they can make it a round trip ride from Lakefront.

It looks like they are putting a lot of time into it, and plan on having a good amount of rides open. The only sections that will be open will be the Boardwalk and to the right. I am glad they plan on opening some bigger roller coasters. Sometimes I go to Hershey at Christmas and its 50 degrees and no coasters are open.

Does anyone know what the hours are?

Another show just announced for Memorial Day weekend, May 24: Becky G with Kalin and Myles
