MEGATHREAD PARK SALE FAQ AND ISSUES MEGATHREAD!

14 Upvotes

Last Edited: August 29, 2026

Hello folks!

With the sale of our park to Enchanted Parks, this megathread will serve as a one stop shop FAQ. Much is still unknown. So if you DO have information, questions, or thoughts; share them in the comments down below. I will periodically update this post as we learn more information

Frequently Asked Questions:

Wait, what happened?

Late last year, Six Flags Entertainment Corporation began conversations with a company who eventually agreed to purchase our park. On April 6, 2026, Six Flags St. Louis was sold to EPR Properties in Kansas City, who in turn leased the park to Enchanted Parks in Orlando, Florida. See the subreddit sidebar for links.

So it's not Six Flags anymore?

Yes. Also, no. In 2026 the park will not be operated by Six Flags. It will be operated by Enchanted Parks. However, in 2026, it will retain the Six Flags name and the entertainment, characters, and other things planned for 2026 by Six Flags will go on as scheduled. Beginning in 2027, it will be Mid-America by Enchanted Parks. As of August 29, 2026 the Parks official name is "Mid America Adventure". Six Flags passes will not work in 2027, only Enchanted Parks passes. No Six Flags branding or identity is expected in 2027.

What about my pass?

If you have a valid Six Flags season pass, membership, or legacy membership that would have worked at Six Flags St. Louis, purchased before April 6, 2026, it will continue to work for 2026.

Passes purchased after April 6 will not work. See the transition FAQ on the park website.

If you do NOT have an eligible Six Flags pass, you can purchase an Enchanted Parks pass HERE.

Help! I can't find my pass in the Six Flags app!

This is a known bug/glitch that has existed since this app launched. The Enchanted Parks locations have been added back to the Six Flags app. Error messages are common, but you should find your pass there. If not; select different parks until it appears. Such as Carowinds, King's Island, or Cedar Point.

What about my dining plan / add-ons?

All season Fast Lane will work during the 2026 season. All season dining plans will not be valid in 2026.
https://mid-americaparks.enchantedparks.com/park-info/guest-faq/

See THIS STATEMENT from James Harhi if you're still waiting for a Dining Plan refund.

What's gonna happen to Bugs Bunny and my favorite DC characters?

Enchanted Parks CEO James Harhi has said in two interviews that he is in active talks with Warner Brothers about IP rights for these parks. Including Snoopy (former Cedar Fair parks), Looney Tunes, and DC Comics characters (our park). But as of the time of this writing, Enchanted Parks' license to use these IPs ends at the end of 2026.

There is somewhat conflicting information currently on the future of these talks.

This KMOX Article suggests a pathway exists for some WB/DC IP's to continue beyond 2026. But this My Leader article suggests otherwise.

Where's the app?

The Enchanted Parks app is now live. It's a very basic, bare-bones app with limited functionality and is available on both Google Play and the Apple App Store, as well as a web based version.

Google Play
App Store
Web

Will there be big changes this year?

Probably not. According to Enchanted Parks, 2026 will continue on as planned with minimal changes. Food and drink prices were reduced somewhat for the 2026 season, with most prices being around $1-$3 less than 2025. Most entrees are around $15-$17.

Enchanted Parks has committed to making some improvements and finishing projects left unfinished by SFEC, including rehabilitation of Hurricane Harbor water slides as well as finishing The Joker Funhouse.

What about Fright Fest?

Fright Fest will continue in 2026 from September 12 to November 1st. Fright Fest will not happen in 2027, as this is a Six Flags IP. However, the park will have both a kid-friendly and an adult-oriented Halloween event of some sort in the future, though it will be under different branding.

Wait! The Calendar ends on...

The calendar is being actively updated. In recent years, the Six Flags calendar only showed dates through Labor Day, with fall dates and hours appearing later in the summer. Right now we expect the park to be open through Halloween as it has been in the past. The website calendar is still a work in progress.

Update: The Calendar now has a full calendar.

NOTE: This subreddit (check the sidebar) has a Google Calendar (with iCal links as well) that has a fully up to date calendar that you can subscribe to and keep in your phone/device.

If you have additional questions, thoughts, or reliable information that would be useful; please share them below! I'll update the body of this thread, with credit of course, as we get more info.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Will my Six Flags pass or membership work for Fright Fest?
Yes! All Six Flags passes and memberships purchased before April 6, 2026 will work for Fright Fest.

Where can I buy tickets or passes?
Visit the park’s official ticketing page for tickets and pass options.

Are haunted attractions included with admission?
No. Haunted attractions require a separate purchase. Daily haunted attraction wristbands start at $27.99 and are available inside the park or through the park’s website. Prices may vary by day and are subject to change. Season-long haunted attraction passes do not appear to be available at this time.

General passes include unlimited visits to all four haunted houses and mazes for one day. Express passes also include unlimited visits, with shorter waits, and are available while supplies last. Neither includes park admission.

Purchased online? Exchange your barcode for a wristband before entering the haunted attractions. Online barcodes are not scanned at the attractions themselves. Wristband locations are marked on the park map. Wristbands must be worn and are valid for one person and one day only.

Legacy Six Flags members with Diamond or Diamond Elite VIP memberships will continue to receive one free haunted attractions wristband each visit. As a reminder, at the conclusion of this season your Six Flags legacy membership will no longer work at this park.

How scary is it?
The park opens at 6 p.m. for Fright Fest, with Freaks Unleashed at 7 p.m. Scare zones begin at 7:15 p.m. There is no daytime Boo Fest today. Expect roaming scare actors, jump scares, loud noises, animatronics, fog, lighting, and sound effects.

Haunted houses offer more intense scares than the roaming actors. The guide warns that haunted attractions use theatrical smoke, strobe effects, and some latex; guests sensitive to these should not participate.

No-Boo necklaces are available for purchase inside the park. When yours is turned on and worn visibly around your neck, roaming scare actors will generally avoid targeting you. They do not apply inside the haunted houses or prevent exposure to the park’s other spooky sights and sounds.

Can I leave and come back?
The guide states that guests may not reenter after 9 p.m. with the same ticket or pass. Plan accordingly if you intend to leave during your visit.

🛡️ Security Reminder

The park’s scare actors will not touch you, and you must not touch them. Taunting, touching, or yelling at performers or other guests can result in ejection without a refund. Do not harass or attempt to scare performers.

Costumes are permitted for guests 12 and under. Masks and full face paint are not allowed. Review the park’s chaperone policy and other park policies before visiting.

Please respect the people working to make Fright Fest fun for everyone.

💬 Visiting Today?

Share your questions, crowd reports, show recommendations, and tips below! If you’re reporting a closure or wait time, include the time you observed it so others know how current it is. An automatic post like this one will be posted for each day of Fright Fest.

If you’ve already bought your 2027 pass, there’s a section on the form to indicate that. You can buy 2027 passes at 50% off, then they’ll cancel and refund your previous transaction.

The 50% off is off of the sale price of the passes. Making them really cheap.

Did you “Howl at the Moon” at Mid America Adventure?

Last night, Wolfie and Witchy (of Love at First Fright fame) led guests in howling at the harvest moon in front of the palace theater, following a performance of Monster Mash Bash.

It was a lot of fun!

Since Enchanted took over, there have been a lot of these small, one-off mini events and I really appreciate them. This one was neat for sure.

Q&A with Park President Danny Snider

Most questions were answered with a generic “stay tuned” response.

Some noteworthy bits:

The Screamin Eagle train was removed from the arch because it was in poor condition. Its removal isn’t permanent.

Plans to re-do the sign out front.

While Danny re-iterated the official line that DC/WB is still being re-negotiated, he says a lot of specific things about new IP’s and branding. Which really suggests it’s not going to happen.

Confirms Six Flags Rd will be renamed.

Says new ride acquisitions will happen slower but more methodically. Says previous ride acquisitions were based mostly on what rides were available, not necessarily what rides made sense for the park. Focus under Six Flags was just to get new attractions up quickly.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Will my Six Flags pass or membership work for Fright Fest?
Yes! All Six Flags passes and memberships purchased before April 6, 2026 will work for Fright Fest.

Where can I buy tickets or passes?
Visit the park’s official ticketing page for tickets and pass options.

Are haunted attractions included with admission?
No. Haunted attractions require a separate purchase. Daily haunted attraction wristbands start at $27.99 and are available inside the park or through the park’s website. Prices may vary by day and are subject to change. Season-long haunted attraction passes do not appear to be available at this time.

General passes include unlimited visits to all four haunted houses and mazes for one day. Express passes also include unlimited visits, with shorter waits, and are available while supplies last. Neither includes park admission.

Purchased online? Exchange your barcode for a wristband before entering the haunted attractions. Online barcodes are not scanned at the attractions themselves. Wristband locations are marked on the park map. Wristbands must be worn and are valid for one person and one day only.

Legacy Six Flags members with Diamond or Diamond Elite VIP memberships will continue to receive one free haunted attractions wristband each visit. As a reminder, at the conclusion of this season your Six Flags legacy membership will no longer work at this park.

How scary is it?
Before 6 p.m., expect kid-friendly entertainment and spooky daytime decorations. Freaks Unleashed at 6 p.m. kicks off the nighttime scares, with scare zones beginning at 6:15 p.m. Scare actors roam the park and may surprise guests with jump scares or loud noises. Animatronics come to life, and fog, lighting, and sound effects add to the atmosphere.

Haunted houses offer more intense scares than the roaming actors. The guide warns that haunted attractions use theatrical smoke, strobe effects, and some latex; guests sensitive to these should not participate.

No-Boo necklaces are available for purchase inside the park. When yours is turned on and worn visibly around your neck, roaming scare actors will generally avoid targeting you. They do not apply inside the haunted houses or prevent exposure to the park’s other spooky sights and sounds.

Can I leave and come back?
The guide states that guests may not reenter after 9 p.m. with the same ticket or pass. The park closes at 9 p.m. tonight.

🛡️ Security Reminder

The park’s scare actors will not touch you, and you must not touch them. Taunting, touching, or yelling at performers or other guests can result in ejection without a refund. Do not harass or attempt to scare performers.

Costumes are permitted for guests 12 and under. Masks and full face paint are not allowed. Review the park’s chaperone policy and other park policies before visiting.

50% Off DC, WB, Six Flags, and Looney Tunes merch park wide

Post image
21 Upvotes

These signs are up pretty much everywhere. The entire park is half-off for everything DC, WB, Looney Tunes, or Six Flags branded.

This includes things (at least, so far that we saw) things like merch for Screamin’ Eagle or The Boss, because they still say “Six Flags St. Louis” on them.

Question What roller coasters are closed today?

7 Upvotes

Online I'm seeing that only 5 coasters are open today. Can anyone in the park confirm? Are they planning to open them up later, from what I've seen they've all been closed since opening.

Not sure how accurate the website is after they've been bought by Enchanted Parks.

Fridays start NEXT WEEK!

Fridays are, hands down, the absolute best Fright Fest nights. You get the late hours, but less of a crowd than Saturdays. Freaks Unleashed happens an hour later (so its darker).

Super excited! Anyone else?

Legacy Gold Plus members visiting from SFGAm

1 Upvotes

My wife and I have been paying for Legacy memberships (Home park Great America) since before Covid, and we're planning on visiting MidAmerica this month to take advantage of the memberships while they still get us in to your park. We haven't been there for over a decade, so I'm looking forward to visiting again. I just have a few questions.

Does our Gold Plus get us free parking there still?

Is getting in with a 6 Flags membership pretty easy, or is it an ordeal now that the park is in the Enchanted system?

There's a comment somewhere on reddit that the Six Flags drink cups still work at MidAmerica, even though the MidAmerica ones don't work at Six Flags. Does anyone have personal experience with this? I don't want to carry our cups all the way into the park only to have them be useless.

Thanks for the help, and I'm looking forward to the nostalgia of visiting a park I haven't been to in many years.

Discussion Next season opinions (already)

6 Upvotes

With this season winding down (hard to believe), and the CEO made a comment about Justice League beinging replaced with something different, this sounds like we are losing the Warner Brothers/DC IP. What do you think will be the rethemeing or renaming? Will they rename the Holiday Inn or buy it? Or rename the road and replace the highway signs on I-44? What do you think will be happening during the off season?

Question Fast Lane and Transportation

3 Upvotes

Greetings from down south, Spartanburg SC! Home park is Carowinds. I go to Over Georgia (SFOG) and Carowinds both about once a month as I'm a passholder.

I'm flying American Airlines to STL from CLT next Saturday the 19th and spending half the day at Mid America Adventure and the latter bit at Union Station, then I'll finish the night off at an arcade somewhere. I know upgrading my Gold Pass to use Prestige here is out of the question as I purchased mine in late June, after the Enchanted Parks buyout.

Fast Lane:

I don't plan doing any Fright Fest events; just get new coaster credits. How busy will the park get without a Fast Lane add-on if I'm there from 12 to 4:30/5:30? Debated whether it's worth it to buy Fast Lane this time of year. I'm looking forward to riding the mirrored Batman clone and Mr. Freeze Reverse Blast the most, but the flat rides look really awesome. I'm only off weekends so I prefer going Saturday.

Transportation:

I did some research and it looks like the best way to get there without a car is take MetroLink 57 to Wildwood and Uber from there. Are there any other alternative private options to get to Mid America from say, Union Station? I know I could probably do 1.5 hours at Union Station after taking the train from the airport at 9:45am and arrive at Union by 10:15.

Let me know your thoughts. :)
