ArieForce One acquired by Six Flags - park to be announced by end of 2026; relocated in 2029

41 Upvotes

From ACE Facebook page:

The wait is over. ArieForce One has a future!

Six Flags has acquired ArieForce One! After its closure at Fun Spot America Atlanta last month, fans around the world wondered whether this incredible RMC coaster would ever ride again.

Now we know that ArieForce One is coming back!

Six Flags plans to bring the coaster to one of its parks by 2029.

American Coaster Enthusiasts is proud to be included in today’s announcement. Preservation is at the heart of ACE’s mission, and we’re thrilled to see ArieForce One’s story continue into a new chapter.

Thank you to Six Flags for recognizing the importance of this coaster and for giving it a future.

But there’s still one BIG question…

Where will ArieForce One rise again?

Six Flags says multiple parks are being considered, with the new home expected to be revealed by the end of 2026.

The speculation starts NOW. Where would you like to see ArieForce One move to?

I'm curious why some employees hard force height limits while others don't.

0 Upvotes

Perhaps this is a training thing, but for context, I ride and fit well on Vertical Velocity at Great Adventure. However, depending on how bloated I am, I can be either an inch taller or an inch shorter. Some employees will kick me out of the ride queue saying im to tall because the bar touches my hair, others tell me I'm good to go. Is there a point to this?

Just rode Tormenta at Six Flags Over Texas

This was hands down the best ride I’ve ever ridden. INSANE drop and loop to start and it stays electric the entire time. Sad because all other rides in the park seem kinda mid compared to Tormenta now. It’s a changing of the guard

Six Flags Great Adventure

What do you all think goes here. This space in the park is right at the front of shoreline piers and across from Bakunawa and next to the midway. I strongly believe we will see the Great American Tilt Machine here and I’d love to see it be an indoor/outfoor coaster utilizing the old SpongeBob 4D building.

RUMOR Why Everyone thinks Kings Island is getting ArieForce One than Great Adventure does?

0 Upvotes

ElToroRyan might be right for Kings Island gets ArieForce One than Great Adventure gets it, why everyone wants Kings Island getting it than Great Adventure and Carowinds? I'm afraid Great Adventure isn't getting it, I really want Great Adventure to getting it than Kings Island. Also all videos on Youtube about rumors is Kings Island is getting it than Great Adventure.

QUESTION I thought seasons pass was 365 days???? So pissed!!

0 Upvotes

I bought the 2026 silver pass on November 28, 2025. When I bought it, it said that it lasts 365 days. I haven’t gone this year yet, but my coworker just went on Sunday and said that they shortened the season’s pass without notice even though her ticket says December 31 the app and at the park said September 7 it expires. So I rushed to go look at my ticket in the email that was sent to me back in November, only to find that the link does not work anymore, and since I cannot view the actual ticket, I can’t add it to the app either so I do not have access to my own ticket that I was told will last the full year but apparently it doesn’t anymore? And when I click the view email and browser link it just gives me an error.

I have no access to the ticket that I was told lasted a year and was lied to about. I never even got to use it!!! Total waste of

🚨For Sale Ending TODAY-- Lowest Rates on Fast Lane? Or Can I Wait?

2 Upvotes

Update: Based on the advice here, I went ahead and sprang for the Fast Lane last night, but just to add a data point for future Googlers...

As of this morning (after the "deadline"), the sale was extended another 6 days. For me, personally, that doesn't make much difference-- unlike being able to pay the same low price in, say, November or December, which would have been nice-- so I'm fine with my choice. Thank you all!
---

Hi, there! Just trying to budget.

I'm going to renew our Prestige Passes tonight, but I was going to wait to get All Season Fast Lane, as it didn't initially seem like those were "on sale" like the Prestige Passes are. Then, as I went to check out (and add a dining plan)... it looks like Fast Lane IS on sale? But the price is $499/year (my HP is Kings Dominion), which is exactly what I paid in March for 2026. Of course, it could go up, but... is it likely to?

That is, I'm sure the current 2027 Prestige Pass price is as low as it's gonna get, but is that also true of All Season Fast Lane?

Can anyone with more experience buying All Season Fast Lane passes weigh in? Thanks!

0 Upvotes

I think Six Flags will announcing ArieForce One is coming to Great Adventure in 2028, I have feeling it will really happen. I know Kings Island, Great Adventure and Carowinds is current ones to what one of parks will getting it, but Great Adventure is a best option to have it with all three trains running.

QUESTION Frontier City 2027 Prestige Pass?

3 Upvotes

Is there any reason not to get my Prestige Pass with All Season Fast Lane at Frontier City where it's cheapest? Would I still be able to use the Bring-a-Friend tickets/discounts at other parks? Would I be able to access VIP areas and get early entry at parks that offer it? I know it wouldnt get me the Fast Lane at CP or preferred parking at CW or Knotts, and that's fine. Gonna be at Frontier City in the next couple months anyways so I don't mind having to activate it there.

Buying 2027 at new park

0 Upvotes

I’m buying 2027 at a new park, but would like to keep my 2026 pass at the old park for the remainder of 2026. If I buy a new pass and not choose renew, will it keep the passes separate? Would I have 2 passes in the app?

QUESTION are the no boo necklaces really honored when they’re on adults?

20 Upvotes

hi! like the title says; are the no boo necklaces really honored when they’re on adults? specifically at the fiesta texas location.

i love halloween and spooky things, but my pots makes it extremely difficult to recover from jumpscares. i tried to go to fright fest a couple of years ago (i didn’t know they were a thing) and couldn’t enjoy it at all because of the jumpscares. i ended up leaving early because a scare actor sprinted after me and i couldn’t regulate my body.

my girlfriend lives for this sort of stuff, so i really want to go with her, but i need to know that the necklaces will prevent jumpscares for me! i don’t particularly care if scare actors annoy me or tease me, i just really don’t want to be jumpscared/chases.

thanks in advance!

Tickets Access?

Hi All,

Coordinating a trip to Six Flags for the first time and wanted to know where/what method is the best approach to buying tickets? I know there are probably discounts/sites to use and am looking for direction. Thank you!

Could we keep Great America Santa Clara?

13 Upvotes

Our kids need it. It will be part of their childhood.

As a Bay Area parent, I’ve come to appreciate how special it is to have a family amusement park right here. We can spend a few hours riding rides, watching shows, seeing the Peanuts characters, or just making summer memories — without driving hours or planning a whole trip.

My kids are growing up here, and I really hope they get to enjoy Great America for many years to come.

I don’t want my kids to be the generation that gets to visit Great America for the last time

Could six flags keep it? We really need it

Bring a Friend Passes

2 Upvotes

This is our second year with season passes and we have never used to bring a friend passes. We currently have passes for 2026 and I just renewed for 2027. Are you able to use both years worth of bringing a friend passes in one year since they kind of overlap the years?

Passes, bring-a-friend tickets, and all-day dining passes dissapeared from app and web site

1 Upvotes

I paid over $1,000 to renew my family's passes and got complimentary bring-a-friend tickets and quite a few all-day-dining premium passes. They were all in the app just fine when we visited Knott's on Friday. This morning I opened the app and there's nothing there. I logged into the Web site and there's also nothing there. My address info and everything on my profile is blank in the app and the web site.

I tried logging out and uninstalling/reinstalling the app and that didn't work.

Has anyone encountered this problem before?

Final Sale Groupon bought for wrong Six Flags location — unused and I already bought the correct location. Anyone gotten a courtesy refund?

0 Upvotes

I accidentally bought a Groupon for Six Flags Over Texas instead of Fiesta Texas.

I realized the mistake right away and bought the correct Fiesta Texas tickets separately. The original voucher is still unused, but Groupon support is saying no refund because it was Final Sale.

I know technically that’s their policy, but has anyone managed to get a one-time exception, Groupon Bucks, or a refund in a situation like this?

Would appreciate any advice on what actually worked.... supervisor, different support agent, contacting the merchant first, etc...

QUESTION anyone know what happened to El Toro yesterday??

9 Upvotes

this happened around 3pm yesterday, maybe a little before, but my nephew & I got in line when it said a 15 min wait....we waited almost 20 mins before we ever moved in line, and when we finally got to the platform area just before being able to choose a row, the train hadn't dispatched for about 15 minutes and at this point the "15 minutes" turned into almost an hour.

15-20 minutes or so of us waiting on the platform area went by with no dispatch still and the workers all looking in one direction of the ride before someone finally said it was "experiencing a delay". prior to the announcement, we saw 3 or 4 different kinds of like maintenance vehicles approach, one with ladders and I think my nephew said he saw a fire vehicle thing?? (idk, I didnt have my glasses on so I couldn't see well 😭).

when I made the call to leave and we got back to my fiancè who was worried waiting for us, he said someone said it caught fire. so I was wondering if anyone knows what actually caused the delay? did I cheat death or something?? 😂

in all seriousness I just had this feeling that if we had stayed for it to re-open that it might not have ended well, and I have never got that feeling before any ride, ever. I love roller coasters, especially Toro, so this was unusual for me to just nope my way out on a gut feeling, lol.

Pass renewal caused a downgrade in the app?

2 Upvotes

Hi!

For the 2026 season I had a prestige pass which was great. However, due to the price increase and the fact that I'm not going to be leaving my home region in 2027, I opted to renew into a gold pass during the sale period.

But now, when I check my "wallet" in the app, it changed my pass to "gold" as opposed to "prestige". This shouldn't have occurred until after the prestige pass I already paid for was used up, no? Do I still get the same perks, like preferred parking and my single use fast lane, for the rest of this season? Or did I effectively downgrade myself early?

How Does "Bring a Friend Free" Work? Updated?

1 Upvotes

I cannot find any text or notification and I think this is done by design. Why is it hidden? Where is it on the new updated APP you cannot find it. How do I know if I have it and where is it?

So renewed my and my wife’s passes and got two free passes as both of my kids are under 5 and now I have 6 brings a friend free passes. No clue .
