Six Flags Fright Fest is scarier than ever this Halloween

Six Flags has announced the return of Six Flags Fright Fest — and the company’s signature Halloween event is better, bigger, and scarier than ever.

After taking 2020 off, Fright Fest is returning in 2021 in all its horrifying glory with haunted mazes, new Halloween-themed shows, live band performances, scareactors prowling the midways, and thrilling monster rides in the dark.

“When it comes to Halloween, our guests tell us that Fright Fest is always at the top of their ‘must-do’ list,” said Senior Vice President of Operations Bonnie Weber. “After a one-year hiatus, our entertainment teams have created an immersive and thrilling experience while also adhering to jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction safety protocols.”

Six Flags guests will be able to experience “Thrills by Day” and “Fright by Night” with daytime Trick-or-Treat trails, story-telling, interactive dance parties, and pictures with the Looney Tunes characters in their Halloween costumes (costumes are permitted for guests 12 and under).

But everything changes when the sun goes down. In the dark, midways are transformed with scarier-than-life theming and innovative special effects to create movie-like haunted attractions. Fright Fest is not recommended for kids aged 12 and under after 6 p.m.
