Six Flags has just announced that due to COVID-19 it looks like they won’t be able to open the park untill mid-May at best. They are doing this to ensure the safety of Team Members as well as guests.
For guests with prepaid tickets, the valid dates have been extended to the end of the 2020 season. For current 2020 Season Pass Holders, passes will be extended for the number of operating days the park is temporarily closed. Six Flags Great Adventure Members will receive a month for each month that the park is closed, plus a free Membership level upgrade for the rest of the 2020 Season and other bonus benefits, as applicable.
