Six Flags Entertainment Corporation
Six Flags Entertainment Corporation is a leading multinational amusement park company headquartered in Charlotte, North Carolina, with significant administrative offices in Sandusky, Ohio. Formed on July 1, 2024, through a merger of equals between Cedar Fair and the former Six Flags company, its core mission is to create and deliver thrilling and memorable experiences for guests of all ages, while providing a safe, clean, and family-friendly environment.
The company's portfolio includes 21 amusement parks, 14 separately-gated water parks, and nine on-site resorts across North America, along with two managed parks in Saudi Arabia. Six Flags offers a diverse range of entertainment, from world-class roller coasters and water attractions to live shows and themed areas, leveraging intellectual properties such as Looney Tunes, DC Comics, and Peanuts. Its market strategy primarily targets families with children, teenagers, and young adults seeking high-thrill experiences and accessible, cost-effective entertainment within a regional radius of its parks.
In recent developments, Six Flags completed the divestment of seven parks to EPR Properties for $331 million in April 2026, a strategic move to optimize its portfolio and reduce debt. John Reilly was appointed President and Chief Executive Officer in December 2025, and Richard Haddrill became Executive Chairman of the Board in March 2026, guiding the company's post-merger strategy and market positioning as North America's largest regional amusement park operator.
