04 · The parks

What each one is.

Sesame Place Langhorne

Sesame Place in Langhorne, Pennsylvania is the original Sesame Street theme park, a short drive north of Philadelphia and aimed squarely at children under ten. It mixes a dry side of family rides such as Oscar's Wacky Taxi Coaster, Vapor Trail Coaster and Elmo's Cloud Chaser with a water park of slides and splash areas, plus daily character parades and shows.

Because the audience is young and the park is small, queues build fast in the middle of the day and thin out again as families leave in the afternoon. Wait times here rarely reach big-park levels, but the crowd calendar will still show you which summer weekends to avoid, and checking live before you arrive helps you decide whether to start on the rides or the water side.

Six Flags Frontier City

Frontier City sits in Oklahoma City and is the smallest of the Six Flags parks, themed around an Old West town. The coaster line-up includes Steel Lasso, Silver Bullet (a Vekoma corkscrew), Diamond Back (a shuttle-style coaster), Wildcat wooden coaster, and Mystery River Log Flume. A White Water Bay water park operates at a separate nearby site during summer.

Oklahoma school holidays, US summer weekends and the Fright Fest event drive Frontier City's peak crowds. Weekdays outside school breaks stay very quiet, often with walk-on queue times. Check live wait times on arrival and use our crowd calendar to pick a midweek visit - Frontier City pairs well with a road-trip stop rather than a destination-park holiday.
