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 St Louis

Six Flags St. Louis sits in Eureka, Missouri, 30 minutes south-west of downtown St. Louis. The coaster line-up includes Mr. Freeze: Reverse Blast, Boss (a large wooden coaster), Superman: Tower of Power drop tower, American Thunder wooden coaster, and Batman: The Ride. A Hurricane Harbor water park is included with admission during summer.

Missouri school holidays, Fright Fest and Holiday in the Park events drive Six Flags St. Louis's peak crowds. Weekdays in May, September and October stay much calmer, with queue times on most rides dropping into single digits. Check live wait times for Boss and Mr. Freeze first thing on arrival, and use our crowd calendar to pick a quieter midweek date for marathon coaster sessions.
