About each park

Six Flags New England

Six Flags New England sits in Agawam, Massachusetts, near the Connecticut state line. The coaster line-up includes Superman: The Ride (consistently rated one of the world's best steel coasters), Wicked Cyclone (a Rocky Mountain Construction hybrid), Goliath inverted coaster, Flashback, Joker 4D Free Fly Coaster, and the classic Thunderbolt. A Hurricane Harbor water park is included with admission.

Massachusetts and Connecticut school holidays, Fright Fest and US summer weekends drive Six Flags New England's peak crowds. Weekdays in May, September and October stay dramatically calmer. Check live wait times for Superman and Wicked Cyclone on arrival, and use our crowd calendar to pick a midweek date - queue times on most rides drop into single digits on quieter days.

Worlds Of Fun

Worlds of Fun is a theme park in Kansas City, Missouri, opened in 1973 and now run under the Six Flags banner. The park covers 235 acres with themed areas based on continents and a varied coaster line-up: Mamba (a 205-foot Morgan hyper coaster), Prowler (a GCI wooden coaster), Patriot (an inverted coaster), and Timber Wolf. An Oceans of Fun water park operates on the same site in summer.

Kansas City school holidays and the Halloween Haunt drive Worlds of Fun's peak crowds, particularly weekend days in July, August and October. Weekdays in May, September and early October are much quieter. Check live queue times for Mamba and Prowler before committing, and use our crowd calendar to pick a lower-crowd midweek date for shorter waits.
