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.
