^ The Town Hall building in that area of the park is being converted into a haunted house for HalloWeekends. -
Kings Island to add “family thrill” attraction in 2026
DiamondbackFan replied to BoddaH1994's topic in Kings Island
Screamscape is wrong. Dollywood is working with Mack Rides. https://parkfans.net/threads/dollywood-project-2026-40th-anniversary-addition.7729/page-5#post-329306 -
Kings Island to add “family thrill” attraction in 2026
DiamondbackFan replied to BoddaH1994's topic in Kings Island
^ Carowinds, Six Flags Magic Mountain, Six Flags Over Texas, and Six Flags Mexico are all under construction and have permits. It looks like Six Flags New England's new for 2025 coaster will be pushed to 2026 due to Intamin issues. Six Flags Great America is unlikely to leak before the announcement and they don't start construction this early. Six Flags Great Adventure is rumored to be delayed a year or changed due to tarriff costs. I am having trouble looking up Kings Island permits because the City of Mason changed their permitting website to a different vendor that isn't as transparent. A handful of odd shipments have appeared. 3 possible B&M shipments for Six Flags Great Escape that docked in Houston and a mystery Six Flags shipment from Vekoma that came off a ship in New York. -

We have. The cages that hold the footer bolts are on site and from Mack Rides. -

Shipping records indicate this is going to be a Vekoma SFC. Two FAA filings show a structure height of 67 ft. -
I am hoping to see Six Flags Great America make the switch from Looney Tunes to Peanuts with the 2026 project.

^ I think there are 6 regional park directors now. It sounds like Jeffrey Siebert and John Krajnak are moving into those roles. They were already running multiple parks. -
Soak City 2025 Construction Updates
DiamondbackFan replied to Hawaiian Coasters 325's topic in Kings Island
No, she is the Regional Director of Public Relations for the Midwest Region. Tony Clark is on her team and covers Cedar Point, Michigan's Adventure, and Six Flags Great America as a Regional Manager of Public Relations. -
A few things from the webcast: Kings Island has the highest market penetration in the entire chain. Fiesta Texas is already a high market penetration park. Need to increase market penetration at Magic Mountain, Over Texas, Over Georgia, Chicago, NJ. They want to boost attendance by at least 10 million at low market penetration parks and think they can get 7 million of that from Magic Mountain, Over Georgia, and Over Texas. Lots of money going to the big five legacy Six Flags parks because they are all underperforming their markets. Thrill and family attactions are planned out for future years at Magic Mountain.
