Six Flags continues
to bring the visitors
in its 52nd season

Six Flags Over Georgia
opened its 52nd season in
March 2019 by hosting the
biggest Opening Day Pep
Rally Ever.
One way guests had fun at
Six Flags this season was by
riding the park’s newest attraction,
Pandemonium. The
tallest swinging pendulum
ride in the Southeast, located
in the all-new Scream-
Punk-themed area, debuted
in late spring.
“We’re talking about 15
stories high,” park spokesperson
Divina Mims said.
“It takes riders 147 feet in
the air and reaches speeds of
70 miles per hour. It whips
them back and forth and
they swing higher and higher,
turning counterclockwise.”
Pandemonium is the
centerpiece of the new
ScreamPunk area.
“(ScreamPunk) is our
creative take on the popular
Steampunk genre that’s
popular now combining
science fantasy with industrial
steam-powered machinery.
It’s perfect for roller coasters,
sky buckets and Thunder
River, and all those amazing
rides that are going to be in
this new location,” Mims said.
Through a partnership
with Warner Bros. Consumer
Products and DC
Comics, two additional rides
are scheduled for the 2020
season in the Gotham City
section of Six Flags Over
Georgia, expanding that area
to seven rides.
The new Catwoman Whip
and Poison Ivy Toxic Twister
attractions will be operating
in summer 2020 and bring
with them revamped food
and shopping locations, according
to the theme park.
In addition to its regular
season, Six Flags also
offers special openings
of the park for its annual
Fright Fest and Holiday in
the Park celebrations.
