Parks
Six Flags Entertainment Corporation, the world’s largest

scareactors prowling the midways; and thrilling, monster

“When it comes to Halloween, our guests tell us that Fright Fest
is always at the top of their ‘must-do’ list,” said Senior Vice
President of Operations Bonnie Weber. “After a one-year hiatus, our
entertainment teams have created an immersive and thrilling
experience, while also adhering to jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction
safety protocols,” added Weber.
Fright Fest offers Thrills by Day and Fright by Night. By
day, little ghosts and goblins can enjoy Trick-or-Treat trails,
story-telling, interactive dance parties, and pictures with the
Looney Tunes characters in Halloween overdress. Offerings will vary
by park and costumes are permitted for guests 12 and under.
By night, park midways transform into fog-filled mazes of
sinister sights and sounds. Scarier-than-life theming and
innovative special effects combine to create movie-like haunted
attractions. Fright Fest is so scary it is NOT recommended for
children 12 and under after 6 p.m.
SNICKERS® returns as the presenting sponsor of Fright
Fest bringing scary haunted houses, Trick-or-Treat trails, and
the annual Very Important Zombie Sweepstakes to guests across the
nation. For a limited time only, guests at select parks can also
enjoy special Fright Fest food and beverage offerings like
the Funnel Scream Cake featuring SNICKERS®, a Fright Fest
favorite, or the new Frightening Fanta® Fizz drink made with Fanta®
Orange, candy corn syrup, whipped cream and sprinkles, available in
a limited-edition souvenir cup.
Six Flags, Coca-Cola®, and Fanta® have also teamed up to deliver
innovative augmented reality experiences to park guests this year.
These web-based AR experiences will be available at select Six
Flags locations, either by scanning onsite QR codes or a Six Flags
drink bottle. Each of the four featured experiences will reveal a
hidden “scare” within the Fright Fest-inspired AR scenes
that allow users to create spine-shivering, sharable content.
Guests can even visit the Fanta® photobooth experience inside the
parks, which puts users into the middle of a zombie attack.
