Six Flags Over Georgia, nestled in Austell just outside Atlanta, Georgia, boasts the title of “Thrill Capital of the South” for a reason. Since its opening in 1967, this Six Flags park has been providing adrenaline-pumping coasters, family-friendly rides, and exciting shows for generations. Whether you’re a coaster enthusiast seeking heart-stopping drops or a parent planning a fun day out with the kids, Six Flags Over Georgia has something for everyone.

Discover A Southern Six Flags Experience

Established in 1967, Six Flags Over Georgia was the second park to bear the Six Flags name. The park’s name pays homage to the six flags that have flown over Georgia throughout its history: Spain, France, Great Britain, the United States, the Confederate States, and Georgia. Over the years, the park has expanded to include over 40 rides and attractions, a water park, and more themed areas like Gotham City and Screampunk, making it a premier destination for thrill-seekers and families alike.

Enjoy Roller Coasters for Every Dare Devil
