Beloved Six Flags amusement park to close its doors in 2027

  • California’s Great America theme park in Santa Clara will permanently close following a final Farewell Season in 2027.
  • The park's final operating season will run from March through Labor Day on September 6, 2027.
  • First opened in 1976 as Marriott's Great America, the park became part of Six Flags after its 2024 merger with Cedar Fair.
  • The closure follows Six Flags' decision not to renew its land lease after Cedar Fair sold the 112-acre property to real estate firm Prologis for $310 million in 2022.
  • Group outings and events will continue throughout 2027, with full operational calendars to be released at a later date.
