Three months after they were forced to close because of the coronavirus pandemic, Six Flags over Texas and Hurricane Harbor in Arlington are reopening.

Six Flags over Texas will welcome back members and season pass holders on June 19. The park will open to the general public on June 22. Six Flags’ water park Hurricane Harbor will reopen to all visitors June 18.

Governor Greg Abbott announced yesterday that amusement parks and carnivals can reopen on June 19 in a new phase of reopening the state.

Waterparks have been allowed to reopen since May 29, but Hurricane Harbor remained closed.

Visitors must make a reservation in advance online, and the park will use those reservations to stagger arrival times to minimize proximity exposure. They’ll also do temperature screenings on all guests and employees, strictly impose social distancing and sanitize more often throughout the park.
