Six Flags Over Georgia Just Became the MVP of Theme Parks—And White Water Atlanta Is the Coolest Spot to Chill

If you’ve been dragging your feet on buying a season pass to Six Flags Over Georgia, here’s your nudge: the 2026 pass is shaping up to be the best deal in the park’s history—and maybe in the entire theme park universe.

In celebration of the Cedar Fair + Six Flags merger anniversary, the newly mega-sized Six Flags Entertainment Corporation is throwing open the gates—literally—to more than 40 parks across the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. That means when you buy a 2026 Gold or Prestige Pass for Six Flags Over Georgia, you’re not just unlocking unlimited rides at your local park and Hurricane Harbor Atlanta. You’re scoring a passport to international coaster chaos for the rest of 2025 and all of 2026.

And yes, that includes all the biggies: Fright Fest, Holiday in the Park, the whole shebang.

A Few Perks Worth Mentioning

• Free parking (no more “Is this lot even official?” drama)
• Bonus 2025 bring-a-friend free tickets
  • One for Gold Pass holders, two for Prestige
• Lowest prices of the year if you buy by Sept. 1
• Access to over 288 roller coasters, 282 family rides, and nearly 1,000 water slides

You can plan a family road trip around it—or just know that your summer weekends are totally covered.

Speaking of summer…

Did You Know Six Flags White Water in Marietta Was Just Crowned #1?

Not “in Georgia.” Not “in the South.” In the entire U.S.

According to travel experts at SIXT, who analyzed everything from ticket prices to crowd levels, Six Flags White Water Atlanta is officially the #1 Most Relaxing Family-Friendly Water Park in America.

Why?

• 40 slides across 69 acres
• $34.99 kids tickets
• Cabanas available for a pretty reasonable $199/day
• Welcomes over 373,000 guests a year, which is enough to be lively but not overrun

It’s the kind of place where kids can wear themselves out on the slides and lazy river while you sip something cold in the shade without paying Ritz-Carlton prices for the privilege.

So yeah, if you’re looking for one last splash before school starts—or a solid excuse to lock in next year’s fun without playing chicken with rising ticket prices—this is your moment.

Grab that Gold or Prestige Pass online at sixflags.com/overgeorgia before Sept. 1, and get ready for a year (and then some) of wild rides, water slides, and maybe even a new favorite park in a different time zone.
