The countdown to coaster season is underway in New Jersey as Six Flags Great Adventure prepares to reopen later this month with a series of upgrades and new attractions.
The park is set to reopen to the public on March 28, with a season passholder preview night scheduled for March 27 from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m.
With opening day approaching, crews are working on final preparations across the park, including both visible construction and behind-the-scenes improvements.
“As we kind of move into the season, there’s a lot of different celebrations, a lot of different things occurring that required us to upgrade different things throughout the park,” said Ryan Eldredge, public relations manager.

Among the updates is a newly installed track on a section of the wooden coaster El Toro, which should provide a smoother ride experience. Park officials also said Wi-Fi service has been improved, dining areas have been refreshed with new menu items and a new “Best of the West: Smokehouse” has been added. Upgrades are also underway at the Main Street Pub, along with a new Main Street stage for live entertainment.
Additional work includes an expansion of the Boardwalk area near the Superman ride, aimed at creating a Jersey Shore-style atmosphere. That project is expected to be completed around Memorial Day.
The park will also launch a Safari Spring Break celebration from March 28 through April 12, featuring animal encounters, entertainment and interactive experiences.
Looking ahead, construction is also underway on a new roller coaster, currently just referred to as the “Purple Monster,” which park officials say will be a “record-breaking” ride expected to open in 2027. The project is part of what the company describes as a multi-year investment plan.
