Austell, GA — Six Flags Over Georgia is a theme park in Austell, Georgia, with Hurricane Harbor Atlanta inside the park.

In a Nutshell

Goliath has been closed since the October incident Six Flags calls tragic, and the company says the coaster “remains closed pending necessary safety reviews and clearances.” Six Flags began a ride safety review across all its parks with independent engineering and inspection specialists, and Holiday in the Park returns Nov. 21, 2026, after skipping 2025, with three new themed lands. In January 2027, Six Flags buys the remaining limited partner interests in Six Flags Over Georgia and Six Flags White Water, and Georgia Gold Rusher, closed all of 2026, returns in 2027.
