lol world politics has nothing to do with whether or not a coaster gets announced. I'm thinking they announce this next month.
Sept 11th through Halloween? Plus 16th is a Thursday and they are only open to 6pm.
The Six Flags parks have changed the way they announce new attractions with no "all parks" announcement anymore, partly so each park can decide when works best for them, and partly because each park isn't necessarily getting something new each year anymore so some parks may skip a year or two to save for bigger things. Overall it sounds like the park management is getting more leeway from corporate. I think Fiesta Texas is the new model for the whole chain with all kinds of improvements as well as new attractions based on what makes the most sense for their market.
This is the way it should be. SFMM would benefit especially from this. They would be better off just saving up for bigger additions rather than being forced to add something every year.
I think one of the best things is seeing parks reinvesting in existing attractions when it makes sense. SFFT just did a retheme/relaunch of their Poltergeist coaster and it goes a long way to make the park better.
It’s Magic Mountain. Never expect an announcement.
Magic Mountain’s social media team is kind of a joke. For example: just recently they had that big buildup for the new 2022 ride with a coaster countdown. That was almost 3 weeks ago with nothing said since. You would think they’d do the countdown and 2022 reveal back-to-back instead of waiting and killing the hype.
