Better Entertainment, Better Service, Better Value and Close To Home
In an ever-tightening economy, families are looking for the best value for their entertainment dollar and Six Flags St. Louis is responding by lowering main gate and online ticket prices $10.00, effective immediately. Guests can now visit the theme park any day, for just $34.99 at the main gate or $29.99 online without searching for a coupon or special offer.
"At a time when costs for everyday commodities and conveniences are on the rise, Six Flags St. Louis is offering our guests an unbeatable family entertainment value that is close to home," said Dave Roemer, President of Six Flags St. Louis. "We are lowering prices, while offering more concerts, more in-park entertainment, an incredible new roller coaster and a FREE water park."
On June 20, Six Flags St. Louis is launching Evel Knievel, a new wooden roller coaster that pays tribute to the legendary daredevil. This one-of-a-kind coaster offers intense thrills including a 55-ft double down drop, 14-crossovers, camel backs and high-banked turns packed into an 8-story tall, 2,700-ft. track.
Six Flags St. Louis is also proud to bring back the immensely popular Starburst® Thursday Night Concert Series and introduce a new series, Sunday Rocks! presented by DanceDanceRevolution® featuring some of today's hottest tween and teen acts like Raven, Mario, Aly and AJ and Demi Lovato. In addition, local bands will be performing live each Wednesday, Friday and Saturday night in the park.
Six Flags St. Louis is the only theme park in the Midwest to offer its 12-acre water park FREE with theme park admission. Hurricane Harbor features a lazy river, speed slides, water thrill rides, a wave pool and a kid's area at no additional cost. Guests get two great parks, now at an even lower price, for an even greater value.
"With our longest season and lowest prices in 10 years, we are providing unlimited fun and intense thrills for the entire family at unprecedented value," stated Roemer.
