Six Flags Over Texas is a seasonal amusement park, so the first question is not what to ride but whether the park is open on the day you have in mind. The season starts with Opening Weekend at the end of February, and the year then runs through summer into two evening seasons: the autumn Fright Fest dates, which fall inside an ordinary day ticket with the haunted mazes sold as an add-on, and Holiday in the Park in the weeks around Christmas. The newest ride, Tormenta: Rampaging Run, a giga dive coaster, opened in the Spain area in July 2026. Tickets are bought for a specific date and the discounted rates are online only, with a processing fee added at checkout. Parking is paid and comes in a general and a closer, more expensive tier, and it can be bought in advance rather than at the booth. For food inside the park, Étienne’s Café in the France area is one of the counter-service stops, serving loaded beignets, funnel cake fries and pull-apart bread.
