Six Flags Over Georgia is set to reopen on June 15 after closing its doors mid-March to slow the spread of COVID-19, the company Monday announced on its social media.
Members and Season Pass Holders will be the first group allowed to revisit the amusement park with “exclusive preview days” through June 21.
Six Flags will reopen to the general public on June 22 and its neighboring waterpark White Water will come back online on July 3 (preview days will be June 29 through July 2).
“We’ve implemented new safety measures and hygiene protocols, including new technology systems to protect our guests and employees,” the company posted to its website this week.
“It’s time to get reacquainted with the Thrill Capital of the South!”
Reservations are required and can be made here.
“To assist with our social distancing guidelines and attendance flow, we’re employing an online reservation system to schedule guests for entry by day and to stagger arrival times to minimize proximity exposure,” according to the Six Flags website.
Members wishing to make a reservation will need to provide the day and approximate time they wish to visit and watch a “brief video describing new social distancing and sanitization procedures,” among other things.
Amusement parks are one of the latest remaining non-essential business to reopen in Georgia.
Bars and nightclubs were allowed to resurface as of Monday, June 1.

Good reporting. People will vote with their wallets. Businesses that are using due diligence to protect their employees and customers will be rewarded; many will make it. Perhaps, the ones who do not deserve not. What’s a livelihood without lives?!
