Hold up. It’s May. Are we talking about the holiday season? Yes, yes we are. But wait! We’ve got good reason to. Six Flags Over Georgia just made a huge announcement. They’re bringing their iconic holiday festival back… and it’s going to be completely new! Keep scrolling for all the details on the ‘Holiday in the Park!’
What is Holiday in the Park?
Holiday in the Park is Six Flags over Georgia’s iconic annual holiday event: think dazzling live shows, thrilling rides, and tons of holiday decor and lights.
Last year, Six Flags Over Georgia cancelled the ‘Holiday in the Park’ event, which disappointed tons of fans. But don’t worry!
This year, Holiday in the Park is back, and completely new.
Kelly Daugherty, entertainment director for Six Flags, said in a statement,
This event is about wrapping our guests in warmth, wonder and joy the moment they step through the gates. Every detail—from the lighting and décor to the music, characters and shows—has been carefully designed to feel emotionally rich, playful, and celebratory. We wanted each land to feel like you’ve stepped inside a holiday dream, where traditions feel familiar but the experience is fresh, awe-inspiring and full of heart.
So… what’s new?
Well, everything!
In addition to expansive themed environments, guests can enjoy interactive holiday experiences including photos with Santa Claus, a family‑friendly indoor walk‑through attraction, cookie decorating, gingerbread house building, festive photo opportunities and seasonal tasting menus curated by each park’s executive chef.
And now they’re adding even more live entertainment than ever before, including:
- nightly tree lighting spectaculars
- carolers
- parade floats
- indoor mainstage shows
And so. much. more.
Adding to the magic, many thrill rides and kids’ areas will remain open, allowing guests to soar and spin by day—and experience the beauty of holiday lights on nighttime rides. Operating dates, hours, show lineup and ride details will be announced at a later time, with schedules designed to maximize daytime warmth, evening sparkle and holiday togetherness.
So if you were bummed about the Holiday in the Park cancellation last year, you’ve got even more reason to check it out this year!
