Jersey's big coasters, for less
Fright Fest runs on select days through Nov 1, 2026. Holiday in the Park comes back in November, but the park hasn't posted the dates yet.
Kingda Ka is gone. It was torn down in 2025, and Bakunawa, a 382-foot, 100-mph spinning launch coaster, takes its place in 2027. No opening date yet.
Never pay $90 at the gate. The same day ticket is $45 online, plus a processing fee of up to $9.99.
Parking is $45 a car. If you'll come twice between now and the end of 2027, the $115 Gold Pass with free parking already wins. Six Flags says the price goes up Nov 2.

My take: for one visit, Tripster's $35 ticket is the cheapest. For two or more, get the Gold Pass and stop paying $45 to park.– John

Tickets are only half the bill here. Here's a fall day for a family of four, buying smart.
No. Outside food and drinks aren't allowed, except baby food in non-glass jars and food for medical or allergy needs (small amounts in a small soft cooler; ask security for a medical sticker). No outside alcohol. This comes from Tripster's park guide, so check the park's Code of Conduct before you pack.
Select days through Nov 1, 2026. The Fright Fest Bundle adds the haunted mazes to admission from $80 online, and you can add Express.
Returns in November 2026 and is included with the 2027 Gold Pass. Dates aren't posted yet.
FlexPay lets you split select orders of $49 or more.
Parking costs as much as a ticket here. Two visits and the Gold Pass has paid for itself.– John
Buy online. The $45 ticket is half the $90 gate price, and still far cheaper after the fee.
Coming back even once? The $115 Gold Pass covers parking, which is $45 a visit by itself.
Buying passes for the family? Six Flags lists a $99-each price when you buy several Gold Passes.
Already have a pass? Renew by Nov 1 for $89 and get a free Bring-A-Friend ticket.
Military families can get in from $39 online after verifying with ID.me.
No. As of October 2026 there's no working code. The discount is the online price: $45 vs $90 at the gate, plus a processing fee of up to $9.99.
General parking is $45 a day and preferred is $65. Gold Pass holders park free.
If you'll go twice, yes. Two visits with parking cost $180 for one person. The Gold Pass is $115 and covers the rest of 2026 plus all of 2027, parking included.
Six Flags says Nov 2, 2026. Renew by Nov 1 to also get a free Bring-A-Friend ticket.
No. It was torn down in 2025. Bakunawa, a 382-foot spinning launch coaster, replaces it in 2027. No opening date yet.
Only baby food or food for medical needs. Everything else has to be bought inside, and the park is cashless.
