What's up Flavor Budz!! So, it's been a minute since I've been to Six Flags. I was feeling the burn, seriously, walked for hours! But anything for my niece, she wanted to be there for her birthday, so there we were. The family showed up and showed out for my baby girl. She and her closest girlfriends had a blast. The park wasn't crowded, so they got through lines pretty quick. The park is still in good shape, most rides are running, I just didn't realize how hilly it was! Eh! Good thing I had my cute walking shoes on, auntie was cute! Ok! My hubby upgraded our day pass, so Six Flags, I'll be back! P.S. If you're interested, upgrade your day pass inside the park for $50 a ticket. You get access to all four parks: Knott's Soak City, Six Flags, and Hurricane Harbor! - You're welcome read more

For context, this is for my experience back in January 2024, my second or third visit to the park. For someone who loved thrill rides, it is indeed a coaster paradise (loved Tatsu, Full Throttle, X2 in particular). Couldn't get on Twisted Colossus due to size, barely got on Batman. But that isn't why I'm rating this low. No, I'm rating this low because of how the park responded to lost/found items. Fast forward to 2025 briefly; got a Disney pass, lost some Sunglasses on Splash mountain ride, got them back within the week, despite being lost on an obscure part of the ride. So what happened in January then? I was riding the dueling coasters based on cars. A fun concept, truly. Was really enjoying myself... until we stopped back into the station. I do blame myself for losing my phone after stupidly placing it in my back pocket of my pants; the phone slipped out during one of the loops in the second half of the ride, landing in an obscure part of the park below the tracks. However, I certainly do not blame myself for what happened after, but on the park: Once I got home 60 miles later, I uploaded the phone's location via Find My to the park's lost and found website, along with a link to a POV video where the loss approximately took place. A report was made shortly after. Fast forward to July of that year: I'm at my work's conference, and get a random text... from China. Evidently my phone was actually found at Six Flags, but was sold on some black market to be taken into China. Keep in mind: despite a report being made, no official response was made from Six Flags about the phone's fate. It's partially why I stopped visiting Six Flags altogether after my birthday in June... the Magic and thrill of visiting that Mountain died out, all because one bad customer service experience, and lack of due diligence. I certainly hope the lost/found experience had gotten better since the merger, but in case it hadn't? Let this be a warning, and god help you. read more

It's been like 15 years since I been here. Since we're Prestige pass holders we made the drive down from the bay area for spring break. Parking is a bit of a walk and sometimes they have a shuttle bus but this day they didn't. You can pay extra for closer parking but it's not much shorter of a distance unless you want to pay $70 for front gate parking. There was only one line to pass through security and then to the entrance. PP holders do have a separate line to the left. However lines were moving fairly quick. I must say the park seems a bit spread out. Lots of turns and walkways that we almost missed. They don't have paper park maps anymore and everything is on the Six Flags app. No more cash since COVID either. App had wait times listed but it seemed off majority of the day. We did purchase Fast Lane but X2 is excluded from the pass which makes no sense. X2 always had 90+ minute wait and would constantly be temporary down. Honestly for $129 each person was not worth it. Still 15 to 25 minute wait and you had to use the app to still check in for fast lane for each ride. Complete it and have the QR code scanned then check into the next ride. Don't get me wrong it shaved off maybe 30 to 45 minutes off wait time but this was a week day. Maybe worth it to purchase on a weekend. Wish they would just bring back wristbands. Overall park was ok but it seems run down and old but they are trying to maintain and keep it nice. I do like there are some zip up pouches on the ride itself for you to put your cellphone, sunglasses, or keys in. Just remember to grab it when you exit the ride. Superman has been closed for a couple years and the games are expensive. Employees were very nice and friendly and ride attendants were humorous and made the ride fun. Food and drinks are typical like any other theme park. Meh I may come back but no rush. If you have a season pass remember to scan for extra discount. read more

People need to stop with the 1 star reviews for their lost phone. It is not Magic Mtn's fault that you bring your phone on the ride and don't secure it. Yes when you go upside down, your phone will fall out of your pocket. I bring zippered sweater/shorts for this exact reason!! I'm happy Six Flags has been painting and improving the park. It's sad how mismanagement has let the park get so run down. I'm also happy they are working on the kids area. In order to attract more families, this area was in sore need of improvement. However, I do not agree with the removal of RIDES to put in playgrounds. I didn't get a membership for a playground- that's for free in my neighborhood. I bring the kids to Magic Mountain for the RIDES!! Please add more kid rides, not remove them. read more

I was last at Six Flags with my roller coaster club and had an incredible time! We had extended ride time on Twisted Colossus and Full Throttle. I must say the team members for both rides were phenomenal! This park is always a blast, especially for thrill seekers. If you love high intensity roller coasters, this is the place for you! You can also get in touch with your inner child and enjoy Looney Tunes characters. read more

Six Flags Magic Mountain - Posing with Porky & Daffy. - Amusement Parks Near Me - Valencia, California

Haven't been to Six Flags in maybe 15 years or so. Purchased my tickets online , $65 each. Drove down from my hotel in El Segundo to the park. Parking $40, not bad and compares to most theme parks. Covered parking with solar atop. Shuttle to the entrance but I opted to walk. Park wasn't too crowded and ride wait times were very reasonable. Overall we had a good time. Funnel cake was good. read more

OK, could this place be cleaner? Yes for sure. Could the workers and security enforce the rules better? Yes..... without question Could the rides literally be any more fun? Not a chance.... I have to say, I really hate the Six Flags in Vallejo, it's a pile of ****... This one though, I thoroughly enjoyed. The rides here are just fantastic that's for sure, and there are a surprising amount of dining and drink options all through the park. The food was decent, it is $$$ though. The rides are what really shines here.... Goliath, Tatsu, X2, WOW... I only almost passed out like 5 times that day, no big deal....... We actually had such a good time here, that we will never go to Vallejo again, even though it's close, there is really no comparison between the 2 parks. Let's talk critiques though. For one, it's dirty, very dirty. Six Flags needs to do some serious work in the maintenance and cleaning department. The amount of trash everywhere is a bit ridiculous, even inside gated areas, and the amount of spiderwebs and gum and trash in every queue is a bit much. Also, the workers really couldn't care less about smoking, vaping, line skipping, etc, and that really is a bit ridiculous. The first ride we got on the attendants pulled my daughter off the ride to check her height, she is freshly tall enough to ride which is one of the reasons we went in the first place. She walked up to the board, was clearly over the height limit, and they then went OUT OF THEIR way to get her under the limit before sending us away. "Take a deep breath" "Hold your breath" "look forward" "look this way" until they were able to get her height under.. It was pretty bizarre and they sent us to customer relations to "get her actual height and a wristband." Guess what... she was tall enough.... Got our dumb wristband and went right back into the same queue, with a longer line. If you are going with a child that is just at the height mark, save yourself the hassle and walk straight through the gate to customer relations, and get your kid a wristband. read more

Had a great visit at Six Flags Magic Mountain! The rides are perfect for teens and adults, and the lines weren't too bad during our visit. What really stood out was how friendly and welcoming the employees were--they were helpful, informative, and made the experience even better. We were also pleasantly surprised by how good the food was at the bar/restaurant area. The burger and wings were both delicious! I asked for the wing sauce on the side so I could share with my kid, and the sauce was REALLY good--honestly better than some places we've tried recently back in our hometown. Overall, a really fun day with great rides, great staff, and unexpectedly tasty food. We would definitely come back again! read more

I have been here so many times since 1990 but somehow never wrote a review. Now I'm taking my teenagers to enjoy the rides since I don't anymore ... hahaha the park is very nicely organized, clean and right now they have a spring special Gold annual pass for around $90 I purchased it for us hoping we will come more often in the next 12 months. It includes parking and access to a few other parks. Great deal. The only problem is the food sold here. Very very bad quality and super expensive. I guess they have to somehow make up for the good prices they offer on admission. A bottle of water is $7 ... I got a turkey leg for my son for $18 and gave it right back telling them it not edible. You can't even bite into it it was so dry and horrible. So they replaced it with a cheeseburger which was somewhat edible. From now on we won't be eating here. We will have breakfast then enjoy a couple of hours of fun then go home and eat at home. Or stop by In & Out on our way home. Over the years we have tried different options at the park and everything was bad food. The rides are super fun though. My sons love the Goliath, the X2, the Tatsu, the Full Throttle and a few more. A must every time. I also learned that we can go to knotts berry farm as well with these annual passes since it was bought by six flags recently. How fun. read more

I just got a dining plan and I have been trying the different food places in the park. Unfortunately overall I'll have to give the food a low rating. With the dining plan it's still a great value. For $160 you can get 2 meals at every visit spaced out 4 hours apart. They do have a variety of options to choose from. On slow days the food comes out pretty quickly but it's often cold and not fresh. On busy days it can take 30 minutes to an hour to get food. Look at the photos for reviews of each food item. read more

Decided a last minute trip to Six Flags today. I haven't been for a while. If you're a first timer here and love Disney, don't compare! I don't mean that to downgrade this park because I love it but it's different. We're Gold Plus Annual Passholders and it's a legacy pass that's no longer offered. It allows us to go to any Six Flags, get a drink cup for the year, parking, discounts, etc. I love them for legacying us into this pass for paying during COVID and not cancelling. It shows they valued us unlike Disney who cancelled our passes and created a new program that offered you less for more. Parking is $40 and they don't take any cash - credit/debit only. Important to know when planning the day. Today, the park was not crowded. The longest wait was X2 with 30minutes. It was a perfect day to ride everything and enjoy it without large crowds. They have a dining pass that can be bundled with your ticket which helps with cost. Depending on the one you get, you can get a meal every 90min and drinks are included. They serve alcohol here and will actually give you a special wristband to avoid continuously being carded. The food is not horrible, it's ok and gets the job done while here. They do have a nice alcohol list to choose from. Some of my favorite rides are Goliath, Viper, and Riddler. I will let you know viper is rough on the head so if you're tender on your ears you might want to pass. Goliath has a steep drop but no loops. Riddler, you do stand on. They have character photo opportunities, especially when you first walk in. We caught Daffy & Bugs when we first walked in. If bringing littles you're still ok. They have a Looney Tunes area for littles with mini coasters, a climbing area, and quite a few rides. Definitely check it out. It's a bit of a drive depending where you are but worth it. read more

Came in on 3/21/2026 to start the spring break right! It was great and lines moved quickly. Most rollercoasters were open and that is a plus from other days. One thing to note is that unlimited drink is not unlimited. You only can get refills every 50 mins so be aware and take not. read more

I paid $42 for two slices of just ok pizza and two drinks. Six flags, you REALLY need to do better when it comes to food prices and food options. There really wasnt much variety just resturants with different names but same food options: Pizza, hamburgers, french fries, and chicken strips that are over priced. read more

This was my second time visting this park. I couldn't review my first trip as we were only there a short amount of time when the park closed due to the fires in the area. It took 12 hours to get back to where l lived so I have avoided LA like the plague since that trip (well over 10 maybe even 15 years) Bought the Prestige pass and had to come here to activate the pass before using it at other parks. In addition to purchasing this pass we purchased the all parks drink pass (1 drink every 15 minutes) $36.99 and the all parks upgraded drinks pass $53.99 (includes icees and hot cocoa every 15 minutes). For myself I had purchased the all day dining meal which includes food or a snack every 90 minutes for $44.99. The first time I redeemed it I got the drink bottle, which can be filled every 15 minutes and is good through at least the end of 2025. Was super surprised the food is good? Lines for food can be long and with the dining pass I could not order ahead. Below is what we got: 1. Primo's Pizzeria-got a slice of pepperoni pizza and breadstick. It was for my 9 year old who ate some of it. Husband and I took a nibble he said it tasted like Costco pizza. I thought it was meh as well. (I forgot to take a photo). This had the shortest aka no line when we got there. 2. Chicken coupe-got the chicken tenders and fries. Both were hot, crispy and tasty. This had a few people in front of us. 3. Max'd Out Mac & Screaming spuds-long line, took forever. They would have one person order, get their food to them, then call up the next person. I got the loaded potato tots. They had beer cheese, bacon, green onions on them. They were cold when I got them but I was hungry so I ate part of them. Husband tried and was not a fan either. 4. Food Etc-came here at the end of the night (it was one of the few places still open) and got the nachos. They had what looked like chili on them, beans, jalapeños and pico de gallo on them. They were a lot better tasting than they looked. The rides. We got into the park at about 11:30am after parking and dropping our dogs off at the kennels (will write about that at the end). The line to get in was long but we got to use the "fast" entrance which was not fast. Where we would have been in the line over we would have got in faster. We headed to the left after walking in and that put us near: Viper which kidlet couldn't ride, X2 which had a long line and the new revolution classic. We rode that and grabbed food. After that ended up in the back corner of the park to ride Apocalypse. The ride itself is ok but the wait to get in is long and it super overstimulating. You are essentially in a tin metal tunnel (I had no cell reception at all) it is dark, the only light is the exit sign and the glowing red lights and the "tvs" on. My 9 year old tolerated it well but it was a lot of noise too. I wouldn't go on this ride again unless I had a fast pass. Gold rusher-line was not long but it is a rough ride. My 9 year old loved it though. X2-this was intense. As a person who has rode roller coasters as long as I was tall enough too, it was a lot of sensory things going on that I can't even say if I liked or disliked the ride. I will need to ride it again. My 9 year old found it intense as said they will not ride it again. My husband was too big for this ride. Twisted colossus-rode this in the dark. My 9 year old LOVED it. I enjoyed the ride aspect but as a person who is on the chunky side with a mom pooch this ride was brutal. My husband who is also stocky was too big for this ride. Ninja-it broke down, then reopened and we rode it. It is an older coaster and not super thrilling but was an interesting concept (you ride in a "car" under the rail. Goliath-this was a good ride. Rode it at night and used our 1x flash pass quick queues on this. It was not easy to determine how to use these. We had the staff working the flash pass entrance explain it. She did not seem happy or wanting to help. Magic mover-this gets your from the lower part of the park to the upper level of the park without having to walk uphill. It is very loud and it gets to be standing room only and jerks so brace yourself. Roaring rapids-we got wet. I don't remember how wet we got on this. We shared the ride with others and I feel we all got wet a decent amount. I liked that this version (unlike Knott's) has a place to put your feet up so your shoes don't get soaked. Teen Titans Turbo spin-kidlet and husband rode this. It had no line and there were very few people on it. They enjoyed it. That was all the rides we were able to ride that day. It is partially our own fault as we had no plan we just kept roaming from place to place. If we had been more intentional we might have got to ride more. The day we went was a long day. It was a 3 hour drive there, 3 hour drive back and we were at the park from 11:30-8:45pm. We have the season pass and will be back in the future. read more

Came here since we have Prestige passes from Knott's which includes admission to Six Flags. We arrived before the park opened and our passes include Prestige parking, just like at Knott's. We were able to get into the park with our passes and past the front gate to a holding area since we were there at 9:50 am and. When we got there, they were doing trivia at the rope and just happened to stumble in and play. The host, Darlene was asking the crowd trivia questions and keeping score and my friend won one of the top 2 spots and got our party a front of the line pass to any ride EXCEPT for X2. We chose Tatsuuuuu! It's been years since I've been here so this was really a test for me to see if I could hang and I'm happy to report I could, but just barely. This review is really a reminder to myself to hydrate and start with a Liquid IV right when I get there, plan to eat food and take snacks throughout the day. The food thing is strictly for energy replenishment not because I'm hungry. Also, however tight the restraints are, make them tighter because I need to be taped to the seat and not bobbling around, which was the case for a few rides. Drank Powerade strictly for electrolytes because I normally would not drink this, but it came in clutch at 3 pm when the sun was beating down and I was in line waiting for Full Throttle to creep back into the station after failing to clear the first loop. One ride I would never do again is Riddler's Revenge (read my review on why over there). This visit changed my opinion of the park from 2009. The employees are on it and the branding is consistent and positive throughout the park. It's clean, there's no weird smells, the employees are nice and not weird or full of themselves, there's management walking throughout the park and engaging with guests and it's much more relaxed than Disney or Knott's. The one thing I remember from previous visits were the ride operators of the various rides and their little ride specific announcements or tag lines. Like Viper I remember, "Welcome to the VI-PERR!", Tatsu's call, "TAT-SUUUUUU!," Ninja, "Hi-Ya" x's 3. I also love that everyone from the tram driver to the last ride operators would always end with recommending another ride in the park. It's little things like this that stick out. Also, the trivia at rope drop, with a front of the line pass as a prize, why has Disney not done that all this time? I witnessed one breakdown happen at Full Throttle and the entire team went into action right away and got the ride back up and running with a line full of people and management showed up pretty quickly. Everyone knows what they're doing, they're not standing around talking and ignoring guests, if anything they're way more engaged with guests! As for food, we have the dining plan through Knott's and it worked here and we were able to get meals every 90 minutes as opposed to every 4 hours at Knott's. I read a little bit about what's good here and the Ace BBQ place was mentioned so we tried that spot. It's good for in the park food. I think Knott's Boardwalk BBQ is better, but Ace's tri tip was edible, their vegetarian baked beans were SO GOOD and the roll was a roll. We tried the pizza place by the X2 entrance and that was surprisingly tasty and piping hot. I'd say it was on par with Costco pizza, if not better and the breadstick was good too, better than the one at Prop Shop pizza at Knott's. I'm semi-retiring from this park until I can get into shape, but overall we had a very good time here yesterday, 01/31/26. It's less hassle than Disney or Knott's, the employees were great,it's clean, and less crowded. I'd say the most we waited in line for a ride was between X2 (45 minutes) and Ninja, with a front of the line pass (30 minutes). Way less time than Disneyland and with a greater pay-off. Obviously if you're a thrill seeker this park is a MUST and if you're visiting the California for the first time, be prepared for back to back intense rides, but make sure to take breaks and plan out some of the slower rides in between. Also remember lots of power ade or water and a solid snack to hold you over. read more

Six Flags Magic Mountain - Darlene doing trivia at rope drop! Disney is so behind! - Amusement Parks Near Me - Valencia, California

Review #27 for 2025 3.5 stars It's been a loooooong time since I have been to 6 Flags, at least 10 years. I remember coming here back in high school and even through some years of college. I stopped going to theme parks period years ago until this year, now with a toddler in tow and trying to find ways for him to get his energy out. We've been to 6 Flags Magic Mountain 2x now. Mainly due to having a season pass. Now with the merger of Six Flags, the Cedar Fair parks and Knotts, it's a no brainer and a steal compared to going to Disney. We paid $175 for a prestige season pass and that included going to the parks for the rest of 2025 and the full calendar year of 2026 with no blackout dates and preferred parking! We went to 6 Flags because we bought our passes with this park as our home park to save $70 compared to having Knotts as our home park. We also got an all parks meal plan for $155 and a drinks plus plan for $56. For less than $400, the pass included unlimited no blackout visits with parking, 2 meals during each visit (4 hours in between meals), and drinks (soda, icee, coffee, hot cocoa every 15 min). Oh I also get 1 free fast pass each visit! 6 Flags has mostly big kid/adult rides, but they do have the Bugs Bunny area for kids, which is where we go with our little guy. Even on the weekend when we go, it was never really crowded and wait times were minimal. Our boy loves to eat at the parks and go on the car rides and just people watch. The meal plan works great because we get a meal as soon as we get there, hang out for several hours and get another meal before heading home. They do have event throughout the year. We were not able to make it for the Halloween event, but we have been for the Holidays in the Park. It does look pretty with all the lights, but I do remember more lights back in the day. There are some things the park could do to give it more life... for example a paint job throughout the park to brighten the park back up and patching up the cracks and broken cement around the park. It looks run down with all the faded paint and broken cement. Hence I docked a star. I think it would make a BIG difference to simply fix those things. It definitely does not have the Disney "magic". My toddler might not notice those things, but I do. Regardless, the park is great value for the price and my toddler has fun so that's all that matters. I am not willing to pay "Disney" prices. Would I be back? Yes I would be back. I even plan on coming back to go the Hurricane Harbor as that is also included in our pass! read more

We usually come here at least twice during our visit and we go for the thrills and roller coasters. However, I wish they did have more family rides and water rides since it is more hot. They do have roaring rapids, but that one you get really soaked. I think they are going to get rid of jet stream racers as it is old and showing its age. Lex Luthor was closed down too which was a bummer. However, my time here did go by really quickly even though the intensity was somewhat getting to me. I rode all the roller coasters except for batman, gold rusher, ninja and tatsu and viper as getting older your head can take so much. Here are some facts to know. 1. If the ride is open they run one train on X2 and Apocalypse 2. Most of the roller coasters are usually open, but operations can be slow. I wish they would get rid of the comfort collars on West Coast Racers as it hurts my neck and sholders 3. Wonder Woman they only run 2 trains, but the line does go quickly Holiday in the Park was crowded, but not too extreme. Most of the wait times range between 30 to 60 minutes. We did use some of the skip the line passes. The rides I probably should not go again is Scream as it is shaky and rough and head banging. Food wise, they have the same ole and ole, but we enjoy the pizza place. The Asian place is now in the food court. I like the Mexican food and Dole whip is awesome and must get. The chicken sandwich is alright too. All of the Looney Tunes characters come out on the main street and not the Looney Tunes area. One thing I enjoy doing is 30 minutes before closing time I head to Wonder Woman and ride my heart out as the line is really short and the people that work there are really nice and let you reride again and sometimes let you sit on the seat. I tend to get 4 rides on it. read more

Went to six flags as part of key club's fall rally south event. The park was pretty clean and operating most rides which was super nice. Wait times definitely got long in the afternoon, and it didn't help that they would only run 2 cars on a time per ride. And no single rider options to fill seats made it very inefficient. However, their rides are unique and fun. Disappointing food of the day was the chili cheese fried that looked sad and didn't taste fresh. The tacos were surprisingly good, with lots of meat, just were on the spicy end - one with us but maybe not for everyone. The six flags staff was pretty friendly overall, and I am glad to have met Bugs Bunny! read more

Six flags has the best rollercoasters hands down in California! A huge variety of thrills! My daughter is short and younger so this park even worked for her as well. She often misses out and at six flags she was able to go to the toon town with rides just for her to match her age and height. It has something for everyone in your family. Admission price is affordable and annual passes are a great value. It is a large park and a lot of up and down hill walking so you will get your steps in. read more

We have not been to Magic Mountain since the 80s. The rides are wild, crazy, fast and thrilling. We went on an off day and the day was full of rides with very little wait time. We had to visit Guest Relations for an issue. We talked to Oscar and the service was below standards. There was no listening skills of the issue. We finally gave us and luckily another staff member was able to assist. read more

Went for the first time this weekend with my kids, where we spent most of our time in Bug Bunny World at the kiddie rides. Kids had a blast, and it was not crowded at all. Got the MVP pass, which allows you to visit 40+ parks across California for a cheap price, and it includes Knott's. Bugs Bunny World also has an indoor playground that my kids enjoyed, filled with balls they can play with. Unfortunately that's as good as this review gets. We tried to enjoy this experience as much as possible, but the staff here are some of the worst to exist on this planet. Now I know why I never brought my kids here; the staff here do not know how to make anybody experience great. First asking a staff member where to park, only for them to reply with, "Well, the signs are there; just read the signs." Okay, thanks, bro. Had an attitude for no reason. Next encounter with a staff member at the plaza ice cream shop at the entrance. I went in to buy a souvenir cup and was helped by a nice lady who did answer all my questions. I asked if the green souvenir cup was good for the rest of the year and those kinds of questions. But when I asked when they are getting the 2026 souvenir cups, another worker lady butts in and responds with a sarcastic and condescending voice, "Uhhh, next year!!!" And proceeds to laugh. Didn't need that crazy-ass response, but I shut her up quick when I told her there was no need for that and I simply asked because other parks like Knott's usually get them a few months before, and she walked away with attitude. I actually captured that girl in one of my pics I will post up. Another incident is at the shop in Bugs Bunny World with a dude next to the "That's all folks" sign who gave me attitude because I dropped a tiny bit of my drink before refilling the souvenir cup. Claiming now I gave more work to someone who's going to clean that up. I told him, "Why would anyone come and clean up liquid that's going to dissolve into the pavement because of the heat?" He argued more basically, calling me an asshole for giving him more work or to someone else. This was all on Sunday, Sep 7th, 2025, around 5 pm-ish. These were a few of my rude encounters; this is not even mentioning those who did not want to refill my cup or the restaurants that closed their shop like 2 hrs before they were scheduled to close. The customer service is horrible, almost like dealing with high school kids; they basically don't give a F. I swear the mouse would have had these staff members in the unemployment line on the quick if they acted this way. It makes someone experience and can also really ruin it. Six Flags really needs to get it together and work on their staff's attitudes because this is beyond unacceptable. I hope since the merger they make some real changes. This isn't it. read more

Had not been back for almost 2 decades, and this Sunday was AWESOME! Staff was friendly, parking was organized, the crowd was happy, the Christmas lights were AMAZING ! So happy I got the annual pass for 2026. There was a special staff meeting that was helpful, cheerful and sweet. Here name is Vi (V), viper ride attendant. Look forward in going back. It was a good hike/walk and the thrill was the BEST! Be there soon! Happy 2026 read more

I would definitely say that coming here to six flags during peak hours and days is a big no no for anyone that doesn't like to be in big lines in the heat. I've came here during non peak days and of course such a thrill being able to ride most rides with only waiting in line for about 20-30 min max. When you are an adult it's different of course because we think of the how big is the line, do I really want to wait in the line, or hmm should I go pee now or hold it stuff teens just don't care. During a hot summer day even an expensive $16 drink is much needed at the Bar area. The season pass is worth it honestly. read more

I have not gone to Six Flags Magic Mountain since my early 20s. I'm in my 40s now. I just wanted to see if I could handle roller coasters being old. I was always curious to compare myself to my elders when they were about this age. I rode X2, Viper, and Tatsu. X2 is still this best roller coaster in California. It felt like I was being ragdolls by the Hulk. I almost lost my eyeglasses mid-loop on Viper. And Tatsu sucked the wind out of me. No nausea and no pain this instance. One of the craziest things about Magic Mountain compared to the 2000s, the younger generation don't like up for X2 as much as the non-looping rollers coasters. I saw more people on family friendly rides than extreme rides. It was the complete opposite back then. So funny. read more

Six Flags Magic Mountain - Bugs Bunny throwing up gang signs. - Amusement Parks Near Me - Valencia, California

This time I came alone on a Saturday (June 21), and it is obviously definitely more crowded. But, some rides are only a 10-15 minute wait, while others are more like 2 hours. The parking shuttle bus is extremely convenient! Although, I wouldn't have minded walking. It is warm today, so I'd suggest bringing a fanny pack with essentials like sunscreen, tissues, hand sanitizer, etc. Crazanity was less crazy this time, and I actually fully loved the experience this time, unlike last time when I was in fear of my life and wanted to get off at the top. The line for X2 was listed as 150 minutes or so, but it was one of the rides that was closed or under maintenance last time, I think. And the line felt like it was moving and took a lot less time than anticipated. Justice League and Scream are temporarily being fixed today. The employees are friendly, helpful, and it generally feels like they enjoy their jobs here. read more

Six Flags Magic Mountain is one of the best amusement parks in California. The park impresses with a large number of roller coasters and a wide variety of attractions for different ages. There are extreme rides for adrenaline lovers as well as calmer areas for families with children. The park is large and well organized. The rides are conveniently located, and there are places to rest and take a break between rides. Many of the roller coasters are truly world-class and provide very strong -- for coaster enthusiasts this is definitely a place worth visiting. The only noticeable downside is the very high prices at the cafes inside the park. For example, a hot dog and a drink can cost around $20, which feels quite expensive for such a simple snack. Overall, it's a great place for an active day out with friends or family. If you enjoy roller coasters and exciting experiences, Six Flags Magic Mountain is definitely worth visiting. read more

Often understaffed in food sections. Bathrooms feel unclean. The app and ticketing don't seem to work together well. The rides are nice and the price is right (you can get a season for less than a day of Disney). However, busy days, some wait times can be insane. read more

I came for horror nights and it was a good time. Lines was only 20-30 mins for mazes which is so great! Honestly the food lines are longer. The High octane wings line was about 45 min wait but it was well worth it. They bring the heat! They had a great show as well right in front at the stage so it made time go fast. Gotta love it here. Parking attendants are also seamless with telling you where to go and getting traffic in and out. read more

I've been a season pass holder for many years. Sunday was my first time visiting the park for Fright Frst in about 4 years. Sadly, it appears that the park traffic is the lowest I've ever seen. There were virtually no lines for the rides or haunted houses. The longest wait was about 20 minutes for a ride. I believe to offset the low ticket sales the prices of food went up. While you pay more money you get seemingly 50% less product. For example, a Dole Float was approximately $19 but it was extremely smaller than it used to be. See photos. Not to mention, the cheese quesadilla was the only big enough to feed a small child and that was about $17. Turkey Leg- We punched 2 Turkey legs. Something was very off from the start. We didn't smell anything cooking on the grill as we were use to smelling. Anyway we ordered to Turkey legs and they were dry, and hard as a rock. However, we tried to eat as much as we could until we noticed that we were eating raw Turkey. Yes, the Turkey on some parts of the legs was not raw. The Turkey Leg Skin was like Pleather, Meat in places was raw, pink and like rubber; turkey was also grayish, hard and dry. After discovering the Turkey was uncooked in places we threw it away. Anyway, I notified one of the workers and he to me to go to Guest Relations. About 30 minutes after the Turkey settled in our stomachs we all felt sickly as if we were poisoned. Couldn't get on another Rollercoaster. As we were leaving the park, stopped by Guest Relations to report the incident. They took down my name and email address and that was it. Long story short..... Stay Away from the Turkey legs and make sure they do the Dole Float properly. Get the Strawberry Funnel Cake read more

Came in for fright fest this weekend and it was okay. Ride line and maze lines were crazy busy, it might be worth getting priority. Waits for rides were all at least 30 minutes for baby rides and about an hour for all bigger rides We decided to try the drinks, which were surprisingly really good, but pretty pricey Again we saw a rat run through the bushes read more

I have an immense amount of nostalgia for Magic Mountain, having gone here often as a kid - then bringing my kids here throughout their childhoods. I had been an annual pass holder for well over a decade and finally let my pass go bc everyone is just too busy to make a pass worthwhile (we had a crazy good deal on an amazing pass grandfathered in). We came here during the last day of Fright Fest 2025 for a last hurrah and had a wonderful time! Not having been here for over 2 years, so much has changed - all for the better. It used to be quite ghetto (rowdy teenagers, trash all over the place, literal crime rings running inside the park stealing people's purses when they are left on the side of rides - of which we were a victim too) - all that is gone! Tight security, no one is allowed to bring in a bag bigger than 12", chaperone requirement for kids, park is clean and well organized. Fright fest was SO much fun with great cast of people with great makeup having a good ol time jump scaring everyone! Food is still absolutely ridiculous ($16 for fries???) and having to pay for lockers or leave your purse out in the open for someone to potentially steal, sucks - but I guess the company is trying to make up some of the money from the lower ticket prices. I know the park is struggling so I hope everyone will continue to come and support it so it doesn't turn into a condo development :( Definitely look forward to coming back when we have the time! read more

Lots of thrilling roller coasters and a water park to choose from. It is hotter in Valencia and definitely bring a cap, water and a fan and use sunscreen. Lines for certain reuses tend to be longer and food is definitely on the pricier side. read more

Wow! It had been over 15, maybe 20 years since I'd been to MM! A LOT has changed! I remember when Colossus was the biggest coaster there and visible from the freeway. Now the newer coaster tower Colossus! They've minimized the wooden frame, integrated metal and renamed it, Twisted Colossus! My adult kids LOVE scary coasters. They said Twisted Colossus was the most fun of all the Coasters at MM! That is even after we rode Tatsu. I didn't get on Twisted Colossus because Tatsu was way too much for me--but definitely a must ride. X2 was closed as well as a few others which was disappointing. We visited on a Wednesday during spring break (April 2nd). If you are tired of the Disney crowds, MM is the place. The most we waited in line was 30 mins for Tatsu and just a bit less for Riddlers Revenge. There's also a large area for kids with rides too. But be sure to check the website to be sure this kid's area is open. If it is, and you have a mix of younger kids and older kids (adults) MM has a lot for everyone. There is a special rate through April--$45! If you pay $24 more ($69), you can purchase the admission/meal combo. This lets you receive an entree and side every 90 minutes! Drinks are not included. This is a great deal since most meals are $20. You definitely get your moneys worth. But, things like turkey legs and bacon/avocado burger is not included. Just stick to basic meal items and you're fine. There's LOTS of walking and a couple steep hills so wear comfy shoes. They have ADA entrances just visit customer service for a pass to skip the line. If you plan on getting on water rides, they have a walk-in drier for a cost. You can fit several people inside to dry from head to toe. It's kinda cool. Park closing hours are currently 6:00 pm. Get there early. By 6:00, you'll be ready to go home! It's an exiting and exhausting day. Most adult rides require a 54" height min. I think summer is a bit more crowded. You can even buy a pass that includes admission their water park! It's a great deal and STILL less than Disney. Depending on where you live, it can be a drive. You just need to plan a good time/day to avoid as much traffic as possible. I'm in Baldwin Park about 50 miles from MM. It took us an hour to get there leaving on a Wednesday at 10:00 am. MM IS one of California's hidden gems for thrill seekers and still affordable to take the family. read more

We booked tickets in advance and had a great time! I believe parking was $30 and we stayed at a hotel nearby so would've been cheaper to just Uber from the hotel and be dropped off. They have covered parking and there is a little shuttle that'll drive you right to the front if you're parked in the back of the lot. We went midweek and it was busy but not packed. There is plenty of screens that show the wait time for each of the rides as well. I don't think any of the rides had more than a 15 minute wait. Our kids had a great time on all of the crazy coasters. There's plenty of spots to grab drinks and food and the all day drink and food passes are great deals! read more

Very cool Holiday atmosphere. I enjoyed walking around. Definitely worth getting the annual food pass and drink cup. I like visiting especially if I want to get exercise and steps in. I tried the Johnny Rockets burger. Juicy but I felt lacking flavor. read more

Visited Six Flags Magic Mountain on a Monday around 10:30 AM made the entrance into the park saved a bunch of time. Most rides had waits between 1-15 minutes. Six Flags MM is great for the thrill and fun of it. X2 stood as the top favorite of all the rides. However, I saw a recurring issue with technical difficulties. Several rides throughout the day were closed, and I even got stuck on Goliath mid ride for 10 minutes. Most of the water rides were shut down. Dining experience was better than expected, but thanks to my all-day dining experience ($45) that allowed me to get a meal every 90 minutes. Every meal ran for ~$20, the pass was a good deal if you plan on reaching twice or split with friends. Many of the dining options were closed and my favorite item was the chicken tendies. Worth to note that the turkey leg and funnel cakes aren't covered by the dining pass. read more
