Mid-August means less than one month from the start of Fright Fest at Six Flags Fiesta Texas! Haunted houses, scare zones and spooky decor have begun popping up at the park in preparation for the 30th anniversary of their Halloween festivities. Join us for a look at the progress of Fright Fest, Tricks and Treats and Oktoberfest, plus confirmed attractions coming to this year's event.

Six Flags Fiesta Texas invited us out on National Roller Coaster Day for a behind-the-scenes look at how their roller coasters and attractions are prepared each morning for guests. Maintenance begins their day before the sun rises, inspecting roller coaster trains, the track, sensors, brakes and several other items for each attraction in the park. Afterwards, the operations team takes over with their own safety checks, ensuring each component of the park's rides functions safely and properly.

Six Flags Fiesta Texas today announced its biggest and most immersive Halloween season ever as Fright Fest returns on select dates Sept. 11 through Nov. 1 with more scares, more atmosphere and more ways to experience Halloween than ever before. As part of Six Flags Entertainment's largest Halloween celebration in company history, Six Flags Fiesta Texas will unleash an unmatched lineup headlined by an all-new The Conjuring Universe maze, a reimagined nightmare based on the iconic horror franchise, alongside the return of SAW®: Legacy of Terror.

Summer is quickly coming to a close at Six Flags Fiesta Texas. Since our last visit, Kid Flash Cosmic Coaster has been fully removed and the all-new La Cocina de Cobre Tex-Mex restaurant has opened. Refurbishment projects have left several coasters operating only one train, along with the continued long-term closures of select flat rides. We also check out Werewolf Gorge construction progress, which is a family coaster coming in 2027 and experience the FiestaLuz drone show.

Six Flags Fiesta Texas continues its culinary transformation with the opening of La Cocina de Cobre on Saturday, June 20. The new restaurant replaces Bubba’s Burgers and represents one of the most significant food and beverage investments in the park’s history. The addition builds on the park’s expanded culinary vision following the introduction of an executive chef last year, as well as the multimillion-dollar transformation of Sangerfest Halle, the largest dining investment in park history.
