Six Flags St. Louis
Six Flags St. Louis, originally known as Six Flags Over Mid-America, is an amusement park in Eureka, Missouri, a suburb of St. Louis. Owned and operated by Six Flags, it has eight themed areas with attractions, dining, and live entertainment, many themed with characters from Looney Tunes and other Warner Bros. films and TV shows, DC Comics, and, formerly, Scooby-Doo.
The park was conceived in the 1960s by Six Flags founder Angus G. Wynne as the last of the company's original three parks. It was the first one designed by the Six Flags company; the designer of the first two, architect Randall Duell, was busy designing AstroWorld at the time. The park opened on June 5, 1971.
The park has undergone many changes, including the 1990s replacement or renaming of all six of the park's original areas and the addition of two new ones.
The park, which operates from April to November, hosts various celebrations and events. Some of the most popular are Fright Fest, which runs during the Halloween season (usually late September to late October/early November) and features many Halloween decorations and haunted houses. Star Spangled Nights takes place July 4 and features fireworks displays. The park no longer operates Holiday in the Park, which ran from November to early January and featured Christmas decorations and music, New Year's fireworks, and more.
Six Flags is divided into six sections which reflect the architecture and atmosphere of different eras in Midwestern history. The flags of France, Spain, England, the Union, Illinois, and Missouri have had influence over the territory since 1764. The buildings, shows, and rides are themed to help you relive the bright and colorful past at Six Flags.
Plans for a Six Flags park in the St. Louis area—dubbed Six Flags Over Mid-America—were announced on July 16, 1969. The park opened on June 5, 1971, the third and last of the three "true" Six Flags parks as envisioned by Angus G. Wynne. The park was divided into six themed sections: the namesake "Six Flags" over Mid-America:
On June 5, 1999, the 12-acre Six Flags Hurricane Harbor water park opened, adjacent to the main park. At a cost of $17 million, it was the largest single investment in Six Flags St. Louis' history.
In 2014, Six Flags sold 180 acres of unused land to the east of the park to developer McBride & Sons, effectively reducing the total property area of the park from 503 acres to 323 acres. According to the Six Flags 2015 Annual Report, the park now owns 323 acres of land (with 283 acres of land used for the park, plus an additional 40 acres of undeveloped land).
