Six Flags Great Adventure reopened for members and season pass holders on Friday with the park opening to the public on July 4. Safety measures due to coronavirus have been put into place.

In accordance with Governor Phil Murphy’s opening guidelines for amusement parks, Six Flags Great Adventure will operate with reduced attendance levels..

The park will gradually increase attendance levels throughout the month.

The park is implementing extensive new safety measures and hygiene protocols, including several new advanced technology systems to protect guests and employees. These procedures will be adjusted on an as-needed basis to ensure compliance with state recommendations.

A preview date for Six Flags Hurricane Harbor is forthcoming.
The parks will employ an online reservation system to manage attendance, schedule guests for entry by day, and to stagger arrival times to minimize proximity exposure.

Other new technologies include:
–State-of-the-art thermal imaging for temperature checks
–Advanced security screening technology for touchless bag checks
–Mobile food ordering.

The parks’ reopening plan, which the company developed in consultation with epidemiologists, meets or exceeds federal, state, and local guidelines for sanitization, hygiene, and social distancing protocols.
