News Project 2027 (?): "Record-Breaking Water Attraction"
- Thread starter Zachary
- Start date
"Water attraction" is delightfully ambiguous.
Interesting place to put this attraction where it’s likely to have it’s shortest operating season.
This feels like a water park addition to me. Would explain the difference in phrasing between this one and the Caro announcement.
I actually really liked my time in there.
My girlfriend did the Canadas Wonderland water park and absolutely hated it. It could use some love.
It sounds like this project is delayed or cancelled.
Six Flags 2026 capex is being reduced to $400 million. On the earning call, Zimmerman hinted at this project being delayed or cancelled because they don't think they have gotten the full benefit from the 2025 capex yet. Canada's Wonderland attendance is way up since AlpenFury opened and the coaster is a massive success.

The earnings call attributed approximately 100,000 new CW season pass sales directly to AlpenFury. If you build it, they will come!
It was heavily implied that they expect additional momentum from it to carry into 2026, so a delay at the very least seems likely for this project. Also worth mentioning that the presenters sounded like they were under a lot of pressure to find ways to meet their cost cutting goals in the second half of the year.

Probably delayed. It was rumored that the 2024 addition of Moosehorn Falls had some additional groundwork/infrastructure built for a slide next door that would come later. So it's likely just pushed back for now.
2027 passes are on sale with no new attraction announcements made.

Most of the announcements (except the slide tower at Knotts Soak City) seem like they are starting construction or have already started, like Bakunawa.
A Season Pass announcement without a new attraction attached doesn't rule out a 2027 addition for me, and sometimes things are saved for post-Halloween, IAAPA, Christmas, or later annoucements.
