After more than 50 years of entertaining generations of visitors, California’s Great America will permanently close its doors in 2027, park operator Six Flags announced Friday.
The decision stems from Six Flags’ choice not to renew its land lease agreement for the property, which is set to expire in June 2028.
“After careful reflection, we have made the difficult decision that 2027 will be the park’s final season,” the company said in a statement.
