Have you heard the news? Six Flags Over Georgia Holiday in the Park is making a return!
That is the best news, since Holiday in the Park is my favorite time of year to go to Six Flags with Six Flags Fright Fest being a close 2nd, since I'm not big on rides (I'll leave that to the kids).
Below are more details.
The most wonderful time of the year will make a triumphant return as Six Flags Over Georgia announces the return of a reimagined Holiday in the Park.
Launching in fall 2026, this beloved seasonal tradition has been completely redesigned from the ground up—ushering in a dazzling new era of immersive holiday magic filled with entertainment, thrill rides, lights and unforgettable moments for the whole family.
From the sparkle of twinkling gateways to the glow of cozy winter villages, Holiday in the Park transforms the park into a living holiday storybook.
Guests can expect fully immersive themed lands layered with elaborate décor and thoughtfully infused with Georgia flair. With more live entertainment than ever before—including nightly tree lighting spectaculars, carolers, parade floats, indoor mainstage shows—the season will come alive from day into night in breathtaking fashion.
"I may have just joined the Six Flags Over Georgia team, but together we're moving fast to enhance the 2026 season beyond our guests' expectations," said Richard Pretlow, park president. "They spoke, and we listened. Holiday in the Park has been a treasured tradition here, and we're excited to bring it back—reimagined, redesigned, and ready to sparkle with the magic that only Georgia can bring."
A Complete Creative Transformation
The return of Holiday in the Park marks a multi‑year investment, beginning in 2026 with three brand‑new, fully immersive themed lands to explore in the park. In the years that follow, additional lands will debut—expanding the event's footprint and storytelling and continuing to elevate the guest experience season after season.
The creative vision is led by Logan Wince, an accomplished creative director whose immersive approach blends theatrical design, storytelling and large‑scale park transformations.
"This event is about wrapping our guests in warmth, wonder and joy the moment they step through the gates," said Kelly Daugherty, entertainment director for Six Flags.
"Every detail—from the lighting and décor to the music, characters, and shows—has been carefully designed to feel emotionally rich, playful, and celebratory. We wanted each land to feel like you've stepped inside a holiday dream, where traditions feel familiar, but the experience is fresh, awe-inspiring, and full of heart."
In addition to expansive themed environments, guests can enjoy interactive holiday experiences including photos with Santa Claus, a family‑friendly indoor walk‑through attraction, cookie decorating, gingerbread house building, festive photo opportunities and seasonal tasting menus curated by each park's executive chef.
Adding to the magic, many thrill rides and kids' areas will remain open, allowing guests to soar and spin by day—and experience the beauty of holiday lights on nighttime rides.
Operating dates, hours, show lineup and ride details will be announced at a later time, with schedules designed to maximize daytime warmth, evening sparkle and holiday togetherness.
"In 2026, festive traditions shine again. New memories are made. And the magic glows brighter than ever when Holiday in the Park returns—reimagined, redesigned and ready to wow," Daugherty added.
