As Six Flags’ Maryland location closes shop, longtime visitors say goodbye

Six Flags America Closes Its Doors

Six Flags, the parent company of the amusement park, announced its closure in May. The Maryland location, which was part of over 40 amusement parks across North America, has finally closed its doors.

For some, like Washington, D.C. resident Lise Bruneau, Six Flags America holds a special place in their hearts. It's where she started taking her family 16 years ago, and where her son learned to swim.

“We will feel its loss,” she said of the park. “I feel it already.”

The park, along with its water park Hurricane Harbor in Bowie, closed permanently on Sunday, drawing a crowd of all ages for a final day of reminiscing.
