Statement from Acting Prince George’s County Executive Tara Jackson on the Announced Closure of Six Flags America

"We are saddened by the announcement that Six Flags America and Hurricane Harbor will permanently close after the 2025 season. For decades, Six Flags has been more than just a theme park—it has been a cherished part of our county’s identity, a source of joy for families, and a hub of economic activity. 

The park has employed approximately 70 full-time associates and has provided other valuable job opportunities, supporting our local economy.  

We are committed to working closely with Six Flags and other stakeholders to guide a thoughtful and inclusive redevelopment process that supports jobs, growth and long-term community benefit."
