It’s been a little over three years since it was first announced that two behemoths of the amusement park industry, Six Flags and Cedar Fair, were becoming a single entity. Based on the number of locations, the merger created the biggest company in the industry by far – but it was clear from the very start that the new combined Six Flags might not remain quite so big forever.
Back in November, we saw Six Flags America in Maryland officially see its last guests. When the park closed for the season, it closed forever. The expectation is that when Six Flags Great America's current lease expires, the California park will also close. However, some new information indicates several other spots may not stay as Six Flags parks for long, though they may not be closing.
