[2025 Agawam Attraction] Travel Guide for Six Flags New England (Updated Jun)

Located just a 1-hour and 40-minute drive from downtown Boston, Six Flags New England offers an exhilarating experience that might even surpass Universal Studios. Tickets vary daily, and buying online can save you money with discounts, though there's a $10 service fee regardless of the number of tickets purchased. It's more economical to go in a group. You can also upgrade to a season pass for just $10 on the day of your visit. Interestingly, some workplace discount websites offer tickets $10 cheaper without any service fees. Parking at Six Flags costs $43 for "speedy parking," with no free options and no online discounts. However, there's a nearby restaurant offering parking for $15, just a 5-minute walk from the park, which is highly recommended. For food and drinks, the $19.99 unlimited refill drink option is a lifesaver, as there are few water stations. We didn't purchase the meal package, which is a personal choice. Here's a rundown of the roller coasters based on heart rate and thrill factor: - **Superman**: Heart rate peaked at 136. Thrill level: 🌟🌟🌟🌟. Recommendation: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟. It's the tallest, longest, and fastest coaster, offering intense weightlessness, comparable to Universal's Jurassic ride. - **Riddler Revenge**: Heart rate peaked at 143. Thrill level: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟. Recommendation: 🌟🌟🌟🌟. Features continuous rolls and a strong centrifugal force, though it may cause slight dizziness. - **Gotham City Gauntlet Escape from Arkham Asylum**: Thrill level: 🌟🌟. Recommendation: 🌟🌟🌟. A nostalgic wild mouse ride with sharp turns, perfect for a break from intense coasters. - **Catwoman**: Thrill level: 🌟. Recommendation: 🌟. A wooden train ride for kids, not much to say. - **Batman**: Heart rate at 126. Thrill level: 🌟🌟🌟. Recommendation: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟. A slower coaster with mild weightlessness and centrifugal force, offering a relaxed experience. - **Flashback**: Thrill level: 🌟🌟🌟. Recommendation: 🌟🌟🌟. The only coaster that goes forwards and backwards, short and not very fast, but the backward pull can be thrilling. #RollerCoasters #SixFlagsAmusementPark #SixFlagsNewEngland #Boston #BostonLife #WaterPark

the Superman Roller coaster was awesome. We are definitely going back before the end off summer. Getting there is easy Connecticut has a lot of highways. Hotels are fairly reasonable and cheap. Six Flags is one of the best parks around. they have a lot of awesome roller coasters. also we went on July 3rd and the fireworks show was the greatest show I’ve seen since I was a kid. the whole family had such much fun. can’t wait to go back again

One of the must-visit attractions around Boston is definitely Six Flags! Especially during Halloween, there will be many unique experiences. Six Flags is a large chain of amusement parks in the United States, and the membership is super cost-effective. The shortest one-year total cost is less than $100, with unlimited free entry to any Six Flags amusement park in the United States, as well as various benefits such as free parking and free admission for friends. If you buy tickets directly, this one in New England costs $52 per ticket and $25 for parking. That means if one person gets a membership and uses the opportunity to bring a friend for free, it's already more cost-effective than buying tickets directly! (Two people going together: ❌Buying tickets directly = 52*2 people + $25 parking fee = $129. ✅One person handles one year membership = $7.5/month * 12 + $8.99 first month processing fee = $98.99. ⏰Opening hours: Please refer to the schedule on the official website. 📍Address: Route 159, 1623 Main St, Agawam, MA 01001 (about 1.5 hours drive from Boston) ❗️Tested project stimulation ❗️ 💚Goliath (green roller coaster): ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We played the first roller coaster as soon as we came in, haha! Six Flags didn't disappoint me from the beginning. As soon as we sat down, it climbed backwards and then gave us an experience like a free fall machine. There was also my favorite upside-down loop. After playing, I was so excited! Caution for the faint-hearted ⚠️. ❤️Flashback (Red Roller Coaster): ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This ride is also amazing! The excitement level is second only to Goliath~ 🖤New England SkyScreamer (Giant Swing): ⭐️ The tallest swing ride in the world is actually a giant sightseeing swing, haha, which allows you to enjoy the panoramic view of the entire amusement park at a height of over 120m and a speed of 56km/s. If you are not afraid of heights, this is not a very exciting ride for you, but the wind is super strong at high altitude, so don't ride it on windy days. Also, don't think that the speed of this ride is not very fast and you don't need to flip around to wear a hat! 🧢❌ 🧡Pandemonium (Orange and Green Roller Coaster): ⭐️⭐️⭐️ This is a small car where four people sit face to face and it's quite fun to spin around~ However, because only four people can sit in one car, the queue is very long. 🤍Thunderbolt (pure white wooden roller coaster): ⭐️⭐️⭐️ I thought this 78-year-old roller coaster grandpa, built in 1941, would be as slow as a kiddie coaster, but it turned out to be more thrilling than I imagined. Although it's not as thrilling as Superman and Goliath, it's enough to keep me from getting bored 😂 It's perfect for those who don't have the courage to try the most thrilling roller coasters but still want to try something more exciting. 💙 Superman (Red and Blue Roller Coaster): ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This is definitely the most worthwhile ride to go to at Six Flags‼️ It's thrilling and exciting enough, not to mention that there are surprisingly few people and the ride time is long. Unlike some roller coasters where you wait in line for an hour and only experience half a minute, if it weren't for my boyfriend nearing the brink of collapse, I could play this ride five times haha! There's even a section where water mist sprays! Highly recommended! 🤣 💔 Cyborg Hyper Drive: (Sorry, can't provide) It's a one-star rating) This is a super long queue next to Superman... It misled us into thinking it was fun. The result was just going around in circles, boring to the point of explosion. I waited in line for an hour thinking it was like Superman, but my mentality instantly changed. Collapsed in between ☹️ The excitement may not even be as good as a spinning wooden ride. Horse... 💛 The Riddler Revenge (yellow and green roller coaster): ⭐️⭐️⭐️ This was the last ride we played that day. After playing with Baymax, he refused to play with me anymore, saying that he had reached his limit and would vomit if he played again 😂 For timid people, this is quite exciting, and for someone like me who seeks excitement, it's still fun~ What impressed me most about this ride was that the seat was securely fixed and comfortable, and it didn't get my head stuck haha (I don't know if anyone else like me gets their ears swollen every time they ride a roller coaster and the seat is fixed 🤦🏻‍♀️).
