The 55-Year-Old Theme Park Sold Off by Six Flags Officially Reveals New Name — an Homage to Its Past
A former Six Flags property is officially cutting its ties with the amusement park giant.
On Thursday, Aug. 27, Six Flags St. Louis officially adopted a new name: Mid America Adventure. It marks the first time the amusement park — the largest in St. Louis — has operated without “Six Flags” in its name.
According to Enchanted Parks, the company now operating the park, the new name honors the park’s 55-year “history in the heart of the Midwest while celebrating its diverse collection of rides and attractions.”
Alongside the name change, the park unveiled an updated logo and brand identity featuring St. Louis’ Gateway Arch towering high above a roller coaster and wave of water, a nod to the property’s Hurricane Harbor Water Park.
