Six Flags is introducing memberships for the first time in its parks’ history, and beginning June 8 guests may designate Dorney Park & Wildwater Kingdom as their home park under the new program.
The memberships deliver 12 months of access from the date of purchase and include entry to three East-region parks — Six Flags Great Adventure, Wild Safari and Hurricane Harbor New Jersey — plus access to seasonal offerings such as summer entertainment, Halloween celebrations and select holiday experiences across the Six Flags portfolio.
Company executives described the rollout as a move away from a traditional season-pass model toward yearlong, continuously available access. Chris Meyering said the expansion of the Membership program makes it easier than ever for guests to enjoy Six Flags on their own terms, adding that memberships offer flexibility, everyday value and perks across more parks to make every visit more rewarding.
For regular visitors to Dorney Park — one of the Lehigh Valley’s largest tourism draws — the change means a single purchase can now tie them to a local home park while opening doors to other regional destinations for a full year. The membership continues seamlessly as long as it remains active, so access does not lapse midterm provided payments or account status remain in good order.
That continuity is part of the program’s selling point. At the same time, the requirement that membership remain active to preserve access is a built-in limitation: the company frames memberships as more flexible than traditional season passes, but the flexibility depends on a guest maintaining an active subscription rather than a one-time seasonal ticket.
Kim Solis framed the launch in local terms, saying Dorney Park has long been a place where families create traditions together and that membership introduces a new way for guests to enjoy those traditions while taking advantage of the incredible destinations available throughout the region, including Six Flags Great Adventure, Wild Safari and Hurricane Harbor New Jersey.
Practically, the critical date for guests is June 8, when purchases take effect and members can begin using Dorney Park as their home park under the new structure. The company says memberships will include benefits tied to events throughout the year and will continue month to month as long as the membership is active.
One immediate gap remains: public materials announcing the program do not include pricing. Prospective members can expect to sign up and start using the membership on June 8, but how much it will cost and how payment options will compare with former season-pass rates have not been disclosed. That unanswered detail will determine whether the new model truly replaces the season pass for regular visitors—or simply repackages it with recurring obligations.
