Six Flags Fiesta Texas Decade in Review | Grand Opening and the 1990s

Six Flags Fiesta Texas officially opened its doors on March 14, 1992 with a small collection of record-breaking attractions, such as The Rattler, and a plethora of world-class live entertainment. Though the 1990s, Fiesta Texas evolved with massive ride and water park expansions, the addition of several marquee roller coasters and even a new themed area. Join us for a trip through the 1990s as we explore the park's opening seasons, along with its acquisition and transformation into a flagship Six Flags park.

I was there opening day. it was awesome! was on the first Rattler train 2nd row from back. what a ride and the smell of the fresh wood was incredible.

I’ve only been to 3 Six Flags parks, SFOT, Astroworld (RIP), and Fiesta Texas. It’s now been a few years since I’ve visited one, but I do remember noticing how much nicer the theming, cleanliness, and attitudes of the employees were at Fiesta Texas as compared to the other two. Plus, since the water park is inside the main park, it’s nice to be in the water while it’s hot, and then do the main park in the evening. All that, and the fireworks/laser show at the end of the nights at FT literally rivaled what you’d see at a Disney park.

Opening day, the place was so Magical at 13.

Looked great back in its early years. Now it looks like little to no effort is put into keeping the attractions and live shows going or running as they know people will still keep coming with no other competition.

The final SFOT episode is in the works. Hopefully will be completed sooner rather than later.
