About

Six Flags Fiesta Texas

Six Flags Fiesta Texas is an amusement park in San Antonio, Texas, United States. It opened on March 14, 1992, in the La Cantera master-planned development and district as the first business in that development. Spanning 200 acres (81 ha), the park was originally built to become a destination musical show park with its focus on the musical culture of the state of Texas. The park was purchased by Time Warner (currently known as Warner Bros. Discovery) in 1995, and branded as a Six Flags park for the 1996 season.
