Not to be confused with Six Flags Over Texas.

Six Flags Fiesta Texas, also known as Fiesta Texas, is a Six Flags theme park located in San Antonio, Texas. It opened to the public on March 14, 1992, and was created and built by Gaylord Entertainment.

In 1996, Fiesta Texas was acquired by Time Warner, and so the park subsequently became a Six Flags park. No major changes were made, but the signature DC Comics and Looney Tunes characters were introduced at the park.

The park features six themed areas with various attractions as well as award-winning entertainment.

In 1997, the park introduced a DC Comics Super Heroes Live show. The show notably included Batgirl, possibly to cash in on Batman & Robin which was a big summer release at the time, and Hal Jordan as Green Lantern, even though he'd been possessed by Parallax in the comics at this time.

Six Flags Fiesta Texas' temporary closure announcement.

On March 13, in response to the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic, Six Flags Fiesta Texas joined many other Six Flags parks by announcing that the park would be temporarily suspending operations effective the next day, March 14, until at least the end of March. While there were no reported cases of COVID-19 at the property, the safety of Fiesta Texas' guests and team members was seen as the upmost priority.
