Yesterday, April 12, was opening day for the park, and the weather couldn’t
have been better! The crowds? Well, they were practically nonexistent.
In spite of the typical opening-day-glitches here and there, it was a
great day at the park!
For those chomping at the bit to be spun around at dizzying heights over
Six Flags New England, here’s the information we’ve received from the park:
SkyScreamer Media Day is scheduled for Thursday, May 15. SFNE’s
intention is to offer the attraction exclusively to Season Pass holders throughout
that weekend. Then the following week the attraction would be open to the
public.
As you know none of these dates are deemed official as it is all based on
the timelines of the New England SkyScreamer testing and completion.
(Logistics for Media Day will be shared as soon as they are in place.)

—————————
Registration:
Register at the front gate the day of the event. You can pick up your
tickets, parking passes, and wristbands for the picnic there.
You can pre-register and pay in advance by mailing in your registration to
Wade Abbott, but tickets will still need to be picked up the day of the
event.
If you need to pick up parking passes, do not park in the main lot
initially. Instead, drive to the drop-off point, (on the east side of Route 9),
pick up your parking passes and then proceed to the main parking lot. It will
save you the cost of parking.
