Six Flags Magic Mountain Sets 2026 Debut for Looney Tunes Land as Coaster Count Falls

The park will rebuild its four-acre family area in phases starting in early January, replacing two junior coasters with new character-led play spaces.

Overview

  • Construction begins after Holiday in the Park in early January 2026 and will roll out in three phases so portions of the area stay open, with a full reopening targeted by summer 2026.
  • The reimagined land is split into four zones—Bugs Bunny’s Play Park, Taz‑Mania, Road Runner Ridge and Camp Duck Amuck—drawing on the Chuck Jones era and Six Flags’ longstanding Warner Bros. partnership.
  • Confirmed changes include Whistlestop Train becoming Taz’s Tasmanian Train Tours, Taz’s Trucking Company rethemed to Daffy’s Forest Four‑Wheelers, a refreshed Merrie Melodies Merrie‑Go‑Round, and a new Granny’s House facade at Wascal’s.
  • Two kiddie coasters, Magic Flyer (1947) and Speedy Gonzales Hot Rod Racers (2014), will be permanently removed, dropping Magic Mountain’s coaster count to 17 and ending its “Coaster Capital” lead as Poland’s Energylandia takes the top spot.
  • Separately, the park’s first‑of‑its‑kind thrill coaster, previously slated for 2026, has been delayed to 2027 as part of revised construction timelines within a broader multi‑year investment plan.
