1010.0. "How late is it open?" by USOPS::BAKER () Thu Aug 24 1995 14:10

    I'd like to take my sons to Great Adventures sometime in 
    the fall.  We went to Disney last summer and the lines
    were unbelievable!   So I figure I can beat the crowds
    by going in the fall.  
    
    How late in the fall season does Six Flags remain open?
    Are the rates cheaper in the fall?  What are the prices 
    for Adult/Child tickets?  Do you think one day is sufficient?
    If returning for a second day visit do you have to purchase
    another ticket?

    Great Adventure isn't that big a park.  One day is probably fine. 
    
    From a discount coupon I have in front of me, it looks like the park is
    open to the end of October; but I bet those water rides aren't fun
    then.  8-D

Great Adventure is only open on the weekends until the end of October.  Most of
the water rides are shut down or will shut down shortly.

The later in the season you wait, the shorter the lines get.

Also, sometime in October they start their "Fright Fest" or whatever they call
it.  The park is decorated for Halloween and they add a "Haunted Hayride".
