The company’s existing offices in Arlington, Texas, will become its primary headquarters, with the transition expected by March 2027.

Six Flags Entertainment Corporation plans to move its corporate headquarters from Charlotte, North Carolina, to Arlington, Texas, in 2027, the amusement park company announced Tuesday.

The company said its existing offices at Choctaw Stadium in Arlington will become its primary corporate headquarters. The transition is expected to be completed by March 2027.

Choctaw Stadium has served as a Six Flags corporate office since 2020 and already houses some of the company’s corporate employees. Six Flags said the move will bring more of its leadership and shared business operations together in one location.

“The decision to return the Company’s headquarters to Arlington is a continuation of our efforts to evolve the organization and enhance operational efficiency,” Six Flags President and CEO John Reilly said in a press release. 

The move also brings company leadership closer to Six Flags’ five properties in Texas. Arlington is home to Six Flags Over Texas, the company’s original park, which opened more than six decades ago.

Six Flags operates 20 amusement parks, 14 water parks and nine resorts across North America, along with an amusement park in Saudi Arabia.

The company said it will remain a major employer in the Charlotte area through its investments in Carowinds and Carolina Harbor. Carowinds is preparing to open its new Rip Roarin’ Falls attraction in 2027.

Six Flags will also continue to maintain an office in Sandusky, Ohio.

Earlier this year, Six Flags announced it would be selling seven of its parks to Kansas City-based EPR Properties for $331 million. The parks that were sold include: Six Flags St. Louis; Six Flags Great Escape: Queensbury, New York; Worlds of Fun: Kansas City; Valleyfair: Shakopee, Minnesota; Michigan’s Adventure: Muskegon; Schlitterbahn Waterpark: Galveston; and Six Flags La Ronde: Montreal.

At the time of the announcement, Reilly framed the sale as a sharpening of focus and an optimization of the company’s portfolio. He also said the sale will allow the company to invest in new rides, upgrade infrastructure, and enhance guest experiences at its remaining parks.
