The parent company of Darien Lake is merging with another amusement company.
Six Flags and Cedar Fair announced their merger, which will create a new company which will own and operate 27 amusement parks, 15 water parks and nine resort properties in 17 US States, Canada, and Mexico.
The new company will keep the Six Flags name and will be 51.2% owned by Cedar Point. The current Six Flags will own 48.8% of the new company.
Six Flags purchased Darien Lake in 1999, sold it in 2007, then repurchased it in 2018.
