Featuring characters and themes from a variety of Warner Bros. properties such as Looney Tunes and DC Comics, the park opened to the public in 1967 as the second of three theme parks built by Six Flags. It features 11 roller coasters, including top - ranked Mind Bender and Goliath that have been recognized annually by Amusement Today, and over 30 other rides, shows, and attractions. Hurricane Harbor, a 7 - acre ( 2.8 ha ) water park included in the price of admission to the amusement park, was added in 2014.

He settled upon a parcel of land located along the Chattahoochee River just west of the city of Atlanta, and design work started in 1964. As the park opened in 1967, Six Flags became the first multi-gate theme park operator in the United States. Like its sister park in Texas and others, the initial design and theming of Six Flags Over Georgia was inspired by six different flags that have flown over the lands that have comprised present - day Georgia during its history. The six flags at the Georgia park are those of Spain, France, the United Kingdom, the United States, the Confederate States, and the state of Georgia. Over the years most of the original historical themes have been dropped in favor of cartoon and superhero themes. Six Flags Over Georgia is not owned by Six Flags Entertainment Corp. In an arrangement similar to that for Six Flags Over Texas, it is owned by a group of investors, Six Flags Over Georgia Ltd. ( L.P. ) and is managed by the corporation. In years past, this has caused significant friction, including legal action. When the park was managed by Time Warner Entertainment, the limited partnership sued Time Warner in 1997, claiming it had neglected to invest in the park and overcharged the partners for the improvements it did receive. A Gwinnett County civil court jury agreed and awarded the partners damages in excess of US $600 million. In 1998, Time Warner sold its interests in the Six Flags parks to Premier Parks of Oklahoma City, which later changed its name to Six Flags Theme Parks, Inc. In late 2010, Six Flags began the process of removing licensed theming from attractions. Several licenses were terminated including the license with Thomas the Tank Engine. Thomas Town was renamed and rethemed to Whistlestop Park in time for the 2011 season. On August 29, 2013, Six Flags officially announced it would add a Hurricane Harbor water park next door to the park for the 2014 season. In late April 2014, the park announced that it will expand their season from October to January, to include the new Christmas event, Holiday in the Park for years to come. As part of Six Flags ' 2015 capital investment program, Six Flags Over Georgia received two rides in its Gotham City section. The first, `` The Joker : Chaos Coaster '' is a Larson Giant Loop ride approximately 70 feet in height, while the second, `` Harley Quinn Spinsanity '', is a more traditional Tilt - A-Whirl family ride. Both attractions are part of a broader renovation of Gotham City, which will also include a new character meet - and - greet area and improvements to the existing Gotham City Eatery restaurant. In 2016, Six Flags added two new children areas to the park -- `` Bugs Bunny Boomtown '' and `` DC Super Friends '', the first in the Six Flags chain. On June 16, 2016, it was announced that Dodge City Bumper Cars would be closed and removed from the park to make room for a new ride in 2017. On September 1, 2016, the park announced that an all new dark ride named Justice League : Battle For Metropolis would replace Dodge City Bumper Cars. Rides and attractions Six Flags Over Georgia, like most amusement parks, prides itself on its roller coaster collection. Goliath and Mind Bender routinely rank among the top steel roller coasters listed by Amusement Today magazine in its Golden Ticket Awards. The collection expanded in 2011 with the addition of Dare Devil Dive, a Euro - Fighter roller coaster from German designer Gerstlauer. Aside from the roller coasters, Six Flags Over Georgia maintains a large number of other rides and attractions. Two attractions of note are Acrophobia, installed in 2001 as the world 's first `` floorless '' freefall tower ride, and the Riverview Carousel. Riverview Carousel Riverview Carousel is one of only three remaining five - abreast carousels known to exist. Located in an area of the park commonly referred to as Carousel Hill, The Riverview Carousel opened at the park in 1972. It is a 1908 PTC Carousel and is located in the Cotton States section after being moved from Riverview Park ( Chicago ). It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on January 27, 1995.

Incidents Main article : Incidents at Six Flags parks Over the years, a number of incidents have occurred at the park, including some fatalities. Batman The Ride has been the scene of two fatal incidents nearly identical in nature, where individuals were underneath the attraction while it was operational and were struck and killed by the train itself or by the riders ' exposed legs. Portions of Six Flags Over Georgia lie within the flood plain of the Chattahoochee River, which has caused occasional problems whenever the river overflows its banks. Most recently, in September 2009, the park suffered severe flooding, as did much of the surrounding area. The bulk of the flooding occurred during the week, at a point in the season when the park was closed on weekdays. The park managed to clean up the damage and open as normal the following weekend.
