Six Flags Great America in Gurnee has confirmed that two attractions will be closing forever.
Revolution, the spinning pendulum ride located in the County Fair section of the park, will be removed after this season. The ride’s fate was pretty much sealed when Great America announced Sky Striker, their new addition for 2024. Sky Striker is a much taller and faster pendulum ride and will be located just steps from where Revolution sits now. You can find a full preview of the new attraction here.
Mardi Gras Hangover is also being removed from the park. Hangover is a Larson Loop attraction that was billed as the largest ride of its kind when it first opened in 2018. It takes riders back and forth in one giant loop.
Great America visitors will be able to ride both attractions one last time this weekend. On a post on their website, the park announced that October 28th and 29th will be the last dates both rides will be available.
