At opening, where to start

Six Flags Great America is big, so hit the headline coasters before the midday lines build.

Wrath of Rakshasa first

Head to County Fair for the new dive coaster before the line stacks up, since new rides draw the longest early waits.

Goliath and Maxx Force next

Ride Goliath on the west side and Maxx Force in Southwest Territory early, then work the back of the park while the front fills.

Save DC Universe for later

Batman, The Joker, and Superman near the entrance stay busy midday but ease up late, so ride them on the way out.

How to use this map

Orient by the central lake. The entrance opens at Carousel Plaza, with DC Universe and Orleans Place toward the front, County Fair and Yukon Territory around the north and west, and Southwest Territory and Hometown Square out past the lake. Hurricane Harbor sits next door with its own gate.

For a copy you can carry without signal, open the printable PDF map linked at the top of this page and save it to your phone, or print it at home. For live ride waits, open the official Six Flags app. The area navigator above is the fastest way to see which coaster sits where.
