Kingda Ka, the world’s tallest roller coaster, will be among the rides removed from Six Flags Great Adventure to make way for a “multi-record-breaking launch coaster” that will open in 2026. The roller coaster, which opened at the Jackson, New Jersey, theme park in 2005, was the tallest in the world at 456 feet high. At the time it opened, it was also the fastest roller coaster. In the meantime, a new roller coaster, “The Flash,” which is “North America’s first super boomerang roller coaster,” will open in 2025, said Bacica. On social media, many fans appeared upset over how Six Flags Great Adventure handled the closure of Kingda Ka.
