Six Flags New Orleans

Six Flags New Orleans is a 140-acre, abandoned theme park in New Orleans. It first opened in 2000, but has been closed since it was seriously damaged by flooding during Hurricane Katrina on August 29, 2005. It is currently owned by the Industrial Development Board of New Orleans. Six Flags had leased the park from 2002 until 2009, when the lease was terminated during its bankruptcy proceedings. The former park is located in New Orleans East off Interstate 10.

Despite various proposals to redevelop the site, it has remained abandoned, overgrown with plants, infested with wildlife and in poor condition. Despite these deterrents, videos and photos of the site have surfaced over the years from thrill-seekers and YouTube users. As a result, city officials became more diligent in securing the park and banning tours. The city has assigned police officers from the New Orleans Police Department to patrol the abandoned site and arrest offenders.
