Six Flags auction may shake up Southern California theme park sector
Saturday, 27 August 2005
Debt-ridden amusement park company Six Flags Inc. put itself up for sale Thursday, raising the prospect of a shake-up in the Southern California theme park industry.
Six Flags owns thrill-ride mecca Magic Mountain in Valencia and neighboring water park Hurricane Harbor. Those properties could be attractive to Sandusky, Ohio-based Cedar Fair, which owns Knott's Berry Farm and three Soak City water parks in Southern California, a person familiar with the company's thinking said.
