Six Flags Now Implementing A Chaperone Policy

Big changes are coming to Six Flags Fiesta Texas in San Antonio. Starting soon, the park will implement a new chaperone policy aimed at enhancing safety and improving the overall guest experience.

Under the new policy:

• After 4:00 p.m., guests under 17 years old must be accompanied by an adult 21 or older to remain in the park.

• Chaperones must present valid ID and stay with their group throughout the visit.

The move follows a growing trend across theme parks and entertainment venues nationally, where youth supervision policies are being used to create safer, more enjoyable environments for all guests.

But what does this mean for local families, the surrounding community, and real estate buyers considering the area?

Let’s take a look.

🛡️ Why Is Six Flags Implementing This Policy?

The chaperone requirement is being introduced to:

• Reduce incidents involving unsupervised minors

• Ensure a more family-friendly evening environment

• Support staff and security in maintaining safe, positive experiences

As parks get busier in the evenings—especially during summer and event weekends—Six Flags aims to set a standard that helps everyone enjoy the park more confidently.

• Public safety

• Youth responsibility

• Quality community spaces

And for many, it’s a reflection of what makes San Antonio an attractive place to call home—especially for military families, first-time buyers, and multigenerational households.
