In 2026, Six Flags Over Texas will unveil an experience unlike anything the Lone Star State has ever seen—a seamless blend of culture, cuisine, and world-class thrills that transforms a theme park visit into a destination-worthy escape. At the center of it all is Tormenta Rampaging Run, a record-shattering roller coaster that rises 309 feet above the Dallas-Fort Worth skyline. More than an engineering marvel, this landmark attraction reimagines Spain’s centuries-old tradition of the running of the bulls, inviting travelers to feel the anticipation, the rush, and the release of legend brought to life.

The story begins in Rancho de la Tormenta, a richly detailed Spanish village alive with vibrant banners, music, and myth. Here, the story of Tormenta—the legendary bull too fierce for any matador—infuses every stone and plaza with meaning. It is from this setting that riders embark on their adventure, ascending into the clouds before plunging into a record-breaking 95-degree, beyond-vertical drop. Along the way, they’ll hurtle through a 179-foot vertical loop and a 218-foot inversion, reaching speeds of 87 miles per hour over a staggering 4,199 feet of track. It is the world’s tallest, fastest, and longest dive coaster—yet it’s told through the lens of tradition, artistry, and narrative.

After the adrenaline fades, the experience continues with Cocina Abuela, a restaurant that elevates theme park dining to an art form. The air carries the aromas of Spanish rice, papas bravas, chicken tinga, and house-made guacamole—scratch-made favorites that celebrate the rich culinary traditions of Spain and Latin America. With its bold flavors and authentic touches, it’s the kind of dining that encourages guests to slow down, linger, and savor, a rare invitation in the heart of a thrill park.

The timing of Tormenta Rampaging Run’s debut is equally significant. Six Flags Over Texas, the original park that launched an empire, celebrates its 65th anniversary in 2026. A season of special events, exclusive previews, and anniversary celebrations will ensure the milestone is marked with as much style as substance, honoring the park’s legacy while redefining its future.

With its mix of cultural storytelling, refined dining, and record-breaking thrills, Six Flags Over Texas has crafted more than a new attraction. It has created a destination where Spain’s timeless traditions meet Texas’s bold spirit, offering travelers a reason to experience the original Six Flags in a whole new way.
