Six Flags Mexico, originally known as Reino Aventura, is a theme park located in Mexico City, Mexico. The park is one of three parks outside the United States currently owned by Six Flags.
History
The park had an opening preview on 20 November 1981 and was scheduled to have its grand opening on on 16 December.[1]
The park first opened in 1982[citation needed] under the name Reino Aventura (Adventure Kingdom in English). The park was 75 acres with sections themed to Polynesian, Spanish, Swiss-German, and Old West.[2]
The park underwent a refurbishment in 1992 and was renamed Nuevo Reino Aventura. The name was returned to Reino Aventura in 1995.
In 1999, Premier Parks, owner of the Six Flags chain of theme parks, purchased Reino Aventura for an estimated $59 million.[3] As a result of this, an announcement was later made on 8 December 1999 stating that the park would be rebranded as Six Flags Mexico, and that 20 new attractions would be added for the 2000 season.[4]
