Power outage shuts down Six Flags Great Adventure through Friday
JACKSON−Six Flags Great Adventure will remain closed through Friday due to a power outage within the amusement park, the park announced.
Utility crews worked to solve the problem throughout the morning. But Six Flags tweeted around 3 p.m. that Great Adventure was closed for the day and is expected to reopen at 10:30 a.m. Saturday.
Hurricane Harbor and Wild Safari, which are a short distance from the park, remained in operation Friday, park spokeswoman Kristin Fitzgerald said.
The theme park will remain closed for the rest of the day. Crews are working diligently to restore power and the park is expected to open at 10:30 am tomorrow. Guests with tickets for July 22 may use their tickets through Labor Day. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.

Chris Hoenig, spokesman for JCP&L, said the outage appears to be a problem with park-owned equipment.
"JCP&L crews have found no fault in our equipment out there," he said.
Hurricane Harbor and Wild Safari are operating as scheduled. Great Adventure theme park opening is delayed due to a loss of power. We hope to have power restored and the park operating this afternoon. Check our website banner for further updates.

Fitzgerald said theme park tickets for Friday were being honored at the water park. And Six Flags offered Wild Safari free to guests onsite.
Theme park tickets for Friday will also be accepted through Labor Day and Six Flags will refund any date-specific theme park admission plan, like THE FLASH Pass, she said.
Updates will be posted on the Six Flags Great Adventure website and on Twitter, Fitzgerald said.
