Conquistador, commonly known as Six Flags Over Texas’ swinging ship ride, has officially been retired. Conquistador was originally set to reopen in 2026 with the park’s record-breaking dive coaster expansion. Six Flags explored all options for Conquistador’s future life, but the ride’s age and condition ultimately determined its fate. Conquistador last operated on March 23, 2025 before surrounding construction projects blocked it off from the rest of the park.
A slew of projects continue on as summer begins to wrap up at Six Flags Over Texas. At front gate, more shade structures have been constructed. Southern Palace Theatre’s first phase of renovation has come together with a refreshed paint scheme on its exterior. El Aserradero Flume 2 is also in the middle of a refurbishment, while more footers are being installed for 2026’s dive coaster addition.
Dino Off Road Adventure, new for 2024 at Six Flags Over Texas, is the park's reimagining of the Chaparral Antique Cars. Featuring fifteen dinosaur animatronics, riders jump into the four-person vehicle and drive along 1,470 feet of track. Dino Off Road Adventure's new vehicles were designed closely alongside blueprints from original Arrow antique cars.
