Boardwalk Nights Follows Shoreline Pier Opening
Boardwalk Nights is the closest tie to the park's 2026 Boardwalk work. Six Flags Great Adventure opened Shoreline Pier earlier this week, and the after-dark event gives that area a summer entertainment schedule just weeks after the refreshed ride lineup opened.
Star-Spangled Nights is the park's July 4 weekend fireworks event. DC Heroes and Villains Fest follows in August with character appearances and live entertainment.
