Wednesday, September 5th, 2018

Six Flags Over Georgia — the Thrill Capital of the South — announced the tallest swinging pendulum ride in the Southeast, Pandemonium, will debut in 2019. Towering a staggering 15-stories tall, this impressive giant disk will reach speeds up to 70 miles per hour as it whips back and forth — higher and higher — giving riders an exhilarating riding experience as they soar high above the Atlanta city skyline.

“Six Flags is recognized throughout the world for delivering the industry’s most thrilling and innovative rides year after year,” said Park President Dale Kaetzel. “Pandemonium is the perfect mix of mayhem and adrenaline and the latest addition to Six Flags Over Georgia’s continued investment in new attractions like Twisted Cyclone and JUSTICE LEAGUE: Battle for Metropolis.”

Pandemonium is an oversized pendulum ride that will send riders on a dizzying journey to extreme heights; delivering epic, high-flying thrills for guests of all ages.

Pandemonium highlights include:

  • 40 riders soaring across the sky at a mind-blowing 70 miles per hour;

  • A giant pendulum swinging back and forth while rotating counterclockwise; and

  • A feeling of weightlessness while flying an exhilarating 147 feet in the air.

Pandemonium will be the centerpiece of the park’s new ScreamPunk-themed area, featuring revamped food locations and shopping experiences in 2019. ScreamPunk is a Six Flags twist on the popular Steampunk subgenre, combining science fantasy with 19th century industrial steam-powered machinery. The ScreamPunk section opens in March. Pandemonium will debut in late spring, 2019.
