During Hurricane Katrina in August 2005, Six Flags New Orleans was completely flooded.
Since then, the park has stood abandoned, save for visits from urban explorers and alligators.
A lease was signed in October 2023 to begin redeveloping the land, but work has not started yet.

Almost two decades later, Six Flags New Orleans still sits abandoned, now a time capsule of life before Katrina.
