The Park's History
Frontier City was originally opened in 1958 as a Western "town" theme-park. It originally opened up at the Oklahoma State Fairgrounds, but moved to its current location a few years later since it sprung-up so quickly. It was created to compliment Oklahoma City's western heritage. The park added spinning rides as well as several roller coasters and a log flume ride starting in the 1960s-1970s.
Frontier City was originally operated and owned by Premier Parks. Premier Parks bought Six Flags in 1998 and they took the Six Flags name. Frontier City was never branded a Six Flags Park. The Frontier City passes would only be good there and not at other Six Flags parks. Six Flags Corporate offices remained at Frontier City until 2006.
On January 27, 2006, Six Flags put Frontier City and White Water Bay up for sale. At the same time, Six Flags also announced its plan to close corporate offices in Oklahoma City and move to New York City.
On January 11, 2007, Frontier City and White Water Bay were sold to PARC 7F-Operations.
Both parks opened for the 2007 season.
