Out in Events Announces Gays Gone Wild! at Fairgrounds X, Gay and Lesbian Day At Six Flags Great Adventure.
New York, NY: Out in Events announced this week that Fairgrounds X, better known as ‘Gay and Lesbian Day at Six Flags’, will take place Saturday, September 7 at Six Flags Great Adventure in Jackson, NJ. Fairgrounds is the largest private LGBT event in the United States. This year, to accommodate the growing number of LGBT families, the hours have been extended and even kiddie rides will be open! The new hours are 10:30am till midnight. At 8pm, the park will be closed to the public and remain open exclusively to Fairgrounds X ticket holders. In addition, for the first time in its ten year history, Fairgrounds guests will have access to Great Adventure’s Wild Safari! DJ Hector Fonseca, DJ Eddie Baez, DJ Steve Sidewalk, Meg Live (Bad Boy Records, MTV – Puff Daddy’s “Making His Band), Bex (Billboard Top 10 Dance Charts), Cheer New York, and www.LaserLightShow.ORG – will provide the musical entertainment. A portion of the net proceeds will benefit the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force Action Fund, The Gay Lesbian Center of NY and The Imperial Court of NY.
“In celebration of ten years of Fairgrounds, we are going wild,” says co-founder Mark Nelson, the events planner and producer who helped found the annual LGBT celebration. “The all-new Safari Off Road Adventure will take guests on an intense, up-close animal experience unlike anything they have ever encountered. Guests will splash through ponds, climb hills, cross bridges and venture over rugged terrain – and it’s all included with Fairgrounds X admission!”
Since the Safari attraction is a 90-minute tour, and closes at 5pm, producers recommend arriving to the park early.
Also open for the first time at Fairgrounds will be the Sky Way, a ride that transports guests from Lakefront to Frontier Adventures while offering a bird’s-eye-view of the park in a personal cable car.
Six Flags’ Fairgrounds launched ten years ago at Six Flags Great Adventure. “It was wildly successful from the start”, explains co-founder Gage Kristofer.
Organizers estimate ten thousand gay men and women (and their friends and families) will attend Fairgrounds X. “We welcome gay communities from Washington DC, Boston, Pittsburg and the entire tri-state area to join the fun. Fairgrounds is truly a coming together of all the area’s LGBT communities, uniting with pride.”
“Last year saw an influx of gay newlyweds and gay families with their children,” he adds.
Six Flags Great Adventure is world renown for its award-winning roller coasters. Amusement Today awarded El Toro coaster with its Golden Ticket for being the #2 top wooden coaster in the country. At a record-breaking 76 degree incline, El Toro features the steepest drop of any wooden roller coaster in the USA. They also awarded a Golden Ticket to the Nitro coaster, ranking it the #3 steel coaster in the country. Nitro blasts riders 230 feet in the air with a 215-foot drop at speeds approaching 80 mph.
There is also Green Lantern, a stand-up coaster that delivers a smooth, white-knuckled adventure, upside down on a 15-story ride of twisting steel!
Other maximum thrill rides are Batman, Bizzaro, Dare Devil Dive, Kingda Ka, Rolling Thunder, Slingshot, Superman:Ultimate Flight, The Twister and SkyScreamer, a towering swing ride that climbs twenty-four stories off the ground and then spins around at 40mph. All will be open at Fairgrounds X.
Even with the anticipated record crowd this year, the park can handle 60,000. Six Flags Great Adventure is prepared to keep ride lines moving swiftly at Fairgrounds X. Plus, this year’s VIP pass insures quicker ride access after 8pm.
At 8pm, Fairgrounds X will be a closed private event. Season passes will not be honored. It is the one night each year when LGBT attendees can walk hand-in-hand and enjoy the open-air thrill rides without fear of harassment.
“With the recent supreme court rulings, we have a lot to celebrate this year,” continues Nelson. “Come out to Six Flags and let’s get wild.”
