JACKSON — Six Flags Great Adventure’s Wild Safari has introduced a new attraction this spring with the debut of a brown bear cub named JJ, park officials announced.
The cub, born just over two months ago to mother Hollywood, is now visible to visitors as the pair spend time together in a designated habitat within the safari’s brown bear area. The addition offers guests a chance to observe the early development of a young bear up close.
Visitors can view JJ and Hollywood through two safari experiences: the Wild Safari Base Camp truck tour, which is available as a standalone attraction, and the Safari Off-Road Adventure, accessible from Frontier Station at the theme park.
The debut comes as Six Flags launches its 2026 season, which includes a mix of new attractions and park improvements. Among the upcoming highlights is Shoreline Pier, a redesigned Boardwalk-style area set to open later this spring, featuring classic-inspired rides, updated food options and a refreshed atmosphere.
Park officials also noted infrastructure upgrades, including new track sections on the El Toro roller coaster aimed at improving ride comfort, expanded Wi-Fi access and enhancements to dining venues such as the Main Street Pub.
To mark the start of the season, Six Flags is offering a limited-time promotion on its 2026 Gold Pass. The deal allows guests to upgrade from a Silver Pass to a Gold Pass at no additional cost. The pass includes access to three attractions — Six Flags Great Adventure, Wild Safari and Hurricane Harbor — along with benefits such as free parking, unlimited visits and select discounts.
The Gold Pass also provides entry to several regional parks, including Dorney Park & Wildwater Kingdom, Kings Dominion and Six Flags New England.
