New Dive Coaster Coming to Six Flags Over Texas in 2026

Bad News, La Vibora and El Diablo Going Into Retirement

The Spain section of the park is where this new coaster will be going and to make room for it, two rides will be calling it a career at the park. La Vibora which has been operating since 1987 and El Diablo which is actually a newer ride that opened in 2019, will be going away. No word on when these two rides final days of operation will be in case you wanted to get one last thrill in before they're gone for good.
