Rookie Racer isn't the only big change for this corner of Six Flags St. Louis.

Opening Day at Six Flags St. Louis, Eureka, Missouri

Across the tracks from Rookie Racer where the Dragon's Flight Skycoaster up charge attraction once sat, is where the new for 2024 Joker: Carnival of Chaos ride is being built. On opening day there was land clearing and electrical ran for the pendulum ride. It is supposed to open in the second half of the summer. Joker Carnival of Chaos will be a swinging ride with a fun house added on to the rides queue.

Across from the construction the Grand Ole Carousel was still in hibernation as Six Flags St. Louis continues to lovingly restore this classic.

Since last year the rounding boards of the Grand Ole Carousel have had some attention as the park is nearing completion of this labor of love.

If you are interested to see the work going on in the paint shop of Six Flags St. Louis to restore this classic on my next visit I was given a behind the scenes tour of all that was going into bringing this beloved carousel back to life. Don't worry there will be a trip report for that visit.
