"The property will celebrate the largest array of beautification and modernization efforts in the parks’ nearly 50-year history," Six Flags said in a news release. "As guests arrive, they will experience a wide range of enhancements and see dozens of projects in progress that are slated for completion later this spring and summer including new dining, rides, events and animal experiences."

Six Flags Great Adventure will be open from 11 a.m. - 7 p.m. from April 15-22, and from 10 a.m. - 8 p.m. April 23-24, the park said.

Renewed restaurants: "Two of the park’s largest indoor restaurants, Yum Yum Café and Granny’s, will feature new floors, décor, menu boards, and traffic flow. Granny’s will also feature a new, outdoor bar."

Giraffe Encounter Safari VIP tour: "This new safari VIP experience will take guests on an off-road adventure on open-air trucks. An informative and engaging tour guide will lead guests through seven sections of the Wild Safari and provide an opportunity to hand-feed giraffes at Camp Aventura. Guests can see the safari’s new babies, including three giraffe calves, Sawyer the rhinoceros, red lechwe and sable calves, and more. The Wild Safari also features an expanded, two-lane roadway with five newly paved miles.
