Hurricane Harbor Chicago and Hurricane Harbor Rockford at Six Flags are set to make a splash over Labor Day weekend as both water parks open for the 2022 season Saturday.

This year, Hurricane Harbor Rockford includes new dining options, upgrades to the kids’ areas, and the renovation of Tsunami Bay, Illinois’ largest wave pool.
Single-day tickets for both locations begin at $29.99. The parks are open from 11 a.m. - 6 p.m.
Hurricane Harbor Chicago is adjacent to Six Flags Great America in Gurnee, at 1 Great America Pkwy. Hurricane Harbor Rockford is located at 7820 Cherryvale N Blvd in Cherry Valley.
