www.independent.co.ukHere’s the latest on the Six Flags Titan power outage:
- The Titan at Six Flags Over Texas stopped mid-air due to a park-wide power outage on May 16, 2026. Riders were evacuated walking down the maintenance stairs alongside the ride, and the park reopened later that day with most attractions resuming operation.[1][2][3]
- Six Flags stated the outage was caused by an external construction crew hitting an underground power line, leading to temporary loss of power across the park. Riders on the Titan and other rides were safely escorted off, and guests were offered complimentary return tickets.[2][3]
- Coverage notes that the incident drew widespread video footage of riders descending the ride and that the park looked to resume normal operations the following day, with ongoing anniversary celebrations and a planned reopening schedule.[3]
