Where to get the best Deals on Six Flags Discovery Kingdom Tickets

If you are looking to find the best deal on Six Flag Discovery Kingdom tickets, there are multiple places where you can go to purchase them. 

Utilize the online deals from the official Six Flags website

The first way to save is by purchasing the Six Flags Discovery Kingdom tickets online at sixflags.com before your travel date. By purchasing your tickets well before the day you plan on going to Six Flags Discovery Kingdom, you can utilize deals that wouldn’t be available otherwise. You also can save money by purchasing early as well!

AAA membership discount

Another great way to save is using the AAA ticket discount if you purchase online through AAA, as long as you are a member. Doing so can save you up to 50% on your tickets! If you don’t purchase through AAA, you can show your AAA membership card at the admissions desk and receive $5 off your tickets. 

Use the promo code “COKE” for 50% off your tickets (while the deal is valid and tickets aren’t on sale)

Every year, Six Flags and Coca-Cola have a promotion that allows up to 50% off general admission tickets for the Six Flags theme parks (including Six Flags Discovery Kingdom). If you go to sixflags.com, find the promo tab, and type in COKE, you may receive up to 50% off your tickets. If the code doesn’t work, tickets are already on sale on the official site, or the promotion has ended.  

Costco and Supermarket deals

Another way to save is by searching Costco’s tickets savings section. Often, Costco will have a highly discounted ticket deal for theme parks across the country, Six Flags included. Be on the lookout for Six Flags Discovery Kingdom discounts while you shop at Costco because you could save big. 

Your local supermarket may also have discounted Six Flags tickets and other theme parks available to purchase at the customer service desk. You can save tons of money purchasing your tickets through your local supermarket compared to buying at the ticket counter at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom.
