For the 17th consecutive year, Six Flags Magic Mountain will collect food for the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank during the annual “Bag-A-Ticket” holiday food drive on Monday, November 25.

Six Flags Magic Mountain’s annual “Holiday in the Park” extravaganza will light up the season even brighter this year. With more than two million lights and seven uniquely themed areas, the park will transform into a spectacularly lit winter wonderland for guests to enjoy this holiday season.
