Six Flags Great Adventure is partnering with Project Purple to connect the park’s planned 2027 coaster project with pancreatic cancer awareness and patient support.
The Jackson theme park said the coaster project, currently known publicly as “Project Purple,” will be tied to the national nonprofit’s mission through June 1, 2027.
Park officials said visible construction continues along the boardwalk area. The attraction is expected to be one of the tallest coasters in the world and a record-breaking multi-launch experience.
“We’re excited to partner with Project Purple and use the visibility of this incredible new attraction to help shine a light on an important cause,” said Mike Fehnel, park president of Six Flags Great Adventure.
Fehnel said the partnership is personally meaningful because he lost his father to pancreatic cancer.
“As Project Purple rises on our skyline, we have an opportunity to raise awareness, inspire support and create a meaningful connection between unforgettable experiences and real impact,” he said.
Guests will begin to see Project Purple signage throughout the park, along with QR codes that link to more information about the organization and ways to support pancreatic cancer research and patient care.
