This location was the Redland Quarry from 1934 to 1988. The amusement park was built from 1990 to 1992 by Gaylord Entertainment, the company that also owned the now-defunct Opryland amusement park, and the USAA Real Estate Company, Fiesta Texas in the abandoned limestone quarry. The park was planned to be focused on the variety of music types found in Texas, but it soon began to feature a variety of amusement park rides. These days, several of its coasters make good use of the cliffs that surround the park. In 1996, Six Flags Theme Parks took control of the park, and it became the eighth park owned by the chain. Its name changed from Fiesta Texas to Six Flags Fiesta Texas at that time.

Three coasters have been built since my last visit: Wonder Woman Golden Lasso Coaster opened in 2018. It is the prototype Single Rail built by Rocky Mountain Construction and features three inversions and a 90° drop. Dr. Diabolical's Cliffhanger opened in 2022. It is a Bolliger and Mabillard "Narrow" Dive Coaster with seven seats per row. It has two inversions, a 150-foot lift hill, and a 95° drop. Kid Flash Cosmic Coaster opened November 2023 but has been Standing But Not Operating since July 2024. It is a dual-track single rail coaster built by Skyline Attractions. Each track was less than 600 feet long, but technical issues forced the closure of the ride. Skyline Attractions, a company formed in Orlando, Florida in 2014, has only built four roller coasters. One operated for four years before removal, one ran about one year before removal, one ran for less than a year before becoming SBNO, and this one has been SBNO after just nine months of operation.

Two coasters have left the Six Flags Fiesta Texas theme park:
