The month of May will bring increasingly warmer temperatures, and Hawaiian Falls – which has two Fort Worth-area waterparks, in Roanoke and Mansfield – will help with the opening of both locations, which will include some snazzy upgrades.

The two waterparks – along with the location in Waco – will each open for the 2026 season on Saturday, May 2 for season pass holders, and for the general public on May 9.

According to a release, visitors will find a variety of new park enhancements, as Hawaiian Falls has invested $1 million in park upgrades, new amenities, enhanced food and beverage offerings, and special events.

Like many others, Hawaiian Falls will celebrate America’s 250th birthday with a season‑long patriotic theme, including interactive photo opportunities, surprise giveaways, and limited‑time patriotic food and beverage offerings.

Active-duty military, retired, and veterans with valid ID can purchase a special daily admission ticket priced at $17.76 (plus tax).

The parks will also introduce a Dive‑In Movie Series, featuring family‑friendly films shown on newly installed LED jumbo screens in the wave pools.

Additionally, the parks will host sports‑themed events throughout the summer, including appearances by popular local sports mascots and live‑streamed sporting events.

“We’re looking forward to welcoming families back to Hawaiian Falls this summer,” said Ron McKenzie, senior director of marketing, in a statement. “Our teams have worked hard during the offseason to refresh the parks and create an exciting lineup of new events and enhancements for families to enjoy all summer long.”

Since Hawaiian Falls was acquired by Orlando‑based Ripley’s Believe It or Not! World Entertainment in 2025, all 2026 Hawaiian Falls Season Pass holders will receive one free ticket to Ripley’s Believe It or Not! in Grand Prairie.

2026 Season Passes are now on sale at hfalls.com, starting at $59.99 (plus tax).
