Presented on selected dates between late May and early September, Looney Tunes Nights feature a live-action musical parade starring popular Looney Tunes characters and popular DC Comics superheroes. The parade concludes with a fireworks presentation over Six Flags Plaza (a display visible from anywhere in the park where you can see the Sky Tower).

Throughout the year, Six Flags Magic Mountain hosts special events, including a July Fourth Fireworks Spectacular that's one of Southern California's most impressive displays. During most of October, the theme park transforms into a Halloween Fright Fest, with special attractions and events. In late summer, the park hosts Festival Latino (a Latino culture festival).
