Six Flags Magic Mountain is a Theme Park in Valencia, California , north of Los Angeles . It opened on Memorial Day weekend on May 29 , 1971 as '''Magic Mountain'''. It wasn't until 1979 , when the park was purchased by Six Flags that the name was lengthened to include '''Six Flags'''. It is probably the most well-known park in the Six Flags Amusement Park chain, as it played the part of the fictional park "Wally World" in the 1983 movie '' National Lampoon's Vacation '', was shown during the beginning credits to the sitcom ' Step By Step ', was the fictional park shown in the movies '' Encino Man '', played a pivotal role in the finale to the film ' Rollercoaster ', and was the setting of the infamous made-for-TV movie KISS Meets The Phantom Of The Park . With the completion of ''Tatsu'' in 2006 , Six Flags Magic Mountain will break the tie with Cedar Point for the title of "most roller coasters at one park" with seventeen, though the park is known for not operating all of its roller coasters on any given day .
