Also included in the partnership is Glenn Murphy, a consumer executive and founder of FIS-Holdings Ltd.
The group have announced plans to engage Six Flags leadership regarding ways to improve the guest experience and increase shareholder value.
Kings Island, alongside its sister parks such as Cedar Point and Canada’s Wonderland, became a part of the Six Flags chain after its merger with Cedar Fair in 2024. Now operating as the Six Flags Entertainment Corporation, it currently owns over 40 amusement and water parks.
However, Six Flags faced numerous challenges in the months following the merger, leading to a $220 million loss in the first quarter of 2025.
Kelce and his associates have yet to reveal any concrete plans for chain.
Kings Island is located at 6300 Kings Island Drive in Mason.
