Item 5. Other Events

      On April 20, 1999, Premier Parks Inc. (the "Registrant") registered $1.0
billion of undesignated securities pursuant to a shelf registration statement on
Form S-3 (File No. 333-76595) (the "Registration Statement"). The Registration
Statement was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on
May 7, 1999.

      On May 27, 1999, the Registrant announced that its two primary operating
subsidiaries, Premier Parks Operations Inc. ("Premier Operations") and Six Flags
Theme Parks Inc. ("SFTP"), had commenced tender offers to purchase up to an
aggregate of $375.0 million of their outstanding senior notes. Concurrent with
their respective tender offers, Premier Operations and SFTP have obtained
consents to the adoption of certain proposed amendments to the indentures
governing the tendered notes. On June 11, 1999, Premier Operations, SFTP and the
United States Trust Company of New York, as trustee for the indentures governing
the tendered notes, executed supplemental indentures effecting such proposed
amendments. Upon consummation of the tender offers, the supplemental indentures
will eliminate certain restrictive covenants and other provisions contained in
such indentures.

      On June 18, 1999, the Registrant announced that it would finance the
tender offers by its subsidiaries with the proceeds from the sale of a new issue
of senior notes pursuant to the Registration Statement. On June 25, 1999, the
Registrant filed a Prospectus Supplement to the Registration Statement, pursuant
to Rule 424(b)(2), with respect to an offering of $430,000,000 principal amount
of the Registrant's 9 3/4% Senior Notes due 2007, the proceeds of which would be
used to fund the tender offers. The Bank of New York will serve as trustee for
the indenture governing these new notes.

      As a condition to the consummation of the tender offers and the new note
offering, each of Premier Operations' and SFTP's credit facilities have been
amended to permit such subsidiaries to fund interest payments on the new notes.

      The Registrant is filing herewith the following exhibits in connection
with its offering of the such 9 3/4% Senior Notes pursuant to the Registration
