A rather extensive passholder email was sent out. Because it’s so extensive, I’ll summarise it here:
- Giant Drop has been delayed, due to weather & finding “some opportunities to further extend the life of one of Dreamworld's most iconic rides”. They also talk about repainting being completed, and that they’re currently planning to install the lights. Images are attached:
Giant Drop gondolas
Giant Drop nameplate
Dreamworld lights
- Mentions the work done with Dreamland, and how they’re planning on commencing work on Escape Coaster, Dreamworld Dodgems (both referred to by those names in the email, not the new names as of yet), plus the Big Red Boat & Planes rides. Serpent Slayer’s gondolas are currently being painted. Dreamworld Theatre & the Tree House are planned to reopen for the Easter School Holidays. Bananas Carousel is open, but not in its final stage, with further work happening in the coming months. They caution that weather & other factors can impede construction, as they did with GD, and to check the maintenance schedule before planning visits. Images, again, are attached:
Bananas Carousel
Dreamworld Theatre sign
Serpent Slayer gondolas
Kenny statue
Belinda statue (assumedly for the Tree House sign, as it resembles concept art. If so, it’s a detailed 3 dimensional sign! On the Gold Coast!)
Entrance sign
- Finally, they mention park atmosphere additions, namely roaming entertainers, roaming animal keepers w/ native wildlife, and Foam Parties near Gold Coaster (saw them when I went, it’s a staff member shooting foam from a cannon into a sectioned-off area of path adjacent to the toilets near Gold Coaster). Says there’s more to come.
