I don’t think we will see a Universal Studios here anytime soon. Considering there is one in Singapore that is not very far away or expensive to get to.

As someone who went on Mystic Manor a few weeks ago. I can confirm the ride is just an amazing example of a dark ride. The projection mapping and sets do work well.

With the announcement and demolshment of the great escape last year seems a great new announcement of what’s to come. This looks 1000% better than the old park which did have a lot of aging 90s slides. Will be good to see how it turns out. Photos are in the link. Phone wouldn’t let me upload them here.

@Gazza Lazy River, Wave Pool same thing. (End sarcasm) All jokes aside I did mean a Wave Pool.

I found this article from a while back that confirms a lazy river is coming this season. http://www.starweekly.com.au/news/funfields-to-be-home-to-victorias-first-outdoor-wave-pool/

But do we really think they want to build a rapids like ride? Considering what happened?

I don't see whats wrong with doing DA's. All theme parks around Australia are required to submit a Development Application and these are then used to issue the Building Permit license. This is a standard procedure for any building and I can't fathom why they think they should get special treatment.

No limit went to perth last year instead. Space roller also did perth but hasn't for the last 2 years. Interesting to see the mega drop not going to RMS, will be interesting to see if that comes back to Perth.

So Royal Melbourne Show ride list is out: Coca Cola Carnival: The Beast The Sky Wheel Nitro Coaster Alien Abduction Breakdance Crazy Spinning Coaster Extreme F1 Euro Slide The Hangover Freestyle Hollywood Horrors Drive Time Dodgems Rebel Rock N Roll Rockstar Sky Flyer Kamikaze Hard Rock Dodgem Cars Dragon Castle XScream Sound Wave Bungee Tramps Adventure Carnival: Pirates Adventure Pirates Revenge The Spook Crazy Cars Cliff Hanger Deluxe Sizzler Hurricane Ride The Pirate Ship Big Bubble Bump Double Decker Carousel Wave Swinger Outback monster Trucks Euro Wheel

These were done at the same time. I just made a thread to avoid a mega topic.

Key points have been taken in the images below: Link to the full report is here: https://secure.weblink.com.au/Clients/webchartclient/clients/ardentleisure/article.asp?view=21098218

Canada's Wonderland is getting a new Dive Coaster for 2019. KennyWood's Steel Curtain Coaster Dollywood's New family area with a new Vekoma Suspended family Coaster. Will be interesting to see how the Carowinds Mack Launch coaster goes or what else is announced over the next few weeks.

So creative works over the last month have posted some images on Instagram. Seems like a lot of general presentation works are happening around the park. Considering they spent 9 million dollars last year. Makes sense for them to save there pennies. Worth noting I went passed Adventure World today. Nothing major happening. Although a few minor points: - looks like some new shade added to the top half of the hill and all the way through to the Kraken queue line. - Work happening on the rail rider and Kahuna falls.

You mean Dreamworld is advertising a closed attraction? Hey I see you Buzzsaw 👀

If you look at the plan, the facade, First Aid and so on are coming down due to Asbestos. Hopfully they get replaced with something nice.
