Vortex has reopened

@CR4ZE the park said there wasn’t any And they’ve shared this video showing the extent of the damage https://www.facebook.com/share/v/zJSo4G4RuDXUKqqg/?mibextid=WC7FNe

Paradise Country and Farmstay will reopen January 26

Absolutely, especially if the employees aren’t fond of working for the company in the first place, it comes across as lame and you become known as that person who was mentioned by the boss, which can suck I’ve worked for companies that have done this too and you can always tell the bosses are giving themselves a big pat on the back for doing something like that, but in reality it’s just shit because staff remember the times where they got so much more

Vintages Cars reopening has been pushed back a month

Just a side note, The Dreamworld Flyer when announced was supposed to open mid-2023, but at that time the fountains weren’t going to be a part of it. So with the addition of that, saw the delay to a late 2023 opening. But I think the opening timeframe was revised pretty quickly and they didn’t publicly over promise on their website or social media to say it’s definitely opening mid year and it didn’t.

How was the wait and loading procedures for Kaboom? When I first went on it not long after it opened, the wait time was insanely long and slow (despite the queue looking short) because the operators would be panicking/stressing about people getting into the tube because there’s no gate? They would raise their voices if you didn’t get in the tube exactly how they told you because you could easily slip/fall down that drop.

The GCB have written an article giving insight into the damage caused by the storm at Dreamworld. It shows why Tiger Island took much longer to reopen too. https://www.goldcoastbulletin.com.au/news/gold-coast/christmas-day-storm-inside-story-of-dreamworld-theme-parks-reopening-after-destructive-blast/news-story/6d38ab1782c9f7439b329a9c9a3279d4?fbclid=IwAR2DwyG5NPIwKd71XrQUJ_OprMw3nmIqWdAww2LKsEY8kHK7KzwaXyJnPik_aem_Afgs_BXD_Jx4YsJhQjALvY9eJkYsYPAxgmhT8QQTDgBJf5WXyjrYbfUwbr8kTySTU7g Also, DW are offering free weekday entry to RFS and SES volunteers

@New display name it gives me the impression they had too much extra Looney Tunes stock and they just decided to put it all in this store temporary until they change it over to hopefully a WoO store

The store does look very empty, but this large open space in the centre looks like the perfect spot a large model for an upcoming land could go 👀

Just looking at the concept artwork again, based off this surely the main entrance is going to be coming from Main Street. Why would they want guests to get that big first impression of the large facades when you enter from behind it. Walking down the alleyway and getting that grand entrance once you’re within the land I see as the best way to enter the land. The fact that they’ve the former AA buildings makes me think that it will still be the entrance for one of the coasters, if not both. Considering that’s they’re the main attraction for the land, surely you don’t want any you main entrance to be right next to the entry to the coasters. Otherwise they will have the same issue AA had, a massive courtyard that they’ve put money into to theme it, but no one actually uses it. Granted, AA was a high thrill coaster compared to what these coasters will be, so it will be a more popular area, but I don’t think it makes sense for them to keep that Superman connection open. Yes it’s another dead end of the park, but if they use both alleys (Main Street & Scooby) it will make for a much more immersive experience.

Probably because they’ve actually got Leviathan consistently operating this summer, even if it is just one train!

Topgolf will be closed until early February at the earliest

I would’ve much preferred that they went back to using this entrance and closing off the access from Superman entirely, just to spread the crowds out a little more rather than bottling them all up at the front. This entrance was so good and really built you up to the ride because you couldn’t see any of it. This as a grand entrance to Oz down the yellow brick road would be so good, rather than walking through the DC Universe to get there.

Even re-opening the former Arkham alleyway that connects to Scooby will help significantly

And for comparison, even Sea World’s reviews overall are better than Movie World’s And here are Dreamworld for comparison

That’s about average, this is what it was last year

The first attraction maintenance schedules have been published on the Dreamworld website. So far, nothing out of the ordinary.

Busy day at MW for its first day of operation in 2024. Superman and Rivals a 2.5-3 hour wait, WWF at 2 hours and everything else up to an hour.

All parks excluding SW are closed again today

Sea World was the only park that has remained open today, but Leviathan and Storm Coaster. And with Vortex still closed, that only left Trident and Jet Rescue as the main attractions. Trident has been over an hour and Jet Rescue ranging from 30-60 minutes.
