The seating area has been added to the park map and the trolls village is now just shown with a fence around it -

When the park last had there night time summer event, they offered the after 4pm ticket, which was a great deal, and myself, along with family and friends all took advantage of it. We spent a couple hours at WWW until it closed, went had dinner in DW, then did a few rides and then watched the show. It was a fantastic night and the park still kept a good crowd without it being crazy -

With the wiggles at the park today it’s going to be a very busy day, if anyone is there and passes throughout Ocean Parade, it would be good to hear how much the seating space is utilised -
The New Atlantis - Construction Updates
themagician replied to themagician's topic in Theme Park Discussion
Nearmap update from Dec 2 Plenty of ground works happening And you can see the work that’s been happening on the SV site and the grey roof near the monorail track is the structure I took photos of the other week -
Nearmap has been updated at the start of this month and there’s no new waterfall, it’s still the same steel structure that’s been there for a couple years now

You would think they would extend hours until the 12th because that’s when the Fun House show runs until -
In the queue of the justice league there is a sign that says no food or drinks are allowed inside, so instead everyone piles up there rubbish before entering the queue

Today I visited the park with family from overseas and it was the first time in a few years I’ve actually spent the entire day at the park and just enjoyed the rides and what they have to offer. Today was a very hot day, but I must say that MW is not a good park to visit during a hot summers day. We went on every open ride and the only comfortable one to queue in was Justice League. As we know, Superman is horrible with the lack of aircon until you reach the very front. When you queue for an hour with that many people, it’s a sweat fest. WWF doesn’t have any fans until you’re at the very front too. It is quite an open queue building, but on days when there’s no breeze, it isn’t comfortable. Rivals has fans with misters, but they don’t actually work overly well. GL, unless you’re under the shade sail, you sweat and burn. Even the kids area doesn’t have fans. This isn’t just me starting a topic to complain, but rather identifying quite a big issue which I’ve never noticed before (because I don’t go on the rides enough and generally I don’t visit during the summer because of the large crowds). So basically, I definitely think the park should be investing into fans to help keep these queue areas much cooler during these crazy hot days. On another notes, more rubbish bins in queues would be good to see (especially in WWF, because plenty of people decided to dump the rubbish on the timber walls and railings throughout the extended queue area

DW and WWW will have extended trading from 9:30-5 between 27/12 and 31/12. I definitely think they should have extended until 6 (maybe even 7) and at least until the second week of Jan. Extending for an extra 30 minutes for 4 days doesn’t really seem worth it -

Was it posted or written somewhere or is that what you heard? -
@AlexB this is for you, just in case you didn’t want to head to the website

The park updated the rides website a couple months ago and is expected to be open late Summer, possibly towards Easter (depending on whether there are more delays or not) We think the ride was delayed to do the original contractors pulling out of the job and it took some time to find a new one

VRTP didn’t do it this year

If you lay on the burning ground at a specific angle and at a specific time... heaps of shade -

@Rivals yep, that area is way to small for that kind of attraction -

Even if it isn’t popular for sitting, it will be very popular on Instagram and maybe that’s exactly what they were going for. There aren’t really many ‘insta walls/areas’ at any of our parks, so this area fills that ‘massive’ void. -

For what that space is, they’ve themed/decorated it very nicely and I would say it will be quite a nice area to sit on a cooler or cloudy day. I definitely think it could use more larger shaded areas because on a hot summers day, people won’t sit in half those seats. Once those trees grow out a bit it should be a lot better, but that will take a while. Hopefully they also add some misters/fans in too EDIT: Turns out there is quite a bit of shade, it just hasn’t been shown in these photos. Photo posted by Remember the Golden Years -

I wouldn’t be surprised if they announce a date or just open by the end of the week -

Some shots form this morning. You can see an organ fence has been installed along the path leading towards the tower. @AlexB no sign of line markings on the stairs and I couldn’t see a queue area at the bottom either
