Reo is down for the slab and a heap of pipe works have been installed

One column has been installed

It’s all cleared up now and they’ve been working on the walls and roofs of the first aid building now that it’s not hidden behind other structures

More parts have arrived. There is so much of it, it seems that nearly all of it could be here now

Track painting is almost complete A close up look at the Big Red Planes And green battens are replaced the Far Far Away facade And they continue towards Belinda’s Tree House

The ride is definitely open today

Big Red Planes officially opens today

Signage has been added to the fencing at SW now! (Credit: Theme Park Ogre)

Thanks @DaptoFunlandGuy for the image and areas. I’ve circled the areas that I think are most plausible for the rides to go. Area A is the most likely as this area has been fenced off and there have been works happening in this area for a few months now. Option B could be a good area depending on how the coaster is placed. It could be good for the Ferris wheel and a small queue setup (like what there is now). Option C could be a nice spot if they plan to remove the fountains and hide the former TOT store, but it could be too close to what’s becoming Ocean Parade.

They might still be as I’ve only heard a rumour it might be going. If it does staying, where could it be going if they’re also keeping the Candy flyer and relocating the Ferris wheel

The Candy Flyer originally didn’t have any maintenance scheduled for the year as I believe it was originally slated to be removed. But a few months ago maintenance was scheduled in and it is currently closed for a couple weeks. So I think they changed their minds to keep the ride count up. I’ve heard a rumour that the Big Red Boat from Wiggles World is also going to be relocated and rethemed.

I hope so too, but it seems like there is quite a bit of work to do. I don’t know the full extent of the works required, but if the piling has to continue the whole way, they aren’t even half done. At least Dreamworld got there’s sorted before the school holidays!

Nice find @Ogre For comparison in length, SpongeBob’s coaster at SW is 80m

Like this, but very faded

Ray Reef has finally got a new sign

Major works are happening on the Sandy Shores Lagoon at Sea World. The pathway is closed, the fencing has been removed, the walkways for staff have been removed and a lot of digging along the shore is happening. And the Dolphins meeting area is fenced off too.

Here’s a look at the Battle Boats while the water has been drained

Idea for you Dreamworld, why not show off all the stuff coming to the parks over the next few years and even tease (even if it’s super vague), what’s to come after 2024s works.

Marvin the Martian has proved that you don’t need a lot of space to put a decent kids ride in, so hopefully one day we see a new attraction here. However, they are restricted by the emergency exit doors for HSD that are to the left of Tweety Cages

I didn’t even notice that had been removed! It was only removed during this maintenance period.

I don’t think they’ve been there for years

Refurb has begun on the facade

Casino is still behind walls, but Ivy and Croc are back. New signage has been added at WWF And a new access/evacuation path has been built at the start of the final section of the splashdown zone (bit hard to see, but it’s in the left of the image)
