Dreamworld - 2017 Log Ride reopening
themeparkaddict replied to DaptoFunlandGuy's topic in Theme Park Discussion
They could always add an “EMERGENCY RELEASE” button from the inside. But then again, since when has the log ride ever needed to be evacuated? -

Theme Park Maintenance Schedules 2017
themeparkaddict replied to themagician's topic in Theme Park Discussion
Same here. When I went in Mid October, they removed everyone from the queue and the ride reopened approx 1.5 hours later. -
Why have you suddenly turned into the dude who does almost all of the Sea World updates, LOL. But anyway thanks for the update!

Can you imagine what the general public will think of this! Not only are you going to look and feel like a chook in a cage, but also the obvious one; how is this safe at all?! -

Tell the staff. Tell guest services or the operators. They probably haven't realized it. -
Rainbows End this morning. Ever since that Pirate Ship closed, this place has died. Challenge: Spot the person! Oh wait, there is none! (above) And YES, this was taken when the park was open. Around 11am.

JWorld has a really good rep here on Parkz, so I am not going to call BS. But it would be nice to know where the info came from. -
Theme Park Maintenance Schedules 2017

Craig LIED!! He said all big 9 will be ready BY christmas not AFTER christmas! Never trusting Craig again. All jokes aside, great to see log ride reopening. But sad to see almost another extra month of maintenance for Wipeout. Probably the first time I have seen a push forward though, with any Big9! Dreamworld recently confirmed they have had delays in getting parts from overseas for rides closed for maintenance. PS. Madagascar was scheduled for 6th December. How is a 2 day delay good news? Lol. And also, once again Dreamworld has done their famous "date change" for when rides actually got closed down on basically all of their currently closed rides. -

The fountain does not mean “you cant share your thoughts”. But either way that was a mistake and I am deeply sorry to cause any inconvenience. I will pass on your question to my management team for review. Kind regards Jake from Themeparkaddict.

Looks like something they pulled out from the bottom of the ocean. -
Can't agree more with this. And because many are now posting their ten cents worth, I will also do so. People are complaining about the quantity of rides being closed most likely because these are some of the most popular rides in the park and are their favorites. Although I have no statistical facts about what rides are the most popular, I know that a lot of small kids love the merry go round and many adults (especially the ones in my family) love wipeout and buzzsaw more than other rides. It also doesn't help that most of these closed rides are big thrill rides either (because then people start using the whole "1/3 of rides closed!!!" thing. Let's not forget that, as @themagician has said already, this is standard for any theme park and is not necessarily due to the accident at the park (although Log Ride is a different story). In June Movie World had Batwing, Superman, Green Lantern and Wild West Falls closed for quite a while which was shockingly bad. Remember that? Although we have our opinions on the state of the park, the state of the older attractions I will agree is quite poor. I however don't agree that we should exaggerate the situation that Dreamworld is in and how many rides are actually closed. Although they are taking a wee bit long to fix some of the closed rides, lets not forget that Dreamworld is still a completely enjoyable theme park with over 40 rides and attractions.

Definitely go to Dreamworld, you will have an awesome time and especially kids in that age group. I actually think Dreamworld will be more enjoyable for kids of that age especially with lots of family rides and wiggles world for small kids. Plus some really cool animals too. Whitewaterworld is incredibly good, you and your kids will have a great time there with Pipeline Plunge and Wiggle Bay. Give it a shot

Why is everyone suddenly in the gold coast?

Thats what it was like for me when I was there on a Wednesday a couple of weeks ago. It is silly really. People everywhere, although you want to know where you REALLY cannot move? The designated smoking area. It is always the most crammed.
