That means 6-10 weeks before testing starts? Having visited dreamworld last weekend. I struggle to see this being opened before February at the earliest. I hope I am wrong and they can pull some sort of miracle.

Despite the track not being fully completed. The footage shows track bits having been removed. Which would mean 0 testing is taking place.

I would IMHO still think WWW is fine for a bit longer, money is better spent on the main DW park than WWW with another major thrill ride hopefully moving forward.

Similar to the Jokers face with missing teeth...

Logan Steel installed the track, they didnt make it. All Mack rides track are made by hand in Germany. The track was half made already sitting in a field in China when Dreamworld brought it. From what I have been told.

See I went the AI route

Can we talk about how good this would be if they did actually build a Willy Wonka themed dark ride?

Found this on facebook thought I would share. _______ Warner Bros. Movie World Unveils "Wonka's Chocolate Factory Adventure" Dark Ride Warner Bros. Movie World is excited to announce the upcoming debut of "Wonka's Chocolate Factory Adventure," a world-class indoor river boat ride that will replace the Junior Driving School. Created by Intamin, world leaders in safety for water rides, this immersive experience will take guests on a magical journey through the enchanting world of Willy Wonka. Set to close in late 2024, the Junior Driving School will make way for the construction of "Wonka's Chocolate Factory Adventure," with work scheduled to begin in January 2025. The ride is expected to open in late 2025 and promises to be the most immersive and exciting ride ever built at Warner Bros. Movie World. "We are thrilled to partner with Intamin to bring 'Wonka's Chocolate Factory Adventure' to life," said Bikash Randhawa, Chief Operating Officer of Village Roadshow Theme Parks. "Intamin's reputation for safety and innovation makes them the perfect choice for creating this one-of-a-kind experience. Guests can expect to be completely immersed in the world of Willy Wonka, with surprises and delights around every corner. This will truly be the sweetest ride ever built!" In addition to "Wonka's Chocolate Factory Adventure," Warner Bros. Movie World is also preparing to unveil The Flash Speed Force coaster, The Wizard of Oz, and the refurbished Scooby-Doo Spooky Coaster in the coming years. These new attractions are part of the park's ongoing commitment to delivering world-class entertainment and immersive experiences. As part of the expansion plans, Warner Bros. Movie World will bid farewell to the Doomsday Destroyer ride, with details of its replacement to be announced in the near future. "Watch this space!" Stay tuned for more updates as Warner Bros. Movie World continues to bring the magic of the movies to life! Please note that this press statement is purely fictional and created for April Fools' Day.

So this means once school holidays are over nothing will be open past Gotham. Showcase gone, Doomsday closed, Scooby Closed, Dodgems Closed and Wild West Down.

The Cost to re build the Sky Voyager facade back to suit the area, while I believe is important to do at some stage, the capital can be better spent in the short term on more impactful projects that have better ROI. Such as a new ride. While impactful these works on Main street is more or less just repainting. The cost to rebuild the facades on Sky Voyager will be significantly higher.

Would a Mondial Avalanche be seen as too similar to the Claw and not worth while investment when there are so many other flat rides out there? I know its very different but with a park with a limited amount of flat rides be seen as too similar?

With Dreamworld opening dreamland and River town under construction, It couldn't hurt to start guessing what will come next when they come to invest in the next major CAPEX projects. Below is some ideas I had for what I think could help the parks lineup moving forward. Stage 2 River town: - 2025 MDMC rethemed with new spinning trains to make it more comfortable and to suit the theme of river town. The paddle Wheeler re opens (Super wishful thinking, with the park focusing on going back under that nostalgia route you never know) Then I believe a log flume or Chute the Chutes in the back half of Ocean Parade with a Mack Twist N Splash attraction to fix and bring life to the back half of ocean parade. (This would take up the old trolls and Flow rider land). The Mack Twist N Splash could even go in Wipeouts spot if required, if not needed a flat ride could go there in 2027. - 2026 Following this the park would need another major thrilling flat ride (Maybe a Mondial Ventura). Either in Wipeout's plot, Buzzsaw's plot, or even closer to the old log flume plot. -2027 Large thrilling roller coaster - 2028 Curious what people think or predict might come next?

So Ardent Leisure Group has rebranded to Coast Entertainment Holdings (CEH) See snippet from their ASX update to investors:

On the topic of a possible new flat ride, what flat ride would people like to see? I agree a S&S Scream n swing would be cool, but what other flat rides would people like to see?

For anyone looking this sign can be found in the pathway detour just behind tiger island.

I managed to find this image from the article on google as well. Seems like some update concept art.

While different being summer period and the parks open during the day? What about night market at WWW when Dreamworld has night events? Set up around the wave pool? Just a thought?

Its a requirement for the site to be clearly labeled as a construction site and for builders signage to be put up. Even Steel Tipain i had signage from Mack rides and the builders.

Just FYI, the $10-$15 million does not include the coaster's or theming. This is just the construction costs themselves.

I disagree, I see the fact they have gone the effort of building a proper construction wall rather than cheap nasty temp fencing. So while it will take a tad longer to finish the impression from a guest will be much better than temp fence with rent as fence logos on it. Re globe, its been put there for now, who knows if its just waiting to be moved elsewhere and just a temp spot.

That would mean construction on the new kids coaster will most likely start soon. Jags Journey said the Candy swing is now staying and the rock n tug ride will be moving into the land along with the ABC Ferris wheel. There's lots of space for the small rides. Room closer to Serpent Slayer and some close to the parents centre. I wonder if this means we could see the new Big Red plans ride open within a few weeks with the Candy flyer closing for maintenance in June. Question is what park might buy the Soaring Swing?

I am going to South Korea in 2 weeks time for a uni study trip and was wondering if anyone who had been before have tips on which park is the best to do. Due to it being a study trip we only have one spare day. So want to know what's the best to do for the rides?

My thoughts on a Replacement or a flat ride that would do really well at the park is a Gerlsaur Sky roller, In 20 years Rampage hasn't even hit 1 million rides. Its a very unpopular ride cos its just so intense. Something like a sky roller that can be intense or gentle will be perfect for thrill seekers and families in my Opinion. Curious to hear other people's thoughts?

From what I have heard its a clone of Volraee with 64 seats. So it'll be a big ride with big capacity and made by a good manufacturer.

Not gonna lie I personally don't see the hype in this IP, I have never seen the film and most people my age haven't either in my friendship circle. I recon a family land to willy Wonka would have been so much better. I suppose they have a giant show building (LTRR) that could always get a willy Wonka ride boat ride down the track when driving school goes.... In my opinion a Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory dark ride (boat or trackless) would be the world most iconic family ride!
