Seems like someone watches the news too much and believes everything they say!

Big Brother has been confirmed to be back on Channel 10 later this year, but so far there hasn’t been any mention of DW in the announcements.

For the first time in as long as I can remember, Sea World won’t be opening this ANZAC Day.

The ride stopped on the lift hill again the day after this happened, but it was prior to park opening. The rides now listed as closed for maintenance on the website

I thought this person that you are ‘hinting’ at had been with the company for over 30 years… not 15-20 years that the article suggests?

It’s great to see, but usually when the park is that busy they’ll open up the gate to access the parking area near the former blue lagoon/big brother house. There’s no real space to expand the existing car park, particularly with the areas master plan (which will actually take some spaces).

I just checked the dates, and it closed Jan 27 to Feb 12

The ride was under maintenance for a couple of weeks before the school holidays

Scooby’s first maintenance post refurb has been scheduled

For context, I did renew my pass a couple weeks ago and so maybe this email is a new standard email pass holders get when they sign up or renew. And so it’s likely this automated email hasn’t been updated yet (not that it’s an excuse, just an explanation).

@Brad2912 it was certainly presented a lot nicer than me just copying and pasting the text, was just easier to capture it all that way. It did also contain this content too

Recently received an email from Dreamworld that was all about the parks focus on safety and the processes they go through each day. Feels like it was an email out of no where sent to subscribers, unless there’s been recent comments or backlash (for whatever reason) online. The email states: Dreamworld is all about high-speed thrills and adrenaline-pumping rides, but safety always comes first. Every time you strap in for a high-velocity launch or gut-dropping freefall, you can trust that our rides are tested, maintained, and operated to the highest standards. Whether you're here to conquer Steel Taipan, drop 39 storeys on The Giant Drop, or swing sky-high on The Gold Coaster, we've got everything in place to keep the excitement going safely. How we keep Dreamworld's thrills safe Pre-opening ride testing - before the park opens each day, our team runs extensive safety checks to ensure every ride is good to go. Ongoing maintenance program - our rides are routinely inspected and serviced following strict Australian safety regulations Advanced safety systems — all rides feature controlled-stop sensors that automatically pause the ride if needed for guest safety. Trained ride operators — our operators follow rigorous safety procedures. ensuring every launch, drop, and twist is as safe as it is thrilling.

So is Sea World and Paradise Country

A decision is set to be made by Council in May

I think it was in one of the emails or media releases as I posted this shortly after the announcement

If this is the case, I’d imagine it will be announced during their end of financial presentation, which is on 23 August 2026

Which will be annoying if that’s the case because they made a big deal about Motocoaster ‘permanently’ closing

DW just posted a video advertising $99 annual passes, but interestingly there is this on the computer screen Refurb of Motocoaster confirmed or are DW just trolling

assuming they’re still the same price?

Probably in response to VRTP adding perks to their passes, DW have responded by adding even more perks to their annual passes for the rest of this month.

I'm sure you know this, but these slides only give the illusion their looping by adding the extra fibreglass, but the slide experience offers similar sensations to a tornado or gravity wave, but are a body slide. Why would that impact insurances? One has just been installed in Perth and while they look impressive, it's just another gimmick

That's because it's an underground carpark! A render shows the ramp going down.

This is great news and I hope it really does get built because proposed water parks in Queensland have a history of not going ahead

This offer has just been added too
