Australia's biggest party

[Ashley Jeffery]

[Tricoart]

There’s no way that is the Rivertown opening date, that’s under a month away & they’ve only just moved JR’s train into the station, with the building & surrounding area still very much incomplete. My guess is that it’s some one-off event like their wrestling matches or the Casey Barnes thing they just had. Which is to say, nothing all that special.

With the night markets now closed due to Halloween nights until Nov 1 - my guess is this is just a big relaunch celebration

there's a Diwali event November 2 this year at DW, I don't think the markets normally run during it so it would be weird for them to reopen with a big celebration on the 1st only to be closed the next night

[Brad2912]

The markets definitely won’t run on Diwali night as the whole park is essentially privately booked, however they also won’t be having “Australia’s biggest party” during the day on a work/school day” so providing there is any accuracy on the date by Nov 1, it can only be a tie in with the markets

Knowing TPSN it's probably another fountain.

[Brad2912]

Markets have announced they are not back until the 8th Nov

Apparently it’s whatever the hell this is…

I’d link the video itself, but it has nothing to do with Dreamworld and is just some random dj/club scenes. I feel like they’re making something up, but if it is indeed something, it’s a third-party adults event.

Oh I see…

Given the caption is “bigger and better”, it must be referring to a previous event run, meaning it’s someone private/external to DW just hiring the joint again.

An 18+ event goes against DW(Greg)’s focus for the park and even if they were running it we would’ve seen SOME marketing comms about it with less than 3 weeks to go

• The only source of information so far is from TPSN.
• TPSN's track record is patchy at best - (the very reason we used to have the fountain of improbability)
• Claims it's going to be "over 18"
• Event date is apparently November 1
• There is only two weeks until the event
• The park haven't announced anything, let alone commenced selling tickets.

Good thing is that it means literally nothing whether it’s true or it’s not, so there’s no point in discussing further either way. They likely only made the first post to mislead those less in-the-know into thinking it would be an event related to Rivertown, not a one night club that’s already significantly less newsworthy than the Diwali event the next day.

One of my fave past times of being a MW ride op back in the days was telling the people who ran this page (and many of the other non reputable ones) total BS... and then watching them report it as fact by "someone in the know"

In fact, a lot of the operators and even supervisors did it and probably still do to this day. Did you know in 2012 that Dreamworld was planning on building Thunderbolt 2.0? And that they were putting the wheel of the Reef Diver onto the arm of the claw to create a brand new thrill ride?

Holy fuck I remember that debacle. that was an unmitigated disaster. TBH I feel like that, and the management of capacity in their first year was the death knell for WNWS. 

Palace has managed to revive the park somewhat, but it doomed village from the outset.

I recognise one of the guys from the video, Troy Candy. Looks like a few of the clips are from this party. This has gotta be fake then, surely Dreamworld aren't going to allow something like that right? It's the complete opposite of the family friendly vibe Greg seems to want to push

I mean the Gel Blasters and LMCT+ Event don't seem family focused, maybe they are only wanting to push that for the general public as apposed to private events?

6pm to Midnight! Impressive. Have noise restrictions recently changed for DW because they used to only be able to operate rides until 10pm?

This actually seems pretty cool

@themagician

2 answers to your question.  (that way I can't be wrong)

1. Rides close at 10pm & event continuous to 12am.

or

2. The people running the event have applied for a temporary relaxation to the rules.

 

 

 

When the hotel across the road was approved, a time curfew for events was written into the approval.  The hotel has a time curfew for events but the hotel is allowed to exceed that curfew a certain number of times a year.
