Defibrillator's are now in operation

Possibly where the ampitheatre will go?

 

[dylan_oregan]

now that is definitely in the shape of an ampitheatre but what on earth will they use it for?

Perhaps for performances?

^But isn’t that what the Dreamworld Stage for the old Big Brother shows are for? 

But what makes me question all about this is why build a new one if they got one it’s sitting there at the moment which I’m pretty sure is still in good condition? And out of all of the locations, why there? with TOT going off very so often (when it actually operates) it’s going to be pain having a show on when the ride is going off if the building isn’t enclosed that is

Maybe when the ampitheatre opens Tower Of Terror will be getting pulled down 🤣😂

[Santa07]

What a waste of good rollercoaster/dark ride space 😢

Part of the train shed has been domolished. Also “Dreamworld Carpark 2” (behind big brother) has had orange flags with starpickets put in to create rows of parking. Probaly 10/12 rows. Bright orange flags go from the general carpark, through the side of the park around amphitheatre to the 2nd carpark. They have gone to great extent to re do the carpark for something?

Jetpack Events?

[Thrill Seeker]

Why would you park in the very back carpark for a jet pack event? Carpark 2 is next to big brother house @-nick.white.1543

Maybe they have just set it up as overflow for the summer crowds.

I meant as well as the main car park and as summer overflow, as @Mc coaster said. I apologise if I wasn't clear enough.

All good @-nick.white.1543. No need to apologise.

Ohh and Merry Christmas everyone.

Word on the street is that both Buzzsaw and Escape from Madagascar are both open now, leaving Hot Wheels and half of Wipeout as the two last closed attractions. 

[Thrill Seeker]

Buzzsaw opens today and EFM opened on Monday morning.

Does this make it the most attractions the park have had open since October 2016

I think February this year after Rocky Hollow Log Ride reopened everything actually may briefly have been open at once before Buzzsaw closed in March?

That new corroboree show is open today. Just some dance indigenous thing. Who cares. Also there was a almost like carnivalle show if you can call it that. Basically just two people doing circus tricks.

You need to remember Dreamworld also attracts a lot of international guests that would find this type of thing interesting. 

If i were at a local park in let’s say Japan i would love to learn more about their culture history through show and dance.

Still good to see dreamworld are adding/changing shows

A lot of folks who don't make culturally insensitive remarks like yours would, actually.

Dreamworld adding more shows is good for more entertainment, only thing that is missing will we ever see a coaster similar to DC Rivals?

With all signs pointing to Dreamworld being downsized, or, at the very least, having a large parcel of the excess northern land sold, it severely reduces their ability to compete with a similar product, which is what they desperately need after Sky Voyager. As it stands, every reputable theme park on the planet is spending big, big money on large coasters - they should follow the trend, especially given they really haven't ever had a quality continuous circuit coaster that enthusiasts would rate.

I'm not sure the current owners will invest that kind of money, however they spent the extra money on Sky Voyager to completely gut the facades and make the ride bigger, so who knows. A more likely option to happen with the current owners is probably retrofitting or refurbishing an existing ride to make it more thrilling.

Not sure if this has been mentioned but Dreamworlds opening hours are 9-6 until the 13th of January. 

[dylan_oregan]

They really need to remove Hot Wheels Side Winder. It is old, rusty, faded and rough. Maintainance keeps getting pushed back just get rid of it and build a modern coaster. Not hard I'm sure they have the money for it after sky Voyager.
