New DW Local Annual Passes

[Park Addict 93]

Previous pass option is still $119 essentially at the top end however no longer includes digital ride and character photos.

I like the tiers and think it’s a step in the right direction. Although with such minimal price difference at the moment it feels as though they only exist to emphasise the value of the $119 option.

I though they merged Dreamworld and White Water World into a single park but now it looks like they are demerging them by requiring guests to have a top tier pass to enter.

interstate visitors prices for passes are a extra $60 so it’s $179 for the 12 months

This $100 pass is also coming out just when the QLD government is handing out $100 gold coast vouchers...

Nothing to say they can be used on annual passes, and I doubt it can.

it can also only be used to the value of 50% of the standard cost of an activity/accommodation etc

Covers half the price of a AP and then you can take the other $50 left and buy a burger in the park

It can't.

The Queensland.com front page for the voucher promotion includes imagery of Superman Escape. Pretty misleading since none of the parks are 'participating operators' (though you can book Sea World Helicopters or Cruises, as well as Paradise Country FarmStay).

Nevertheless, the new pricing is still at an opportune time when the gold coast is about to see an influx of local visitors (you must be a queensland resident to win a voucher) who may not otherwise have chosen to visit at this time. Offering a cheaper option than your competitors at that time is still a clever way of driving gate.

I also appreciate Dreamworld offering a 'bare bones' pass without extras - although they would have done well to offer WWW as an 'add-on' without all the other stuff - there are folks out there who will get the top pass just to have WWW included, unnecessarily giving away free tickets to the night events they probably didn't want but will still use because they're included.

This happened awhile ago, they also currently are running a promotion for 12 months of park access +www/sp (but not the events and in park discounts) for $119.

Remains to be seen, the previous COVID Destination GC promotion could meaning many got annual passes for $49.

As others have mentioned though the vouchers cover a 50% spend up to $100. So on a $100 pass the vouchers will cover $50.

It can’t.

I doubt the list is finalised, I participated in the Brisbane Holiday Dollars and what I redeemed the voucher on wasn’t listed on day 1.

Just FYI it looks like the GC Dollars voucher can be used on DW passes, but not on VRTP Passes.

[Im Hungry]

Are you on about this?

[Naazon]

Yes, should clarify I meant not able to be used on VTRP One Pass.

[Park Addict 93]

Dreamworld's link is only for one day passes too

VRTP have a workaround however...

Pretty sure Dreamworld offer that opportunity in-park as well, although I don't think its widely advertised.

[Park Addict 93]

Thought it would be worth mentioning/discussing the current renewal offer.

Insanely good deal, $89 for the Locals pass (normally $119) and a $20 F/B voucher and Single Use Ride Express.

Looks like they really don't want to lose any passholders at present.

I remember a time a few years ago when they offered $59 renewals. 

They had more rides back then too.

Yea,  but those ride were old and rundown and most of them were closed more than open.

[Brad2912]

That is a good deal. I renewed 10 weeks ago and all we got was $99 deal
