    Universal Horror Unleased - Year round haunt for Vegas

    I wonder if Universal are planning to do something similar in the UK in the coming years, prior to the opening of the park? Could bring more eyes to it in advance of opening..

    Legoland China | Shanghai | Theme Park

    Looks slow, B&M rattle, etc. But seriously, I like the look of it. The tunnel is a fun touch with the lighting too.

    Can a theme park ever be too quiet?

    I feel like there is a cut of point where a park being too quiet can dramatically impact your enjoyment of a park. I visual it something like this... This is knocked up very roughly, and is definitely dramatised. But I think it gets my point across visually. I'll expand and explain though...

    Small News From The Theme Park Industry

    Small News From The Theme Park Industry

    This feels...odd to me. Like I understand why they've been rebranding the other parks to Plopsaland *place*. But De Panne already fit in with that. I wonder if they're trying to really push the brand out and make themselves akin to the Walibi brand a bit more, hence the want for the country in...

    Oakwood closes its doors, cites financial difficulties

    Their whole plan is nonsensical, idealistic and wreaks of an enthusiast's wet dream. They have built up a 5 year plan, and they make a particular point to say they have built it with enthusiast input (as well as industry professionals). But to directly say it has enthusiast input is just a bit...

    Are theme park enthusiasts too picky?

    Yes. But that's the same for so many hobbies I think, especially ones which have a huge layer of subjective opinion about them. I'll give an anecdotal example. In recent months, I've slightly gotten back into watching wrestling (WWE). I watched it as a kid, and since it was added to Netflix...

    New attractions at Paultons Park

    Though they didn't totally commit, I'd say they made it quite clear that their intention was to organise another one next year.
