It's not really a Six Flags monopoly. With Six Flags trying to get Cedar Fair to purchase their parks for years (if not decades) and since the new headquarters will be near Carowinds with "significant finance and administrative operations in Sandusky, Ohio", I assume Cedar Fair will be running...

Hopefully good news as far as Carowinds is concerned. If any Cedar Fair park needs help, it's Carowinds. Having the new company headquarters nearby could go a long way to the park actually living up to its potential. It definitely can't remain the drab experience it's been for decades.

My first double post after 15 years. ;) Because of construction associated with a multi-million-dollar expansion, Morgan’s Wonderland amusement park will be unable to hold its “A Wonderland Christmas” this year. However, SeaWorld San Antonio has stepped up to the plate (baseball analogy) by...

No, that avatar's not me.

Here are what some of the vendors not on the list I posted above have shared so far about what's new that they will be featuring on show floor later this month: LAI Games - Three new games to be featured include: Air Strike, where players test their flying skills as they take to the skies to...

It appears that the man hiked up the gravel road (that delivery drivers use to get to the park) during the night and committed suicide in one of the public toilets. Authorities suspect that he had planned an attack on park employees and guests that would arrive in the morning, but then took his...

The Vinita city council voted 7-1 to approve plans to build both the theme park and the RV park and campground. A groundbreaking ceremony will take place Oct. 30 for the first phase of the project, which involves the construction of the Three Ponies RV Park and Campground.

It won't have spinning cars, but rather cars that rotate up to 360° at certain parts of the layout to reduce noise for nearby residents. According to the NBCUniversal Community website, being able to rotate the cars "provides the ability to turn and program vehicles away from the community at...

A fist fight between two families broke out in front of Disneyland's Storybook Land Canal Boats. Here's the story and video at WDW News Today 😂

https://vimeo.com/804322453 Gotta admit that I kinda like the dueling kiddie coaster concepts and a spinning family boomerang (no videos yet) could be Vistacoaster's next big thing. I imagine we'll be seeing the Lil' Dipper Mega Kids Coaster on the IAAPA show floor next month. :(

Talking about bland and generic. The new one doesn't seem any better.

Staff on holidays?

Here's the official press release: Park CEO Henrik B. Nielsen points to the spot where the drop tower will be built.
