GCI did confirm at IAAPA that Wildcat would receive a full Titan Track retrack for the 2023 season. The one interview where they talked about it has been taken down but I don't believe that anything has changed since then.

The park still has a gross list of different rides they want and is also working on a new one for 2024 that they can't reveal yet.

Where did you hear this from? Just curious, is all.
Sure. Its from the local newspaper:
Sommerland snart klar med ny dino-satsning til 50 millioner: Du drejer rundt ovenpå en rutschebane
I øjeblikket er der ved at blive bygget en ny stor rutschebane i Djurs Sommerland, og den bliver den eneste af sin slags i Danmark.

So it seems Walibi Belgiums 2023 new family ride will get a wild west theme. And now we also know where this Side Car XL will be located in the park. The wild west area in the park was also rumored to become the new Worlds of Walibi in 2024: Adventure World.
The park has also opened a poll where you can vote for the name of the new ride: Silverton or Zephyr.

SeaWorld Orlando have removed the comfort collars from Ice Breaker:

The first changed train should be running from Saturday, and the train that is currently still running with comfort collars will soon have them removed.
I must admit that this has made me look forward to my potential first ride on Ice Breaker in June a bit more! I wonder if they will lower the height restriction again as a result of this change?
Coaster Hub on Instagram: "SeaWorld Orlando has removed the comfort collars for Icebreaker, their Premier Rides "family" launch coaster! This change was made on the one train that was away for annual maintenance, and is something that will not take

New logos for Universal's Orlando parks were shown off today. What's notable is that the "'s" has been dropped from the "Universal" part of IoA and Volcano Bay.

Big fan of the new look - it's cohesive and clean! Great move.
It is also worth noting that Universal Parks and Resorts arm has been rebranded to 'Universal Destination & Experiences' and has been placed within the same branding family. This is supposedly so the new immersive experiences that they're developing can fit into the same bracket.

Objection! Oppinions are different and all but those new logos are just plain ass. Why drop the 's so the grammar's incorrect? The image quality doesn't help either but imho their predecessors were so much more aesthetically pleasing.
I'm posting this here, as this has been tried many times before to no avail and doesn't deserve its own topic yet.
It looks like Six Flags New Orleans is back on track to get a new life after all these years. The city announced a building agreement between the New Orleans Redevelopment Authority (NORA) and Bayou Phoenix, with the city committing $1 million toward the building, maintaining, and securing the site. Bayou Phoenix was selected to redevelop the site after Drew Brees’ SHIELD 1 foundation backed out in October of 2021. Bayou Phoenix now enters an 18- to 24-month timeline to produce a master plan that will include an amusement park, water park, sports complex and hotel.

For brand consistency, they're definitely better. They're much more flexible for roundels, print, and much more. You may not like them as much, but they're fundamentally much more flexible than their predecessors. Give me a design like this any day to add to a poster design etc. rather than the other versions that are so busy they become difficult.

It’s like going on RCT and just extending your shuttle coaster after it crashes off the end.

I literally had the exact same thought, it's like this whole coaster was designed in RCT3 tbh.

MagicLand's new waterpark, MagicSplash, is set to open this year, with an entry price set at €14.90 and discounted tickets for visitors arriving after 2 P.M. The €15 million addition will include several slides, a 400-meter lazy river, a 2,000 square meter wave pool, and a 10,000 square meter beach area coated with 5,000 tons of white sand. The park will come with its own entrance and parking lot, but could also be accessed from MagicLand itself. The waterpark is the crown jewel of a multi-year expansion plan set in motion when MagicLand was purchased by the equity firm Pillarstone in 2019, and the company is apparently very pleased with the park's financial results over the previous year, promising it and the waterpark will lead to more expansions to come for the once struggling resort. No word on the coaster yet, but it's assumed to still be in the works.

Dynamic Attractions's parent company Dynamic Technologies has filed for corporate restructuring under the Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act (CCAA) in Canada, citing serious financial issues. The company apparently owes many millions to creditors it isn't able to pay back due to numerous stalled projects over recent years. Given that Disney and Universal are among their major clients, this could impact upcoming projects of theirs.
