I was browsing the Walibi Belgium website and noticed something that I don't think has been mentioned yet. Apparently Walibi Belgium will be opening for Christmas this year.

Kongeparken, the oft-overlooked park in south-west Norway, is adding a Zamperla Disk-O this year:
It will get the name "Raset", which can translate into "The Rockslide". Kongeparken is usually excellent at themeing, so I'm looking forward to this one.

I used to visit this park multiple times a year during my childhood. Really loved it! Especially the fantastic bob run and chocolate factory. Really excited to see them invest again. Hopefully a new coaster will be next.

The new coaster would probably open in 2025. So I think more information about that coaster will probably appear this year

Looks like the thought-to-be-cancelled western retheme of MP-Xpress at Movie Park Germany is happening after all, as the coaster will be renamed Iron Claw for the 2023 season. Instead of being themed to the Lucky Luke franchise as originally planned, ”Iron Claw” will be linked thematically to the original branding MPG is developing across the park, first seen with Movie Park Studio Tour in 2021.

A park spokesperson in the same press release stated that the Lucky Luke branding wasn’t cancelled for budgetary reasons, but rather the park is seeking to incorporate original brands and work further with Paramount (owners of Nickelodeon and Star Trek) on future branding instead of seeking out individual brands such as Lucky Luke.

at 0:40 seconds it says Crush the Retro squad, could this be the beginning of the end of the retro squad?

Some slides for Aqualibi?
Good to see Aqualibi is getting the expansion they needed. It's an amazing waterpark (and the cleanest I have ever seen), but the slides were kind of blah.

Hearing from a lot of people that there's been a pretty serious fire at Fantasy Island Skegness? Apparently the park's been evacuated and the pyramid is releasing smoke right now.

Don’t expect Hullámvasút at Budapest Zoo to be brought back any time soon. The planned refurbishment that was meant to have begun all the way back when the coaster closed in 2015 is now officially cancelled, and the coaster will remain where it is due to its protected status. According to the zoo, it’s simply down to a lack of funds, although they still hope to be able to find some way to restore it in the future.

That's a shame. It really feels that they bit more than they could chew with the construction of that biodome on the grounds of the old amusement park. They never had the proper budget to see through their initial vision and Hullamvasut fell victim to being located in what's essentially still a construction zone with no direct access to the rest of the zoo. I don't think the operational status of the coaster would be a problem if it didn't stand in a fairly unattractive location between a highway and a stalled construction zone. Say if there was a public park on one side of it, I'm sure the city would find it interesting to run as a standalone ride.

Walibi Belgium has shared an image of what they intend their new winter event to look like:
The park also has plans to be open for the February break next year as part of the move to become more of a year-round destination. Activities for the Christmas and February events will be announced at a later date.
