2013 Neuheit: Air Race (Zamperla) @ Dreamworld - Australien

[Mario M.]

Auch der 3. australische Großpark wird 2013 mit einer neuen Attraktion an den Start gehen!

Die Baufläche wird bereits geräumt, man kann denke ich von einer größeren Neuheit ausgehen

Vorher:

​

Nachher:

​

Erste Gerüchte gibt es auch schon:

Dreamworld is said to have removed their Avalanche ride (Bertazzon Matterhorn) to make way for a new ride in the Kung Fu Panda area of the Dreamworks Experience. Rumor says it may be a Gerstlauer Sky Fly attraction

Dazu noch folgender Artikel (Geld dürften sie also haben):

"THE Federal Government has given Dreamworld $1.1 million to boost indigenous tourism through an Aboriginal culture and Australian wildlife showcase.

The Coomera theme park is one of four Australian tourist attractions to receive the Strategic Tourism Investment Grant.

The grant was matched by parent company Ardent Leisure and the $2.2 million will be used to convert the park's wildlife experience into an Australian Aboriginal wildlife experience.

The transformation has been planned for more than two years and the first stage should be complete late next year.

Tourism Minister Martin Ferguson expects the drawcard to lure more tourists to the city and Dreamworld hopes its visitors will enjoy the Coast's indigenous community.

Mr Ferguson said the Gold Coast's indigenous attractions already brought in more than $1 billion every year -- a figure he hoped would grow with the installation of Dreamworld's new project.

"It is clear from our work internationally and domestically that people want to be exposed to and experience indigenous tourism," he said.

"More Australians want to see indigenous experience and see the indigenous employed."

Dreamworld owners have worked closely with the Yugambeh people and inbound tourism operators, particularly from Asia, to ensure the new attraction meets visitor expectations.

The transformation comes after two years of Dreamworld senior staff working with local indigenous people to forge a strong relationship.

In 2011 Dreamworld became the first leisure-based tourist attraction to launch a Reconciliation Action Plan." (gold coast news)

NEW RIDES! NEW LANDS! WHOLE NEW ATTRACTIONS!

Summer never looked so jam packed with fun!

Dreamworld Happiness is just a World Pass away with two amazing new rides, a whole new land from DreamWorks Animation SKG Inc. (Nasdaq: DWA), three brand new attractions, all adding up to a summer bursting to the brim.
The third land in Dreamworld’s DreamWorks Experience, Kung Fu Panda: Land of Awesomeness is a little taste of China that will transport you to another world. Be sure to brush up on your kung fu skills when you arrive, for you wouldn’t want to encounter a cloaked panda unprepared.
Kung Fu Panda: Land of Awesomeness will open this summer with a new Big 8 Thrill Ride that is sure to invoke pure ‘pandamonium’. Unlike anything you’ve seen before, you will need to decide just how crazy you are feeling before you jump in line for this ride.
Wiggles fans types need not feel left out, for the call of the pirate life beckons from the depths of Wiggles World. With a sprightly new feather in his hat, Captain Feathersword is building a brand new boating adventure and is looking for some first mates. Keep your ear to the ground, because Dorothy the Dinosaur told Wags the Dog who mentioned to Fairy Clare who whispered to Henry the Octopus that Captain Feathersword may have invited some very special guests to come and play in January!
Big Brother fans have watched the show, and this summer will be able to experience the house. Guests will make their way down to the Big Brother compound to see firsthand the very places their favourite housemates gathered for challenges, gossiped with their frenemies, and ‘nom-nom’d’ in the Diary Room Chair.
Gold Coast holiday makers can jump online and save time and money at www.dreamworld.com.au for the best value theme park tickets. The 21 Day Holiday World Pass is just $79.99 for kids and $99.99 for adults when you buy online and gives the holder three weeks unlimited entry to Dreamworld and WhiteWater World.

Das Fundament fürs "Air Race" ist schon fertig:

Kaum hat die Montage begonnen steht die Attraktion auch schon fast komplett! Die Thematisierung sieht wirklich gut aus

This land will be home to Big 8 Thrill Ride, Pandamonium, the new Skadoosh bumper car ride and the Kung Fu Academy, specially designed for junior masters in training.When you arrive at Pandamonium, be sure to choose your queue line carefully because this swinging rickshaw ride is an adventure with a serious split personality.

New thrill ride to open at Dreamworld

DREAMWORLD will launch a new big thrill ride and a Kung Fu Panda-themed land before Christmas in the latest battle between the Gold Coast's five theme parks.
The Coomera-based theme park will open its third DreamWorks Animation precinct -- Kung Fu Panda: Land of Awesomeness -- featuring the latest thrill ride Pandamonium along with a new Big Red Boat ride in Wiggle's World.
It will cap off a massive 18 months of multimillion-dollar investment by park owner Ardent Leisure, which has stepped up the competition against Village Roadshow -- the owner of Movie World, Sea World and Wet 'n' Wild.
Dreamworld marketing and sales general manager Kathryn Valk said the 31-year-old theme park had undergone a major facelift in the past year and a half which included opening three huge rides, revitalising the main street, adding new shows, becoming home to the Big Brother house again and partnering with DreamWorks Animation to build three film-inspired lands.
"We are proud of our heritage, we are part of Australia's DNA as the country's biggest theme park," she said.
"But we are always looking for something new and to embrace everything that is really unique to Dreamworld.
"We have a focus to keep revitalising and refreshing to remain relevant."
The Kung Fu Panda land will join the already opened Madagascar Madness and Shreks Faire Faire Away lands in the new DreamWorks Experience precinct.
The new land will be themed around an ancient Chinese village and will be home to the Skadoosh bumper cars, Kung Fu Academy and the brand new Pandamonium thrill ride.
The new ride offers two speeds, allowing those after a calmer ride to be spun around and swung side to side in a Rickshaw car.

Thrillseekers who queue in the other line will be strapped in for a crazy 2.5-minute cycle that sends them soaring 8m high, round and round, side to side and upside down at up to 3.8 G-forces.
"Who doesn't love a new thrill ride?" said Ms Valk.
"We are the home of thrill rides and this is quite a unique ride -- there isn't one of this kind in Australia."
She said the new lands had refreshed the park.
"It has given us the lift we needed," said Ms Valk.
"It is all about entertainment, escapism and magic and to remain true to the films we need to ensure guests are fully immersed in the lands.
"I think Kung Fu Panda land is going to be my favourite -- it is truly spectacular."
The new land and ride will open on December 21.
