The Princess and the Frog re-theme of Splash Mountain is set to be called Tiana’s Bayou Adventure and will be opening at both U.S Disney parks in late 2024. Still no exact date set on when the original version closes, however...

Toverland has officially applied for a permit to open a permanent camping resort by 2024. It is set to replace the temporary accomodations that were erected in the summer of 2020. Insiders report it’ll have a Greek theme to match the nearby Ithaka area...

Only time I recall this happening (save for coasters with tiny cars like your average Wild Mouse or Gerstlauer Bobsled) was when I was the only person in the boat on Atlantica Supersplash. It was 10 in the morning in early June and the back end of Europa-Park was virtually dead save for a few...

The companies that lease aircraft have a financial incentive for the airline company to continue operating their aircraft, though. If the airline can't pay what they owe them, they'll just lend the plane over to someone else. The company CF has sold Great America to is in the business of...

Are we sure those are coaster supports? Look more like steel beams for building construction to me.

150. Karibik-Coaster (Travelling SBF Visa Spinning Coaster) My 150th credit, yay…? Wasn’t really planning on going on this one at first but I was spending the night in Lubeck after a day at Hansa-Park and I had three euros to waste so I figured why not claim an extra credit before moving on to...

See, that honestly perplexes me since both Highlander and the one at Nigloland have their height minimums set at 1.4m. Tibidabo must’ve managed to wrestle a lower requirement out of Funtime in order for them to secure the contract.

Tallest: Tower of Terror II (115m) Drop height: Red Force (112m) Fastest: Red Force (180km/h) Longest: Silver Star (1620m) Steepest: Fluch von Novgorod/Rage/Typhoon (97 degrees) Most inversions: Dragon Khan (8) Oldest: Rutschebanen (1914) Youngest: Ride to Happiness (opened July 1, 2021)

1. Bro, chill. There’s no need to get up in arms. 2. Didn’t expect to be accused of being a corporate rat today, but alright. If I was a corporate rat, would I say that PA is badly run and Ferrari Land is so garbage as a separate gate that it makes Walt Disney Studios look like Tokyo DisneySea...

Well… Europe isn’t exactly short on parks other than PA, lol. It could’ve been bought for some obscure place in the Balkans for all we know.

Pretty sure they said there was only one other installation of the coaster model in the entire world, so a Free Spin wouldn’t add up given how many there already are in the U.S and Asia. My money’s still on the Hot Racer.

The ”Coming 2023” sign isn’t there, just the wooden fence is. Not sure why they removed it — Either the sign itself was a photoshop or the 2023 announcement was made prematurely. Guess we’ll find out soon.

If nothing else, it’s at least good to see the coaster finally find a home after ten long years, even if the name and color choices are all rather bleh. That logo is its own level of garbagio though.

Heide-Park seems to be a huge mess right now. Multiple rides are closed constantly (Big Loop and Scream have been down for weeks), and given that the ride line-up has shrunk in the past few years (the Mayan flat area just looks sad now) it’s concerning to see that they’re apparently struggling...

According to everyone’s favourite Dutch website, this is purportedly what Danse Macabre will look like:
