Do you know if Rattlesnake is staying?

I believe the new coaster is still on the cards! I visited the park a few weeks back, and no progress, so definitely won't be 2025. Most likely 2026/27. It's planned to be located where the Flying Island ride is now and the surrounding land. Not sure if the Flying Island will be removed or...

Finally been sold!

Website says the ride will be 1.1m accompanied - I believe a Jet Star 2's minimum height is 1.2m?

Does anyone know what Oakwood is planning on the old mini golf site and will the Spooky 3D replacement be opening this season? Any ideas @nemesis_guy?

A kids log flume!

Lots of cryptic tweets! They're clearly somewhat in the know, having 'speculated' about Shipwreck Coast and the waterpark project months in advance. Glad to see a vampire retrack is on the cards and there's consistent significant investment lined up. ... you wait ages for one, then two or...

I have to say I disagree. The only benefit of that one is obviously the capacity, but other than that it would just be a lackluster version of Swarm down the road. At least Mandrill has the launch (which I've seen described by staff online as better than Icon's!), the added thrill of going...

I think Shanghai's Wing Coaster may have been cut unfortunately? This latest illustration of the park doesn't show it, and this link suggests they'll only be receiving the one coaster from B&M. With regards to the Wing Coaster's themes not being Mythica, I was going off this illustration of...

A closer look at the trains!

Major investment from the Brighton Pier Group for the 2023 season! 🙄 The 'new' Alice's cars is just props from their Christmas event plonked on the vintage car ride.

Fascinating insight here (albeit illegal?) of the abandoned Ultimate, Raptor Attack, Toad in the Hole and the Wave, uploaded just a few days back!

‘Lift hills and thrills’ has done a mock-up of how Nemesis could look with the new colours… Those supports look especially ace! Source

According to this article, Cliffhanger is going to be replaced by a 'large' Zamperla Discovery. So I guess we're looking at something akin to Cyclonator at Paultons Park... Very solid addition, but shame they've had to lose the coaster in the process.

Chessington Buzz have tweeted; They did a 'speculation' article on their website a few months back about the possibility of a waterpark coming to the resort so I'm inclined to believe this is what this'll be... Here's the article for anyone interested Link

So in the consultation they said it’ll have a 1.4m height requirement, however Legoland Germany’s new wing coaster has been been confirmed to be a 1.2m ride, so I see no reason as to why Chessington’s couldn’t be also?

The amount of theme park accidents in this country over the past few years has been absolutely staggering. I'm seriously starting to question how I can continue to reassure friends/family that rides are indeed fully safe... thoughts to all involved.

Interesting, do you happen to have any photos? Yeh I wouldn’t write it off quite yet, the rumour I heard was a 2024 relaunch.

Well not really… just one of the social media team replying to someone on Facebook… I am still under the impression they’re looking at bringing it back. Yes, time will tell!
