.And then there were the Icon foundations!

Don't get me started about those

 

[Matt N]

What happened with Icon’s foundations?

What happened with Icon’s foundations?

Some of them were originally put in the wrong place.

Some of them were originally put in the wrong place.

Oh dear… I bet that delayed proceedings!

 

[venny]

Yes, but that was the subcontracted groundworker’s fault I believe. The same company who i understand are now insolvent.

 

[rob666]

Subcontractors need managing within a project.
Still give clues to a lack of overall management supervision in the park.
It is not as if a single foundation was out of position.

So this loss making show is already on sale a year early? Are they hoping to actually but bums on seats this time or are they just trying to make it look like an exclusive show that always sells out a year early? What a waste of time, resources and money this is (I feel like @rob666 )

 

[John_P]

There's probably licensing costs involved but seeing as the park has a Nickelodeon Land surely a Nickelodeon character themed ice skating show would seem like a more obvious show, especially for a matinee show, than what's currently on offer.

 

[shakey]

So the show is called Love, Love, Love.

Even the name is enough to put half of potential punters off.

Or maybe it's a sex show ?

H*t I*e show announced 11 months in advance yet still no opening date for Valhalla

 

[rob666]

Park guaranteed another massive loss next year on a show that regularly has an "arena" audience of about ten percent.
No wonder they only scrape a new coaster together every decade!

 

[Enter Valhalla]

Can another company (not Merlin) just buy out this park and put it out of its misery already!

Six Flags Blackpool?
Walibi Blackpool?
Blackpool Cedar Fair Pleasure Beach?

I’m down for whatever really.

Just watching this you tube video from lift hills and thrills

So the pleasure beach have trademarked the name head above the clouds so could it be a new attraction or worst a up charge attraction.

 

[MattyH]

Probably something hot ice related

How... uninspired.

Bet it's an uncharge.

Wouldn't surprise me if they brand it like the London eye or Blackpool tower, as a separate attraction to the amusement park. Especially as we know they've got finance problems.
