Honestly Pleasurewood could look at introducing a new unique offering pricing structure wise that could help them out. Free to enter may not be the way, but perhaps non-rider tickets at very low rates, although this would require infrastructure. I think there's definatley a business case for at...

Also I assume some of these parks will actually make money, I imagine Beijing will probably do well enough. It'll just take time for them to stop being a burden on resources, as they will have to work off there construction debt.

There's always going to be maintence work happening, it's a building sat not being used, or used in a minimal way. But that doesn't mean it doesn't need maintaining. If something big was happening it would be blatantly obvious, there would be a big construction team on site. I'm sure they will...

It could mean a huge variety of activities. From promoting events to new rides, to ensuring there social media teams support each other. So If Towers are doing a particular promotion strategy they don't all do stuff at the same time (Which can risk meaning they don't clog feeds, reducing the...

I can't see them floating Merlin, especially as they not long took it private because they had less control over business (which all three current owners had large stakes in anyway). I do think however that splitting the business up isn't entirely of the cards, I don't think it's something...

If they're paying some company will do it. And haven't a British company been involved with all the theming at the new park in Saudi Arabia? Drayton have always been an odd park when it comes to theming. Some stuff gets it, while other stuff sort of just gets its own theme, or basically nothing.

The idea is to cut out the middle man who's currently taking a profit. By taking out this profit margain the idea is to use the money for improvements, and less rise in rail faires (and hopefully a reducation, although the gov are staying quiet on this at the moment). This is going to be a long...

I think Drayton might have problems with building a woodie due to noise concerns, it might be possible but I wouldn't say its the most marketable thing. There next coaster should be something really easy to market.

Billionaires are right wing, they're leaving because there's no longer a Tory government who helps them out, plenty of millionaires are staying, it's just he ultra ultra rich, who don't do anything for the economy anyway. Also Rachel from accounts? Is that not a bit sexist (not that I'm claiming...

And it's still Intamin, and it's still staling, the point still stands.

The name really isn't very marketable, neither is the branding, honestly they'd have been better going with there old tactic of getting a sponsor name in, would've worked better. Or even just calling it something more explanatory would've been good, or something perhaps emphasising it's...

Gold rush clearly has a design failure, this isn't Drayton Manor Resorts fault entirely, same as Hyperia at Thorpe. Intamin have a habit of building rides that are difficult to maintain and don't work properly in there first season because they've built something wrong. It valleying is hardly...

To those saying this deal is a fundamental change and a betrayal etc, this deal is simply a tinkering of what we already have, which was planned by both sides when the initial deal was signed. There was always going to be changes to the deal in 2025 as they realised what worked, what didn't. The...

I do think for Paultons a eurofighter is an odd choice model wise. I think the thrill level is the right step up, but they surely could've gone with a vekoma as @Leigh has said. If Gerst did water coasters then I would say they could a cheap package deal, but they don't, and even then other...

It suggests they already have a plan for the site, probably sold or going to move some of the rides to there other parks. Rip the place bear, then probably sell the land bit by bit, and remove any hope. A community owned, local business park could be good, but they'd have to massively scale...

Wales Online is reporting a local resident has put together some form of community consortium (but won't state who is backing them) to try and reopen the park. https://www.walesonline.co.uk/whats-on/whats-on-news/oakwood-wasnt-just-theme-park-31655880

This could still be Zierer, they've made a few coasters with vertical lift hills, and they seem to have a lower height restriction than the Gerst ones.

I'm not sure this park has been built for direct profits though or if it's being funded by an organisation that will benefit from Saudi having the reputation that comes with a big theme park or perhaps the Saudi government. I do perhaps think it's just about reputation and less about making...

I think it'll open with less coasters, as mentioned opening a park full stop is going to be problematic they know this. They are going to want to have the best opening possible, they are introducing the theme park brand to a new country, and are going to want to have the best reputation...

I know what I'd like to see, and I've said it for a long time, duelling woodie, one side more thrilling one side more family, however I don't think this is what's happening here, although it would be great with the Viking theme. I have a few predictions on manufacturer more than anything: Mack...
