Is Wuze Ball finally getting reliable opening hours?

The post mentions Sunday 4th, which isn't tomorrow, it is two days time. Are they open Saturday 3rd?

Portofino Bay is the most expensive hotel at Universal, so can't really be compared to Rosen Inn (one of the cheapest hotels in the area). Also don't forget the original three Universal Hotels (Portofino Bay, Hard Rock Hotel & Royal Pacific) include unlimited express pass at the original two...

I think its the use of the word Winter that makes me thing of Jan/Feb. November isn't Winter and December not really either. I'd just describe it as Christmas opening in that period. I agree that Chessington should have a larger Christmas offering and the weather in November/December is...

I still don't see significant January opening. I think the autumn opening will expand and Christmas will keep getting bigger. Then close down after the kids go back to school and re-open for half-term at the end of Feb.

From the TowersStreet History section https://towersstreet.com/construction/x-sector/#portdiscovery X Sector was firmly decided on early 1997 so would have been set in stone as a concept late 1996. Additionally the train design would have gone to B&M. Sorry I don't see that the Thorpe Park...

Oblivion opened March 1998, Tussauds bought Thorpe Park in 1998. The X Sector theme was set in stone long before the Thorpe Park purchase. I don't think that Tussauds acquiring Thorpe had any reflection on the X Sector theming for Oblivion and the surrounding area.

Yep and I think the leadership likely realise that planning permission to build a building in that area is still a good thing, as you are unlikely to get anything without a building in that area, even if you then change plans on what to do with the building it makes sense to keep the planning...

The station of Black Hole kept the Jules Verne style for its entire lifespan.

Asda, Argos & Sainsbury's all have large warehouses nearby so its understandable they would be concerned about traffic.

No it is just a conincidence. There is no reasonable chance that surveys and other planning processes were accelerated in the last few days.

I very much doubt that. There was general rumours sure but very much doubt AT knew more than his publisher who took the action this week that sparked the news and discussion

I still think realistically Gangsta Granny will open for 2026, just removing the "World of David Walliams" branding. The book/story itself isn't particularly controversial and you can still go into bookshops and buy it. Its just right now HarperCollins won't publish any of his future works due...

The edges of some planters and retaining wall are small rocks, so this could be what they are jet washing.

Very very unlikely as there is no need to.

Why replace the driving school at all? Especially with something for a lower age range.

Someone else followed up that the address details are confusing and it’s more likely for the Rip Ride Rocket coaster replacement than Lost Continent. Given Fast & Furious Drift in Universal Hollywood is Intamin then it makes sense that this coaster is likely to be as well.

I think this is the most likely direction. Remove the “world of David Walliams” branding but keep the Gangsta Granny ride, then start planning 2027/28.

There will be very little officially released on it, Universal work very differently to Disney and don't normally announce much or even provide concept art until very close to opening. The official confirmations for attractions at Epic came out in January to August 2024 (they revealed one land...

Hopefully it wasn't a wild goose chase trying to track them down before you couldn't find them ;-)
