rumour confirmation anyone?

[WR1]

hi, i heard a rumour a while back that a new park was opening in 2006, and the likely name for it was 'coaster kingdom'. i presumed that it would replace river country, but it seems that thats not the case. can anyone confirm the rumour of a new park for 2006? much appreciated.

Not heard that WR1!! Sounds exciting thoughAnyone got the inside info on this?

Can't confirm the rumor but can certainly add to it. I heard or read somewhere that other theme's being considered were Disney Villains or something with a Sea/Ocean/Water theme.

I think it would be a stretch for 2006 though. You'd have to figure a couple of years from the point where the serious building work started and I think rumor would spread like wildfire as soon as the serious building work started.

My husband has informed me this morning that he had read somewhere about both the Coaster park and the sea/water theme one too Steve!! Never tells me anything As he can't remember WHERE he read it, still non the wiser! Apart from anything else, any ideas where they might locate these parks? I never made it to River Country, it was always being refurbished in Oct when we went, last year we went at Easter, and it had gone!! [msncry]

There is a site by [website name edited] that gives a lot of information of the forthcoming rides and attractions. Worth a try.

Thanks guys i'll keep digging I heard sometime a go now, that disney are planing including the parks there have just now to have 10 parks with the 'coaster kingdom' being the 1st of the new one's.

Disney might be trying to step it up a gear, especially now the Orlando Flexticket provides serious competition to the Park Hopper passes. It's quite feasible now to spend 2 weeks around Orlando and never set foot in Disney. I'm sure it's things like that which give Disney execs sleepless nights.

Maybe we could ask John and Roger how the Flextickets sell against the Disney Park Hoppers and whether it looks like Disney are gaining or losing ground to the competition.
