  1. From yesterday's official press release:

    Twelve rides will be added to two of our parks, including three world record rides, before the end of the year. The opening of the 250 room LEGOLAND Hotel in FY 2020 will complete our destination and increase the available on-site hotel room inventory to over 1,300 keys. The introduction of further hotel rooms to the destination will be a key driver of growth in international visitation facilitating the bundling of our theme park tickets with hotel stays and ultimately increasing length of stay, visitation and dwell times.
    - 12 new attractions coming in the second semester this year
    - Including 3 world record rides
    - A hint to further hotel expansion after Legoland Hotel

    The company continues to work on its ride enhancement plan which will allocate a select portfolio of 10-12 rides purchased for the previously planned Six Flags Dubai park, to MOTIONGATE Dubai and Bollywood Parks Dubai to increase dwell time and drive repeat visitation.

    We are on track with the enhancement works at MOTIONGATE Dubai and Bollywood Parks Dubai, which are expected to be completed in H1 2020. The enhancements will benefit our visitors by offering a broader choice of entertainment and thrill rides and are expected to increase dwell times and drive repeat visitation.

    Any news about the enhancement plan? The Expo 2020 is going to open in just 9 months, they need to open the rides before that opening...

    Did the works start? Any pictures?

  3. Legoland Hotel progressing well in the background, due to open in 2020.


  4. Some sources have suggested that the theme for the new rides won't include Saw. However, it's being rumored that the theming will be after John Wick and Now You See Me; both Lionstgate franchises. So it makes sense.

  5. Interesting video that goes over the construction of Motiongate, within DPR.

  7. Indeed, the shareholders have approved yesterday the enhancement plan. They will add 10-12 attractions including world-record thrill rides into Motiongate and Bollywood Parks. This will take 1 year once the construction starts. 8 remaining rides from Six Flags will be stored for future resort enhancements.

  8. According to Theme Park Insider, it appears that both Bollywood and Motiongate Dubai will receive expansions in the near future.

  9. Attendance is up 22% in 2018 with 2,8 million visitors.
    Lapita Hotel had a 60% occupancy vs 37% in 2017.

    No mention of Six Flags.
