Our friends at BlooLoop report that the Moomin Valley Park in Japan has now officially opened.
Elsewhere, I had not heard anything about this previously, but a tweet from VHCoasters reports that Tokyo Dome City in Japan is opening what appears to be a Gerstaluer Family Shuttle coaster on March 23rd to be called “Panic Coaster Back Daaan”. It looks like the entire coaster experience will be entirely enclosed.

I’ve got a bit more information about the new Dungeon attraction opening soon at Alton Towers. I’m told that the cost of visiting the attraction will be between £5-7 or about £38 for unlimited trips through The Dungeon for the day. As with the other Dungeon attraction, it will feature extensive use of real live actors.
According to an official [COLOR=#1B8EDE !important]description[/COLOR] of the experience, ”You’ll be screaming with laughter whilst being sentenced by the Bishop of Stafford, before being condemned to a traitors boat ride down the Black River. In these dark chambers, try to survive the plague, and endure humiliation as well as pain at the hand of the Torturer. If you escape… stop at the local tavern, known to be one of Dick Turpin’s hideouts, he may even shoot by! Then visit the Witch of Burslem’s cottage... to come face to face with her ghost!”.
Elsewhere in the park I’m told they will add a pair of mini drop towers to CBeebies Land that will be themed as Peter Rabbit’s Hippity Hop. There will also be a Teletubbies Big Band Live show added sometime in April.

We were invited by Alton Towers Resort to be among the first people to see inside the new Alton Towers Dungeon! In this video we take a construction tour through the dungeon, along with previewing some of the scenes that will form part of the attraction when it opens on Saturday 23rd March 2019.
As this is very much work in progress, there's still many different set pieces and finishing touches to be added to the various scenes throughout The Alton Towers Dungeon. We're joined by the entertainments team at the park along with Merlin Magic Making as they talk about the exciting things that'll be happening throughout the attraction.
We were also lucky enough to preview some of the scenes for the new dungeon along with seeing some of the programming taking place for one of the scenes!

Universal Orlando has finally revealed more details about Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure, calling it the “most highly themed, immersive coaster yet”.
“Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure will combine a new level of storytelling and innovative coaster technology with rich environments and sets – including an actual forest with more than 1,200 live trees. It will also give guests the unique opportunity to join Hagrid – one of the most beloved characters in the Harry Potter films – on a journey to one of the most mysterious places in the wizarding world – the Forbidden Forest. With Hagrid as their guide, guests will fly deep into the Forbidden Forest and brave the mysteries and thrills beyond the grounds of Hogwarts castle on a groundbreaking coaster experience unlike any other.”
The minimum height to ride the new coaster is 48 inches, so smaller guests who are just a bit too small to tackle the Incredible Hulk will be in luck here. Riders will climb aboard magical motorcycles, riding on either the bike itself or in the sidecar, and race through the Forbidden Forest at speeds up to 50mph, moving both forwards and backwards at times, and encounter some of the Wizarding World’s rarest creatures, including: a Centaur, Cornish Pixies, Fluffy the three-headed dog, and a special new creature that has never been seen in the film series. Plus you’ll have an encounter with the Devil’s Snare along the way.

The latest rumors for Gardaland in 2020 suggest that the park may be looking at adding a separate gates waterpark to entertainment guests visiting the resort area and on-site hotels. One early rumor suggests they may be taking inspiration from Alton Towers waterpark, which could mean that this would be an indoor facility for guests to enjoy year-round.

With the announcement that Star Wars: Galalxy’s Edge is opening in Florida just before the end of August, Walt Disney World proceeded to put their annual price increase into effect now. It is interesting to note that the price of a one-day/one-park “Value” day ticket will remain at $109, but the price of a Regular and Peak days now have some play in them, with the average price of a Regular day being $125, while a visit on an average Peak day will cost you $139, but can cost up to $159. While discounts are available for multi-day ticket prices, if you want to park-hop with those tickets, add in an extra $60 to $80, depending on how many days you purchase. Annual Passes have not increased yet, but it is a safe bet that they will sometime before Galaxy’s Edge opens.
