FLAMINGO LAND (UK)
Park News - (2/15/2026) A social media post from Coaster Chall indicates that some rides may have been removed from Flamingoland in the UK over the winter. The list includes the Flip Flop (a Fabbri made swinging pendulum style ride), the Rotataur (an old western waggon themed Zamperla Ferris Wheel) and the Tea Cups (which actually closed in 2023, but were left standing). All attractions have been removed from the park’s website as well.
2026 - Lost River Replacement Flume Ride - (11/15/2025) Flamingoland can be seen testing their new flume ride for 2026 in the clip below. This is a sort of refurbishment / rebuild of the park’s “Lost River” attraction that closed in 2024, which will feature a new smaller drop and new show scenes, along with passing through part of the Sea Lion enclosure along the way. The big surprise will be the addition of a simulator platform section of the ride where the boats are loaded onto a motion platform in front of a large screen before the big finale.
The official announcement and new name has yet to be released, but the project was said to be expected for the 2025 season, but delays have pushed it back to 2026. The goal here was to take a medium thrill ride and transform it into a more themed and family friendly attraction that may have a broader appeal, without getting everyone too wet.
