FLAMINGO LAND (UK)
Park News - (9/21/2025) As crazy as this sounds, would you believe there was a stabbing at Flamingo Land this week? According to the report on the BBC a 22-year old guest has been arrested after reportedly stabbing a 30-year old man at the park. The victim was taken to a hospital for treatment for the wounds which are not supposed to be life-threatening. The twisted part is that in addition to the 22-year old attacker, the police have also arrested a 22-year old woman, a 54-year old woman, and 51-year old man “on suspicion of assisting the offender.” There has got to be more to this story for sure... or maybe even a video? In the meantime, if you were at the park and saw something, the police are looking for witnesses to come forward. Meanwhile... these days most theme parks run their guests through metal detectors and such. Having never been to the park myself, do they not have such security measures in place at the gate, or did this take place just outside of the security check area? (5/19/2025) Would you believe that a second Flamingo Land theme park could still arrive in the UK? According to Blooloop the theme park operator has proposed a plan to open a second theme park in Scotland on the banks of Loch Lomand. Apparently the original plan pitched was rejected by the local Loch Lomand and Trossachs National Park authority board last fall, but Flamingo Land has filed an appeal which appears likely to move forward. Those opposed to the plan to build a theme park call the Flamingo Land proposal “unpopular” and claim it will be destructive to the environment of Loch Lomand. (9/17/2024) A proposal by Flaming Land to build a £40 million resort project on the shores of Loch Lomond in Scotland has now been rejected. Flamingo Land’s proposal for the site would have included a water park, a resort hotel and transportation monorail, but on Sept. 16th the plan was officially rejected by the local National Park authority board. According to the board who unanimously voted against the proposal, the plan didn’t fall into compliance with the area’s environmental and conservation policies. The proposed plan has been in development on and off since 2018.
2025 - Nothing is known to be in development at this time... nothing added in 2023 - 2024 either.
