Late 2024 - Wizard of OZ - (12/20/2024) Congratulations to WB MovieWorld in Austalia as Blooloop reports that the park has now opened the new Wizard of Oz themed land and attractions, as well as bringing all your favorite Wizard of Oz characters to life. You can also see a video tour of the land and rides below.
(12/6/2024) Testing is underway on the Flight of the Wicked Witch roller coaster at Warner Bros. MovieWorld in Australia as a key feature of that park’s upcoming Oz themed land.
Flight of the Wicked Witch, a brand-new Vekoma Rides Suspended Family Coaster, has begun testing at Warner Bros. Movie World in Australia. This is part of a larger Wizard of Oz area.
(10/12/2024) Blooloop reports that Warner Bros MovieWorld Australia is now testing their new Wizard of Oz themed Kansas Twister roller coaster. The new creation is actually a pair of side-by-side Vekoma Family Boomerang coasters that reach a height of 22 meters. Next door the park also has installed a dark purple Vekoma inverted coaster called the Flight of the Wicked Witch. Look for the new coasters along with the new Wizard of Oz themed land to open by the end of the year for the park’s busy peak season.
(2/13/2024) WB MovieWorld Australia announced new details about their planned Wizard of Oz themed land and attractions set to open by the end of 2024. The land will feature a Yellow Brick Road, buildings of the Emerald City, the “Flight of the Wicked Witch” family suspended coaster, and a pair of interwoven Family Boomerang coasters that will be named the “Kansas Twister”.
(7/20/22) Believe it or not but Warner Bros. Movie World Australia just announced that they are building a new Wizard of Oz themed land for the 2024 season. According to the announcement on Facebook the land will feature a pair of racing Family Boomerang coasters, a new suspended family coaster and lots of immersive theming. Based on the artwork, the racing family boomerang coaster tracks appear to be set on a drab Kansas farm looking property, while the suspended family coasters runs in and out of a dark castle structure with red and blue trains that immediate bring the Flying Monkeys to mind. In the background is a large green structure that can only represent the Emerad City, but what lies inside is still a mystery. So far they are only promoting the land as having two rides, so maybe the large green structure could contain some kind of interactive walk-through adventure, but it could also simply be a large restaurant. One never knows…
