This Week's Theme Park News: • Two of America's biggest amusement park companies are coming together, Cedar Fair and Six Flags announced this week. The combined company, worth more than $3.5 billion, will boast 27 amusement parks, 15 water parks and nine resort properties in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. Cedar Fair CEO Richard Zimmerman will be president and CEO of the combined company with Selim Bassoul, the current president and CEO of Six Flags, will become executive chairman. A merger of equals, they have self dubbed this. • Six Flags Magic Mountain announced the official ground breaking for its new solar carport. When complete, the 12.37-megawatt solar array and energy storage system will offset 100% of the park's energy usage • Six Flags Fiesta Texas and Six Flags Over Georgia each are opening Kid Flash Cosmic Coaster - the first installations of the "P'Sghetti Bowl" single-rail racing coaster from Skyline Attractions. • SeaWorld San Diego will be breaking ground for its new 2024 attraction, Jewels of the Sea: A Jellyfish Experience • WDW shared a promo video this week of Epcot's upcoming nighttime show luminous the symphony of us which feature a new original song called Heartbeat Symphony. • According to a Disney Executive in charge of Disney's live entertainment, parades and nighttime spectaculars, “Drones are the next thing” we should expect to see coming to the Disney park's after dark shows. During a panel discussion about the new season of “Behind the Attractions” coming to Disney+ next week, Steven Davidson mentioned Drones, saying “They're kind of a new thing. We're doing a lot of work in that. So all I'm going to say is, ‘There's more to come.'” • The Tokyo Disney Resort has reported increased attendance at their properties thus far for the first six months of the Oriental Land Company's fiscal year. This represents a nearly 40% increase over the same term from the previous year for a total of 12.5 million visitors, with 1.63 million of them being international guests visiting from countries outside of Japan • New pictures taken on site at the future Six Flags Qiddiya construction site can be found over at ThemeparX this week. This includes current shots of the massive Falcon's Flight roller coaster. And we might be about to see roller coaster trains for this coaster at the upcoming Iaapa expo, if rumours are to be revealed

Coaster Nerd Con, or CNC23, took place from July 6-14, 2023.  This is the annual trek where Matt and two friends take an epic journey to ride roller coasters, debate the best park food and experience the best the industry has to offer. This year, Josh got to join them at their first park, Six Flags Great America. From there, the trio went to Lost Island Theme Park, Adventureland, Worlds of Fun, Silver Dollar City, Frontier City, Six Flags Over Texas, SeaWorld San Antonio, and Six Flags Fiesta Texas. As usual, there were lessons learned along the way. In this episode, Matt and Josh talk about the “things that matter” to the park-going experience.    Enthusiasm matters   For those who know Jeffrey Siebert, Park President at Six Flags Fiesta Texas, you know that he has enthusiasm to spare. In fact, he calls himself an “enthusiast who gets to run a theme park,” and that enthusiasm shows from the look of the park (amazing), the interactions with the team (hospitable and friendly), and the fact that everything was open. His energy is infectious, and that has an incredibly positive impact on the entire operation.    We also ran into team members at other parks, such as Lost Island, who leveled up their own enthusiasm. The gentleman who greeted us for the dark ride and the chef who checked on us as we ate lunch both positively enhanced our experience because of their enthusiasm and positive demeanor.    Recognition matters   There are so many ways to recognize a team member and so many great accomplishments to recognize them for! As we learned from Tony and Gina Claassen, there is something that Silver Dollar City does that combines recognition with a way to immortalize loyal team members.   Disney has the windows on Main Street, and Silver Dollar City has customized, themed posters that are placed throughout the park that recognize team members that have been with the company for 25 years. The best part is that Gina and Tony got to help design their posters and had a choice of where to put them. Next time you're at SDC, see if you can find them!   Environment matters   The look, the feel, the emotion, the smells, the music… it all plays into the environment you are stepping into and will be the foundation of an immersive experience. Worlds of Fun has done considerable retheming and upgrades to the park, including paint and new facades. Lost Island was clean, incredibly well-themed, and paid attention to the little details that really made a difference.    Props must also be given to the Bamboozler (Round-Up) at Worlds of Fun.  The internal paint job (which one could argue wasn't needed for the ride to function) created a visually interesting and attractive experience not just for the riders but the guests on the midway as well.    History matters   Many rides and attractions have had lives before landing in their current home. Parks also move things all the time to accommodate expansion and new experiences. It truly enhances the experience when a park takes the time to acknowledge and document the journey that a ride has taken to get to its current home.    A notable piece of history for Matt is the Grand Carousel at Worlds of Fun, which used to be at Geauga Lake in Aurora, OH. Geauga Lake was Matt's home park growing up, and there is a very good chance he rode it when he visited with his family. Sharing the history can develop and strengthen the emotional connection of the experience.    Activities matter   As much as the CNC crew loves roller coasters, it was really fun to discover, observe and participate in a variety of activities that bring people together and let them have fun or challenge themselves in a non-traditional way (for a theme park).   Lost Island had a number of activities that allowed guests to challenge their minds as well as their body. Silver Dollar City staged a good ‘ol fashioned water balloon fight, and Fiesta Texas has a state-of-the-art gaming center.     For more on the CNC23 trip, look for #CNC23 on Facebook and Instagram.    To connect with AttractionPros, visit attractionpros.com or email attractionpros@gmail.com.

We're BACK! Sabina Graves (Gizmodo, This Means Podcast Producer) rejoins the podcast to discuss the latest and greatest with the Looney Tunes Franchise; including a re-cap of our trip to Six Flags: Fiesta Texas and the Vegas Philharmonic at the Smith Center to catch Bugs Bunny at the Symphony! The Looney Tunes are celebrating the Lunar New Year with a slew of merchandise that includes collaborations with brands from BOSS, UNIQLO, KOHL'S, UNIQUE VINTAGE, MOSCHINO, GAP, and SCOTCH & SODA just to name a few! This also allows for the brand to pump out new content such as this special Lunar New Year centric short from the team behind Bugs Bunny Builders where they teach kids the different aspects of the traditional Chinese celebrations such as the food, the parade and the reveal of the next animal. SCOPELY and Looney Tunes: World of Mayhem have new characters entering the fray with Lunar Bugs and Lunar Lola, both wearing traditional Lunar New Year symbols on their stylish wardrobes. In Looney Tunes News: Duck Dodgers: The complete Series is headed to Blu-Ray on March 28th!  This will include a new remaster of the the classic Chuck Jones and Michael Maltese short that started it all, as well!

We are BREWING UP GOOD FORTUNE for the NOMINEES! SIX FLAGS: FIESTA TEXAS While the rides that weren't breaking down every 10 minutes were fun, there was so much that was a disappointment by our trip. - No Hot Chocolate Stands - No Popcorn - The Price of Carnival Games was Astronomical! We're talking $15 a throw! - The Batman Ride continuously broke down. - The Holiday in the Park was advertised to continue through the Holiday Season and yet everything for it pretty much ended on the 23rd. LAME! - The Soda Machines were broken. The food was small compared to it's price and to top it all off; My Mother was cold!  While the park activities left a bad taste in our mouths, we did see some wonderful friends and the merchandise was out of this world!   The trip to Vegas to catch Bugs Bunny At the Symphony! George Daugherty and the entire Vegas Philharmonic made up for the prior week's disappointments! You can check out the entire interview on the YouTube page or listen to that podcast next!

As coaster enthusiasts, we all have friends who we refer to (lovingly) as "GP." So when members of the GP visit a park that you've never visited, you obviously want the "real" story that isn't as coaster focused. Andrew is joined by his college roommate Clint and Clint's "friends from back home" Chris and Kyle to talk about their recent trip to Six Flags Fiesta Texas. We talk personal coaster history, coaster counts, and of course, Chop Six. This has the chance to be one of the funniest episodes we've ever done! You can connect with the show by hitting us up on social media @Coaster101: Facebook  |  Twitter  |  Instagram.
