The Australian theme park landscape is bracing for its biggest shake-up in decades. Plans have been unveiled for Infinity Planet, a staggering $2.6 billion integrated entertainment city proposed for Elimbah, situated in the Moreton Bay region between Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast.

Billed as Australia’s first true integrated entertainment destination, the 68-hectare site aims to combine a world-class theme park with massive-scale hospitality and cultural education, timed to capitalise on the lead-up to the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

Dreamworld on the Gold Coast has just given fans a first look at what will replace the recently retired Motocoaster, with a social media 'slip' pointing toward a new space-themed attraction possibly called ‘The Mars Discovery’.

Eagle-eyed fans spotted this teaser, in a video posted to Dreamworld’s official social media channels, this week. While the video was primarily intended to promote the park’s latest Flash Sale, a brief shot of CEO Greg Yong’s computer screen has revealed details about the future of the Motocoaster site.

The Sunshine Coast is set for a splash of excitement as plans for a new $60 million water park at Aussie World have been approved.

The Sunshine Coast Council has given the green light to the ambitious development, which will be built on a 3.5-hectare site directly north of the existing theme park in Palmview.

This landmark project is expected to transform the region's tourism landscape, with projections suggesting it could draw nearly 800,000 annual visitors by 2031 and inject up to $30 million into the local economy each year.

Get ready to step back onto the red carpet! Following its success earlier this year, Warner Bros. Movie World has announced that Hooray for Hollywood is returning for an exclusive encore season from 3 - 19 April 2026.

This limited-time event brings the glitz and glamour of Tinseltown back to the Gold Coast, offering park guests a chance to experience "Movie Magic" through a series of special performances, rare character encounters, and extended park hours.

Pack your appetite and your passport! Dreamworld on the Gold Coast has officially confirmed the return of its fan-favourite Street Food Festival for 2026.

Transforming the park’s Main Street into a bustling global food market, the festival is set to bring "bigger, bolder, and tastier" flavours to the Gold Coast this April.

Running daily from April 4 to April 19, 2026, the event coincides perfectly with the autumn school holidays, offering families a culinary journey around the world.

Get ready to step back in time for a night of glitz, glamour, and giving. Dreamworld has announced the return of its signature fundraising event, A Gatsby Soirée, held in support of the Dreamworld Wildlife Foundation (DWF).

Taking place on Saturday, May 30, 2026, this special evening promises an unforgettable blend of 1920s elegance and world-class wildlife conservation.

The gala will feature two of the park’s most immersive precincts, the iconic Tiger Island and the newly developed Rivertown. Guests are invited to don their finest Roaring 20s attire for a whole night dedicated to protecting Australia’s most vulnerable species.

While not a traditional theme park, the annual Moomba Festival transforms central Melbourne into a carnival playground each March.

From 5-9 March 2026, more than 30 rides and attractions will operate as part of the Moomba Festival, giving thrill-seekers and families alike plenty to explore along the Yarra River.

Families visiting Dreamworld can look forward to a special live entertainment experience as The Wiggles perform two shows inside the Dreamworld Exhibition Centre on Friday 6 March 2026.

Included with standard theme park admission, the performances offer young guests a chance to sing, dance and enjoy one of Australia’s most recognisable children’s entertainment acts as part of a full day at the park on the Gold Coast.
