SeaWorld Orlando's Future Plans

[shiekra38]

Yeah, Praise way is every Saturday from Jan 20th until Feb 10th.

Gotcha...Seems their events are doing well

It wasn't here last year when SSFF started because it replaced BBBBQ and Viva La Musica. It isn't on the current schedule, and I wouldn't expect it to return. Then again Just For Kids is returning this year, and it's been gone for a few years.

Infinity Falls' Construction walls has a sign for it.

That’s weird. Last I checked, which was when The quoted post was posted, it still wasn’t on the schedule, while all other events were there.

There is no BBBBQ per se this year, but from the beginning of the food festival until March 25th there will be BBQ. From March 31st until the festival ends they will have Latin inspired cuisine.

There wasn't a BBBQ last year. The Food & Wine festival effectively replaced it.

Who needs bands? At least we still got beer and barbecue!

I think there’s still bands every weekend. They just haven’t announced the acts yet for the same reasons as in the past.

Yeah, I was under the same impression.

Would be nice if ZZ Top could come again!

 

[Bulldog45]

They've gotten some pretty big names in the past so I'm interested to see who they are able to pull in this year.

First concert is about two weeks away. Wish they would announce something already.

Created a new thread for the Festival, please move all discussion over there.

EXCLUSIVE: Details for Happy Harbor Overhaul at SeaWorld Orlando - Touring Central Florida

 

[Kraken&Manta]

So they're rerouting the main path so that you can't bypass the area. Clever idea, it'll bring more people into the area and make it feel more lively than a simple kids' play place. If done right this should be a fantastic addition to the park; along side Infinity falls this will really help out the southern area of the park which felt quite neglected compared to other areas.

Kinda bummed about the orca statue photo-op. Hopefully they can be relocated instead of demolished.

 

[anihilnation]

Makes sense, they might be able to get this for 2019, then go all out in 2020 for a new major attraction.

I think it’s time for a new thread for this project.

Alan did a great article on why SeaWorld is in it's current position. Hint: not because of Black Fish or attraction investment choices.

Great analysis. Everything Blackstone touches ends up shriveling on the vine.

Yes, investment companies, by nature, are kind of evil. They strip assets & retirement funds and close down operations that were successful for the most part. They've ruined many a community with plant closings, corporate office shutdowns, etc. They suck out profit, consolidate operations and put very little back in... But that said, Blackstone is the Dark Side of the investment companies, rotten to the core, the worst of the worst.
