Dreamworld is a theme park and zoo situated on the Gold Coast in Queensland. It is Australia's biggest theme park with over 40 rides and attractions.
Attractions ranges from thrill rides such as The Claw and Serpent Slayer to family and kids attractions such as the Dreamworld Express and Sky Voyager. Among the 40+ attractions includes the world's third tallest and fastest drop tower, The Giant Drop; The Gold Coaster, the oldest operating steel roller coaster in Queensland; and Steel Taipan, a triple-launch high-thrills coaster.
The park is made up of several themed lands: Ocean Parade, Kenny and Belinda's Dreamland, ABC Kids World (future RiverTown), Tiger Island, Main Street and Corroboree. These lands have a collection of rides, animal exhibits, shows, food outlets and merchandise shops.[1]
In December 2006, Dreamworld expanded its offerings by opening WhiteWater World next door.[2] On several occasions during the year, Dreamworld remains open after dark. This event, known as Park After Dark, includes all of the thrill rides and children's rides.[3]
Dreamworld was known for being the former location of the Australian Big Brother house filmed at the Dreamworld Studios, since the program began in Australia from 2001 to 2014.
