Cedar Fair 2023 Additions
DiamondbackFan replied to SonofBaconator's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
I went back and listened to the recording of the call again. At 23 minutes and 54 seconds: "Next Thursday we will be unveiling our 2023 capital investment program. Sharing with our guests, communities, and associates a first look at what exciting rides, attractions, and immersive entertainment are coming to our parks and resort properties." -

I was listening to the earnings call on Cedar Fair's investor page. https://ir.cedarfair.com/overview/default.aspx#upcoming-and-presentations Fool.com and seekingalpha.com will probably post the transcript of the call this afternoon. -

What do you mean? Titan track with infinity flyer trains can do the same things as RMC I-Box track. -
Kentucky Kingdom
DiamondbackFan replied to sccard01's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
The Kentucky State Fair Board is proposing redeveloping part of the Fairgrounds property with a youth sports complex, hotels, and restaurants. Several other improvements that benefit Kentucky Kingdom can be seen in the draft site plan. The road that currently cuts through the park would be redirected around the park, new VIP parking lot, redesigned access and drop off area by the park entrance, and a new parking lot and RV area. https://bloximages.newyork1.vip.townnews.com/wdrb.com/content/tncms/assets/v3/editorial/6/7a/67a0e7ea-dc64-11ec-8a64-0f8c94d3b97c/628e8966b17a9.pdf.pdf https://www.wdrb.com/news/business/millions-from-state-could-revamp-kentucky-expo-center-with-sports-complex-hotels/article_d682bd54-dc60-11ec-b60e-633df27ae2b8.html -
Does anyone else think this change is a sign that Cedar Fair also put Valleyfair up for sale? They said in the California's Great America sale announcement that the company conducted a strategic review of all assets in 2021 and then in Feb. 2022 they announced that the Halloween events were being scaled way back. https://ir.cedarfair.com/news/news-details/2022/Cedar-Fair-Capitalizes-on-Opportunity-to-Sell-Its-Land-at-Californias-Great-America-Amusement-Park/ It appears the waterpark expansion plans have fallen through and there isn't much of a growth opportunity at this park. https://screamscape.com/html/valleyfair.htm The best use for this land could still be as an amusement park, but it might be a better fit in the Premier Parks/EPR Properties or Palace Entertainment/Parques Reunidos portfolios. Selling this park would allow Cedar Fair to pay down more debt and would put the company in a better position to acquire another property that they could grow or add resort accommodations to.

It will probably be gone in 2-6 years. https://d18rn0p25nwr6d.cloudfront.net/CIK-0000811532/78a5bf4c-e155-489d-b56b-5161d8809409.pdf "On June 27, 2022, and as a condition to the sale of the Park, the Company entered into a lease with Prologis pursuant to which Cedar Fair, L.P., through its subsidiaries will continue to operate the Park.

Based on the rides Carowinds is getting for 2023, a Zamperla Nebulaz would be cheap and fit on the existing Slingshot pad. I wouldn't mind seeing a Zamperla Air Race in this location, but it will require a larger concrete pad to be constructed.

You are correct. A stock offer isn't always bad, but the Six Flags offer was mostly in stock at a time when the Six Flags stock price was crashing. Analysts think this deal will end up in the $70-80 per share range. https://www.cnbc.com/2022/02/02/seaworlds-bid-for-cedar-fair-makes-sense-but-it-may-have-to-pay-more.html
