Warner Bros. Movie World for Headline Thrills

 

Warner Bros. Movie World delivers cinematic adrenaline, heart thumping drops, and story-driven experiences that bring your favourite worlds to life.  With blockbuster rides and family-friendly fun, the park stands out as one of Australia’s must-visit destinations for those chasing both thrills and smiles. 

 

The DC Rivals HyperCoaster is a must ride for anyone who lives for speed and height. It is the tallest, longest, and fastest HyperCoaster in the Southern Hemisphere, with a dramatic 89 degree drop and a 1.4 kilometre track that keeps you on the edge from first climb to final brake. It is pure exhilaration and a defining Gold Coast theme park moment. 

 

Movie World keeps raising the bar for fun and the all-new  The Wizard of Oz™ precinct is the latest chapter. Step inside a realm of bright colour, character encounters, and two new family-friendly coasters, Flight of the Wicked Witch and Kansas Twister. Beyond the land of Oz, adrenaline-seekers can launch skyward on the Batwing Spaceshot, a rapid vertical ascent that delivers breathtaking views before plunging back to earth or take on the Green Lantern Coaster, with one of the steepest inverted drops in the Southern Hemisphere.

Family Friendly Thrills and Shared Moments 

 

The best places to visit in Australia are the ones that offer choices for every traveller in your group. At Movie World, you can mix high velocity coasters with family rides and character meet and greets, so both brave teens and wide-eyed little ones get their perfect day. Between rides, seek out meet and greet sessions and candid photo opportunities, then catch the Star Parade for a burst of colour and music that feels like stepping onto a movie set. It is a park built for shared stories, and that is what great holidays are made of. 

 

Planning ahead is part of the fun. Check opening hours and the entertainment schedule to make the most of your day, from live shows to The Star Parade down Main Street. The Village Roadshow Theme Parks app brings five parks together in one handy planner, helping you navigate the park with maps, ride wait times, show times, and staying in the loop with what is happening across the park areas.
