Wilderfest is back at Chessington World of Adventures this summer and it appears this year's line up has been leaked on posters around the new construction area. The mane stage looks to the following "bands" headlining:
Seastorm has soft opened meaning the ride might close at any time due to technical difficulties. The ride remains the same but the entrance location has changed and the ride also has a new logo which can be spotted on the exit gate.
It's been a big week at Chessington for construction and one of the biggest changes at Project Amazon has been one of the theming elements going virtual.
In the past 24 hours, the ride Bobbing Barrels has been delivered to Chessington and installed!
Work on the Pirates Cove retheme / expansion continues at Chessington World of Adventures. Shipments of ride hardware and theming appears to continue to arrive every day at the park. A box wrapped up with Mack Rides tape sat next to Sea Storm waiting for installation at our best guess.
Big progress has been made at Chessington with the two new rides for summer 2022. Pirates Coves has recently received a shipment of the ride hardware for the new bobbing barrels water ride from Zamperella. Since our last visit, scaffolding has been removed which was covering the ride.
Project Amazon is slowly progressing at Chesssingotn with work on more major elements such as the foundations for the rollercoasters station beginning.
The Explorer Gate refurbishment is inching closer and closer to being finished every time we visit! Since our last visit to the park the area has been fully opened up with old buildings removed, fresh tarmac laid and we can finally see how big this entrance is.
3 months into the theme park season and work on the Explorer Gate refurbishment and makeover is continuing. A new entrance feature into the entrance plaza has recently been fitted, with a huge new truck and the Rhino topiary installed next to it.
Groundworks for Project Amazon are fully underway at Chessington and it shouldn't be long until we start to see the rollercoaster track and buildings start to be constructed. But all in good time!
It's full steam ahead at Chessington for Project Anchor, with Seastorm being reassembled and Timber Tug Boat being delivered to the park.
