Thrill walk planned for Gold Coast
WORLD
ADRENALINE junkies could soon be walking among the clouds around the edge of the world’s tallest residential building if Dreamworld’s plan for an outdoor skywalk is approved. The Australian theme park owner is planning
to create a new adventure attraction on Australia’s Gold Coast with a climb around the top of the Q1 Tower, 230 m above the ground. Dreamworld owner Ardent Leisure has taken
over the rights to Qdeck - the observation attraction at the top of the structure - and lodged an application with the Gold Coast City Council to build a walkway around the outside of level 78 up to the start of the spire. The QWalk climb has been heralded as a
saviour for the local tourism industry, with the city desperately crying out for new attractions to lure repeat visitors.
Terminator attraction unveiled
THE Sudden Impact! Entertainment Company is to launch its new Terminator X: A Laser Battle for Salvation attraction in three parks around the world. After the attraction was launched in
Australia at the end of last year, New York-based Sudden Impact is taking it to La Ronde in Montreal, Canada; Sunway Lagoon in Kuala Lumpar, Malaysia; and Six Flags in Mexico. Terminator X: A Laser Battle for
Salvation is the brainchild of group chairman and CEO Lynton Harris. Based on the post-apocalyptic world conjured up by the blockbuster Hollywood franchise, the attraction will provide visitors with the chance to experience what it is like to be inside a live video game.
Aldar enlists PepsiCo
ALDAR, Abu Dhabi’s leading property development investment firm, has signed an exclusive long- term supply and sponsorship agreement with US-based PepsiCo. Under the terms of the five-year deal, PepsiCo will become the exclusive supplier of beverages and
snacks for Ferrari World Abu Dhabi, the world’s largest indoor theme park, which will open to the public on October 28, 2010. This is the first agreement to take place under the Aldar Partnership Programme. Launched earlier
this year, the programme is the first of its kind in the UAE, offering partners value and investment benefits from one or more of Aldar’s developments across the residential, commercial and leisure sectors in Abu Dhabi. Commenting on the agreement, Areej Al Naqbi, director of strategy and business development
at Aldar, said: “This is not a standard sponsorship deal. It is an alliance, a partnership between Abu Dhabi’s largest developer and one of the premier food and beverage companies in the Middle East, who have joined together to share their vision of growth and sustainability.”
