Park Rush

We have an exciting glimpse at Guardians Of The Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind this week, but most of the news comes via China and Japan! We take a look at Universal Studios Beijing after a 2021 opening was confirmed, and four new attractions coming to Tokyo Disneyland all on the same day in April 2020!

Bravely battling through the hangover from hell, Josh joins Tom to talk through the 2020 festival line-up at Disneyland Paris and what it tells us about the longer term future of the resort. Plus, Busch Gardens shows off Iron Gwazi at Tampa Bay and SeaWorld Orlando announces a new rollercoaster for next year.

Josh topped up his tan and unleashed his washboard abs for his recent visit to Volcano Bay, which he reckons has some of the very best flumes, slides and water rides in Florida. If you're planning a trip to Universal's water park, make sure you listen in!

Galaxy's Edge has finally opened at Hollywood Studios and its arrival brings with it exciting new details on the upcoming Rise Of The Resistance and Galactic Starcruiser. We discuss all that, plus updates on new rollercoasters coming to other US parks in 2020, including an eagerly-anticipated refresh for Gwazi at Busch Gardens Tampa Bay.

D23 always provides an epic surge of Disney theme park news and this year is no different! We delayed this episode by a day to make sure we didn't miss a thing, from Avengers rides coming to Paris and California to a new Frozen land in Hong Kong - and more details on huge changes coming to Epcot! All that, plus the latest murmurings on The London Resort!

The definitive Disney theme park makes for our longest trip report to date as Josh talks us through his recent visit to Magic Kingdom. Every ride is covered, from Splash Mountain to Buzz Lightyear, and we look ahead to what's to come ahead of the 50th anniversary in 2021.

Avatar! Everest! Dinosaur! Nemo! Tigers, lions, but no bears, oh my! Tom and Josh have plenty to talk about as they report back on their recent trip to Animal Kingdom.

The news we've all been waiting for has finally arrived! We dig through everything we know so far about Universal's Epic Universe, the long-rumoured and now official third/fourth Universal theme park set to arrive in Orlando in the next four to six years. From Nintendo and How To Train Your Dragon, Fantastic Beasts to Classic Monsters, we do a deep dive on everything we know and everything we think we know about this very exciting project.

There hasn't been much in the way of good news on The London Resort in recent years, with delays and major partners pulling out of the project dominating the headlines. But with new deals struck with ITV and Paramount, has this ambitious theme park by the Thames been given a new lease of life?

All this week's reminiscing on the 1969 Moon landings made us think it was a good time to drop our review of Mission To Mars, the sci-film inspired by the old Disney ride of the same name.
