Interview with Jamberoo Action Park's General Manager

Name: Dax Eddy

Title: General Manager (Jamberoo Action Park)

What does the Kangaroo Island development include exactly?

The development includes a Tornado, Behemoth Bowl, interactive play area, dual Mammoth River, 450-metre river with a range of themed features and a mag-lev Rocket Coaster. We will more than double our lockers and toilet facilities and will include approximately 1,000 square metres of shaded areas.

What were the reasons behind these attractions being chosen?

When we select rides, we focus on high capacity, high thrill, low maintenance and flexibility with theming.

Will entry prices rise with the Kangaroo Island addition?

We have not planned any increase at this stage. We are always mindful of maintaining our reputation as excellent value for money.

When do you plan for construction to start (depending on approval, of course)?

Development would commence in the first February to March after approval, however, construction planning meetings may determine a different time frame.

How many more guests do you expect to see when Kangaroo Island opens?

The development would be staged and increased numbers would depend heavily on weather and the economic climate.

Where do you see the park in 10 years?

The future is unknown; however, Jamberoo has the potential to deliver an experience comparable with the best water parks in the world.
