News Theme park industry’s dilemma as it battles back by Steven Scott 25th Feb 2020 5:09 AM Premium Content Subscriber only <p> </p> <p> QUEENSLAND tourism chiefs are bracing for a further decline in visitors to Gold Coast theme parks after the damning findings from the Dreamworld inquest. </p> <p style="font-stretch:96%;"> The region is also expected to feel the impact of reduced international tourist on the back of coronavirus travel bans. </p> <p style="font-stretch:99%;"> But the industry and State Government haves to manage how to promote the tourist mecca without compounding the grief of victims' loved ones or exacerbating safety fears. </p> <p> Village Roadshow yesterday moved to assure tourists that safety measures at its parks - including Movie World and Sea World - were up to standard. </p> <p> Queensland Tourism Industry Council chief Daniel Gschwind warned the tourism industry would have to expect some travellers to reconsider visiting a theme park. </p> <p> "As a consumer, you are confronted with how you should be respectful to the victims and the family," he said. </p> <p> The Queensland Government last week announced funding for new tourism campaigns including one focused on the Gold Coast. </p> <p style="font-stretch:99%;"> It is understood one of the planned promotions includes reference to theme parks but it is not clear if this will go ahead. </p> <p> Dreamworld has struggled to attract visitors since the 2016 Thunder River Rapids tragedy but numbers increased in recent months, with reported crowds of up to 10,000 people a day. </p> <p> Since the deaths, the theme park has opened a new theatre and water slides and has announced plans for further expansion including a state-of-the-art rollercoaster. </p> <p> But tourism bosses warned Dreamworld and other parks could see patrons stay away unless safety was guaranteed. </p> <p> Mr Gschwind said advertising campaigns would not be enough to restore faith in safety and this could only be done over time. </p> <p> "Whether they are going on a tour, staying in a hotel or doing any other activities, people have to have a sense that their safety comes first," Mr Gschwind said. </p> <p> "As an industry we have to recover the trust and show safety will not be taken for granted. </p> <p> "Reputations are built over a long time but can be lost in a short time." </p> <p> Village Roadshow released a statement yesterday, stressing the point that there was "nothing more important in the culture of our company than safety". </p> <p> "Our rides are modern and safe. Our rides undergo rigorous daily, weekly, monthly and annual internal and external inspections," the statement read. </p> <p> </p> <div class="recurring-inline-align" data-overlay-marker='{"edit_url":

important to our customers having confidence that the experiences we offer are safe. </p> <p> State Tourism Industry Development Minister Kate Jones met the Dreamworld chiefs last week. </p> <p> While she expressed dismay over the tragedy, Ms Jones said the new leadership of the theme park had improved safety. </p> <p> "Dreamworld has done it very tough," she said before yesterday's findings were released. </p> <p> "They absolutely had to do the right thing which was listen to the recommendations and implement them. </p> <p> "Over this summer holidays we have seen them getting back to levels of significant growth." </p> <!-- Related stories list --> <div class="container-related related-content-subscriber" style="display: none"> <h4>More Stories</h4> <ul class="nolist"> <li
