[old showie]

Anyone know whos taken their gear to Auckland for the Easter show heard there was giant wheel ,hollywood horrors ,someone building a big ghost train ??? ,specialy for the show [ umm ] games going over as well ,Mahons are not doing it ,theyl be set up downtown Auckland,i think everyone will go there instead ,free entry

Will be interesting to see what arrives, and how much each ride is, not much info on the Show's page. Heard Ex Cookie Bear factory now a nice looking Ghost Train, and presume the Hurricane is coming up from the South.

[old showie]

Orh well looks like the ex cookie bear ,new ghost train is going to be their main attraction lol, and the kamikazi thats been parked up for ages ,haha, cant wait to see the line up Downtown i sure it will be huge ,maybe some rides that havnt been out for a while will be given a blowout ,enterprise, farrari cars, superloop,roller coaster,what ever is there will look impressive

anyone know what australian suppliers they've signed for next years show? would be a good gig for Oneil's since they've got no equipment on at RES anymore. Fear my live again?? haha

[Hardrock]

O neils don't have any gear in carnival area but there still got gear in the kids carnival area at the royal.

[princess]

Mmmm so we now have a guessing game going, my pick TPA

[old showie]

Dont realy matter who it is ,they just need to take afew rides ,then thes the money change over NZ --- Aussie $$$$ mmnn ,then youve got 1000s of people not going to return to the Easter Show , damage has been done , then all you need is Mahons to have another Downtown event with ,say Roller coaster afew other rides that didnt go out this yr & a fireworks display , its bye bye easter show , free entry downtown ,$25 per head easter show , is the Aus operator going to run at NZ prices be interesting , i hope thes another DOWNTOWN Bigger & Better ,
