Photos from todays visit will be uploaded soon.

Would a mid-July opening be possible since I intend to visit the park by the end of that month?

That's great news! I hope to make it back to Liseberg either late summer or early autumn.

Just beware that the world's largest youth football tournament Gothia Cup taking place 15-21/7 and Liseberg will be packed with participants....

 

Gothia Cup = 1700 teams from 80 nations.

^Awesome! I hope you have a great time.

 

I'd expect Valkyria to open by the end of July. I always try to wait a few weeks after opening, just to be sure. So I'll probably be at Liseberg around the time that you're going!

Yesterday I got the information the Liseberg would do the first test of Valkyria today, so I got up early to document the event:

Apparently Sweden played some kind of sport event today...... We lost :(

 

I also add photos from last week, when I visited the park with my sisters kids and a secret guest...

I saw that viking89 beat me with the video, but I didn't get the Twitter tags working anyway.

 

Now we just have to wait until the certification of Valkyria is done before we can start riding....

Great pictures Marcus! I love the last shot from the hill, looks very different compared to when Kanonen was standing in the same spot.

 

I must also say that I think the layout of this ride looks absolutely fantastic! Possibly the best dive coaster layout to date??

Liseberg just released a pressrelease: First testrun if Valkyria only in swedish.

 

It says it was a sucsessfull testrun and they will continue on with testruns, tweaking of the coaster, training of the staff, completion if the theming and finaly certification of the ride. They estimate it will take ~3 weeks until the grand opening.

^ That's a really unexpected spot for Kanonen to end up. I do want to see a confirmation from the park for that reason, but if so this is a shock.

 

Does anyone read First Drop Magazine? That's cited, but there isn't an online article I can find.
