per2012 Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 TusenFryd has started preparing for Halloween season. This year the Zombie Laboratory will have more Zombies than ever before. [fbvideonew] [/fbvideonew] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
per2012 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 TusenFryd to make their biggest investment ever for a single attraction the ride is stated to open in 2021. They will also get a new attraction for 2020 season, which will be announced in January. "It will be something new next season, but we are working on something very big for 2021. This will definitely be the park's biggest investment ever, for a single attraction", says Solli "Does the attraction you plan for 2021 need more space than the park today can offer?" "Maybe", says Solli, with a big smile. Considering them announcing that something will happen for 2021(17 months in advance), amount of money and the need of more space, I think we can expect to see a new roller coaster for the 2021 season. TusenFryd will be giving hints during 2020 season. Here are the other largest investments the park has done: Speed Monster - 70 million NOK Thunder Coaster - 50 million NOK Thors Hammer - 40 million NOK Ragnarok - 50 million NOK Sourcehttps://www.ha-halden.no/tusenfryd/nyheter/fornoyelsespark/tusenfryd-forbereder-seg-til-tidenes-attraksjonsinvestering/s/5-20-734969?access=granted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 ^Exciting! Please keep us updated. We really like Tusenfryd a LOT, but it's hard to justify the trip up there when a new coaster hasn't been added in some time now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norwegian coasterfan Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 ^^ This is exciting news Please let this be a really good one, we need some more coasters in this country... And I need to try the new and improved Thundercoaster too so this is another good reason to visit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
per2012 Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 We finally got a ride layout for the 2021 coaster, which looks to be a Gerstlauer Infinity Coaster. This layout look very similar to Gold Rush It looks like TusenFryd will add their very first Singel Rider line to this ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canobie Coaster Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Gold Rush was a lot of fun and had some snappy elements. I don't mind one bit seeing that ride cloned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
per2012 Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 I haven't tried Gold Rush myself, but I think this type of coaster will be a good addition to the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norwegian coasterfan Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 I was expecting a longer ride considering they said it will be their biggest investment ever, however this will be a good fit for them, and the new Gerstlauer’s are great so i’m sure this will be as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
per2012 Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 ^ Keep in mind that the layout is not final, they might change it before construction start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingdaKa Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 So either Gold Rush or Fury at bobbejaanland. Both parks + tusenfryd is owned by Parques Reunidos This chain do like to copy/clone/move stuff in their parks. Man they need to make a better version of Fury, looks better then gold rush too. Cool things like backwards and voting. Well It's good and needed for the park. Gerstlauer coasters are ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
per2012 Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 Looks like we are getting a inverted coaster at TusenFryd for 2021. I wonder if it will be Intamin or Vekoma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.J. Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 That is most certainly a Vekoma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
per2012 Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 I went for a walk around TusenFryd to see if there has been any construction going on. I found some markers for the 2021 coaster Station/launch Station/launch Second inversion? Second inversion? Marker F30A Does anyone know the difference of a marker with a red top and a fully orange marker? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nrthwnd Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 ^ I have no idea what the difference is. But it's still cool to see all those markers around, there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SharkTums Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Glad to see they're still progressing. Looking forward to a proper 'Scandi Trip' again sometime in the next few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norwegian coasterfan Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 I visited Tusenfryd yesterday, they where finally allowed to open for the season on saturday. They have the same measures as most parks operating at the moment (prebooking tickets, lower capacity on rides, social distancing markings in queues etc). It is clear that they have done a great job in fixing up the park since my last visit because the park was looking great! And they have also finished refurbishing Thundercoaster and it was running absolutely AMAZING, very smooth and it is running much faster over the first hill than before resulting in major airtime Can’t wait to return next year to try the new coaster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

per2012 Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 POV of the new coaster coming to TusenFryd. It looks really good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jedimaster1227 Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 That’s a really unique inverted coaster! I can’t wait to see what I looks like when construction is complete! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarlaKoaster Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 So this is a Gerstlauer inverted? AJ said above it's most definitely a Vekoma invert, but the layout looks similar to Gold Rush and I know Gerstlauer are building their first invert out in Japan so I guess it makes sense. Either that, or Intamin because they'll basically do anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
per2012 Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Tusenfryd shared some concept arts of a retheme of the former Enterprise area in a survey sent out on Facebook today. The upgrade is gonna be a retheme to an American smalltown located by Route 66 in the 50´s Mc-hopp, Trafikkfryd and Minibil will be moved to this area. Nightmare will be closed and Minibil will move in to the building that will be changed to a Firehouse. I think the new coaster will be pushed until their 35th anniversary in 2023 and that we will get this retheme next year 2022. Here are some before and after pictures Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 I love this park, but I have to be honest, I don't see that big of changes in their before and after pictures! Also, maybe, I just don't like 50s America theming!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
per2012 Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 Tusenfryd making upgrades for 250 million NOK On Saturday 23 April, Norway's largest amusement park opens for the season. Tusenfryd announces the largest investment in the park's 34-year history. Over the next three years, large parts of the park will be significantly upgraded, and several new attractions will be built. In a normal year, we have 500,000 guests inside the gates, and we have regularly launched new attractions and individual upgrades. What we are now publishing is a long-planned and comprehensive reinforcement of our offer. 250 million NOK enables a future-oriented investment our park has never before been the subject of, says CEO Bjørn Håvard Solli in Tusenfryd. The overall move is that "New TusenFryd" is transformed from a traditional amusement park into a theme park with new and clearly defined zones. Several big thrill attractions will also be built. Already this year, approx. 50 million NOK will be spent. The first work started earlier this winter to ensure that the first new attractions are ready for this year's season. - What we can reveal from new rides for 2022, is a new water slide in addition to the fact that we open "The Dungeon" - a labyrinth of scary experiences where actors also appear to really get the pulse of the guests. In addition, we are introducing two completely new themed zones, says Solli. The first new zone is called "Route 66" which is built as a small town just along the legendary "Route 66". New rides here includes a new bumpercars and motorcycle carousel for children, a new traffic school and an expanded and upgraded "Rockburger" restaurant. In the second new zone, "Expedition Lost Kingdoms" is being built, an area where you embark on an adventurous voyage of discovery on different continents. Here you will find a brand new roller coaster for children as well as other exciting experiences and activities guests can take part in. At the same time, Solli emphasizes that the park will not be perceived as a construction site. The public will not be significantly affected by the work as this will mainly take place the part of the year the park is closed. All the measures are otherwise based on customer surveys and evaluations from the guests. - It will be fantastic when everything is ready in 2024. The investment lays a solid and important foundation for Tusenfryd to be Norway's largest theme park for exciting and pleasant experiences with family and friends for many years to come. In addition, we are proud that we as a social actor in this way also secure hundreds of jobs for young people and contribute to creating significant value in accommodation, catering, trade, transport and in the tourism industry in the region in general, says Solli.
