lond Posted April 14, 2018 Posted April 14, 2018 Went by Liseberg today and they was testing the new wave swinger. /// Marcus
chickenbowl Posted April 16, 2018 Posted April 16, 2018 Any update on the status of Valkyria? Is the tunnel finished yet?
dcxs Posted April 17, 2018 Posted April 17, 2018 The digging is complete and they are now pouring the concrete. Maaaaybe a mid June opening is possible (guess)
chickenbowl Posted April 17, 2018 Posted April 17, 2018 The digging is complete and they are now pouring the concrete. Maaaaybe a mid June opening is possible (guess) Thanks for the update! I suspect once concrete is poured they can finish installing the final pieces of track, yeah? My first visit is in late June, and I'm really hoping I won't have to miss out on this one
Scandinaviour Posted April 21, 2018 Posted April 21, 2018 Hi, If you wanna visit Liseberg just for riding Valkyria, you should wait until the late part of the Summer season. Unfortunately I don't have any opening date to give you, but if you visit us in June you will probably be disappointed...
lond Posted April 29, 2018 Posted April 29, 2018 Some photos from the first day of the summer season @ Liseberg: Season pass from 1926. Fee 10SEK !! Landeriet is undergoing some refurbish It will get the original colors from the 1700. The new Wave Swinger New coat of paint on the building Will continue soon.... Lot of crossings over water The station building of Valkyria A room with a view Spare parts to Balder Cheery blossom and Balder /// Marcus
Nrthwnd Posted April 29, 2018 Posted April 29, 2018 Great shots, there! Valkyria looks to be definitely dominating the middle (almost) of the park. And that station - looks lovely enough to live in, lol! Thanks for sharing all of the photos, Marcus.
odie Posted April 30, 2018 Posted April 30, 2018 Hi all, Was wondering if anyone on the forum plans on being at the park this coming Saturday, May 5th? I will be over in Denmark for a work trip and was thinking of heading to Liseberg for the first time. I don't mind going by myself, but figured I would see if anyone else on here is around to join me/show me around the park?
mjollner Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 Not so much news, But I read on the news today that builder NCC landed the 230 million $ contract to build the new part of Liseberg. A: a new parking garage ( Expected to be done by summer 2019) B: A 30 000 m2 " adventure/ experience hotel" with 450 rooms. The hotel is supposedly themed to Eastern India and it's history trading with Gotherburg. ( hopefully finished by 2021). C: A 18 000 m2 year around waterpark which will be among he biggest in Sweden. ( Finished sometime between 2021 and 2023). Link to NCC https://www.ncc.group/media/pressrelease/f51c5e8d17e4fb55/ncc-to-build-liseberg’s-new-water-park-and-hotel/ And Lisebergs statement, but I could only find it in Swedish. http://www.mynewsdesk.com/se/liseberg/pressreleases/ncc-bygger-lisebergs-nya-vattenpark-och-hotell-2508105
lond Posted May 21, 2018 Posted May 21, 2018 The tunnel of Valkyria is now complete, so they can continue with the track!! /// Marcus
dcxs Posted May 21, 2018 Posted May 21, 2018 Sweet! Shame it wont open until July at the earliest according to Facebook, I thought my visting date in June would be 100% safe
viking86 Posted May 21, 2018 Author Posted May 21, 2018 Good thing I haven't planned anything around Liseberg so far, I'll probably do a late summer/early autumn trip to check out Valkyria! (and the rest of what is one of my absolute favorite parks... )
cookiex Posted May 21, 2018 Posted May 21, 2018 The tunnel of Valkyria is now complete, so they can continue with the track!! /// Marcus Hope to see the drop begin taking shape soon.
Scandinaviour Posted May 23, 2018 Posted May 23, 2018 Just gonna leave these here for you... Train no 2 is out in the sun Drop Drop
viking86 Posted May 23, 2018 Author Posted May 23, 2018 Awesome to see the first drop going up! Definitely very excited to ride this thing!
X2coasterfreak Posted May 23, 2018 Posted May 23, 2018 That drop is looking great! I really think this is shaping up to be the best dive machine (layout-wise) out there. Fingers crossed it's open when I visit in a month! (If not I guess I'll just have to ride Balder and Helix over and over )
viking86 Posted May 23, 2018 Author Posted May 23, 2018 (If not I guess I'll just have to ride Balder and Helix over and over ) Don't forget to give Lisebergbanan some love as well, it's a great ride! (and a capacity monster)

lond Posted May 27, 2018 Posted May 27, 2018 Here comes a photo update, we start with photos from last weeks garden fair @ Liseberg and then continues with photos from yesterday: 20180520 No tracks yet Still waiting The station is almost complete Laundry line 20180526 In its new original colors New part added Weeeeeee I hope we will fit between the supports Trains Really big crane Soon you can't rest here.... /// Marcus
cookiex Posted May 27, 2018 Posted May 27, 2018 Quite a few oddly placed supports. It's a very cramped spot for a B&M dive to begin with.
JordyC Posted May 29, 2018 Posted May 29, 2018 And now the track of Valkyria is complete Awesome news!!
