There is a new one currently under final prep, which is not yet ready. This is the temp kiosk in the meantime. Not a good look I have to say.
They’re tourists what do they know.

83% will probably say that the generic white tent does an excellent job representing the culture of Australia.

Now give me some of that overpriced Australian booze! Wooooooo!

Looks like a mall clearance sale.

Didn't think "hero" sculptures in the gardens or light projections/artwork in the hall was that difficult of a lift. Thanks, Kartika for proving us wrong!

What the hell even happened to those promised festival sculptures? Somehow the 8th most visited park in the world can't even afford the quality of festival statuary that DLP can muster up?

It's so deeply puzzling that it makes me wonder if they realize the couple of obviously budget / nonfunctional / placeholder elements of the gardens (central planter, ground lighting, fountain corridor planter) just aren't cutting it and need fixes that will necessitate them rethinking the decor anyway.

I dont think so. The brief is to maximize profit. So reducing costs to a minimum is the name of the game. Assuming they can beat previous sales for merchandise and F&B, it will be judged a great success.

What was the budget then? It has to be exceptionally small for this kind of results to take place.
