I’m surprised it wasn’t re-themed to Frozen.Has there been any talk about Disney's 2 Water parks? Love them both, but they need a refresh (especially Blizzard Beach.)

Is there actually demand for a third water park?
There's room to expand both if there's a capacity issue.
With Volcano Bay now open, there might be “demand” for a more exciting water park I guess.
Good point. Volcano bay has another 5 acres to expand but I think it's done after that. It has limited capacity.
When do the 2018 attendance figures come out? Typhoon, Blizzard and Aquatica all took a hit in 2017 with Volcano Bay.
Park | % Change | 2018 | 2017 |
Typhoon Lagoon | 5% | 2,271,100 | 2,163,000 |
Blizzard Beach | 3% | 2,003,000 | 1,945,000 |
Volcano Bay | 15% | 1,725,000 | 1,500,000 |
Aquatica | 8.5% | 1,556,000 | 1,434,000 |
Being discussed here:So the 2018 figures are out:

I didn't realize you had linked to the discussion thread. To discuss about the thread. In another thread. Unrelated to the discussion.Is this a joke?

Sorry.
Apologies - this thread is moderately inactive when it comes to discussion, and I hadn't thought to read back and find more context. Apologies.Not really.
If you just scroll up and read, there was an ongoing discussion about demand for a 3rd waterpark and how Volcano Bay affected attendance and even when the 2018 report would come out.
So when the new report came out, I linked to the new thread but with the pertinent information for this thread.

This is part of an entire Margaritaville complex that has housing, condo type accommodations, shopping, dining, a hotel and then the water park.Not sure if the water park discussion should stay here or if a mod wants to separate it out.
Saw the article on the front page about a waterpark at Margaritaville about to open up.

Island H2O Live! water park opening for preview days starting June 5
The new waterpark at Margaritaville Resort Orlando offers over 20 different experiences, including a wave pool, kids’ area, group raft rides, slides and lazy river.www.wdwmagic.com
Aside from the fact that it's a horrible name, does anyone know details of the dize or capacity of Island H2O Live?
I guess it answers the question about whether 4 waterparks is enough.

Trying to be hip and trendy.I'm not sure I understand what this waterpark's horrible naming and theming have to do with Margaritaville.
