    MEDIA RELEASE Friday 16 September 2016 NEW-LOOK TIGER ISLAND OPENS AT DREAMWORLD THIS SUNDAY 18/9 Following a $7million transformation, the first stage of Dreamworld’s all-new Tiger Island will open to theme park guests from this Sunday (18/9). Officially launching the exhibit today, Queensland Minster for Tourism and Major Events, the Honourable Kate Jones MP, welcomed the new-look Tiger Island as a world-class, iconic attraction for Queensland. Ms Jones said Dreamworld’s new Tiger Island was a major new tourism drawcard for the Gold Coast. “This is a world class animal exhibit providing animal conservation through responsible tourism,” she said. “I congratulate Dreamworld for delivering on their vision combining tiger conservation and tourism development. This exhibit will attract more visitors to Dreamworld and the Gold Coast, supporting jobs and the local tourism economy.” Gold Coast Deputy Mayor, Councillor Donna Gates said the new Tiger Island would further position the city as a leading holiday destination that is constantly evolving with fresh new product to attract more visitors and keep them coming back again and again. Dreamworld CEO Craig Davidson said the reinvigoration of Tiger Island would ensure the park retained its leading role in the global race to save tigers in the wild. “The redevelopment of Tiger Island is a significant milestone for Dreamworld and a wonderful gift for our tigers and their wild cousins as we celebrate the 21st anniversary of Tiger Island,” said Mr Davidson. “Turning the spotlight on conservation, visitors to this amazing new conservation precinct will be able to feel closer to our tigers than ever before, encouraging empathy and educating guests on the plight of tigers in the wild.
