Joining me on today's episode of Coaster Conversations is Park President of Six Flags Qiddiya City Brian Machamer who discusses his 30+ year experience of working at theme parks around the globe and how Six Flags Qiddiya City will redefine what we all have come to expect from the word 'Theme Park'.
This insightful interview dives into Brian's background in the industry along with how he came to work on the Six Flags Qiddiya City Project, we dive into schematics and project planning for the theme park and the AquArabia water park in addition to how this particular Six Flags park will be much different than the rest of the Six Flags portfolio and how the merger with Cedar Fair has affected the process as a whole.
It's been a pleasure hosting these Six Flags Qiddiya City interviews, thanks to Brian and the Qiddiya team for making this happen!
I hope you enjoy this Six Flags Qiddiya City interview! A MASSIVE scoop for our little channel.
