Warner Bros. Movie World overview

Warner Bros. Movie World at a glance

A Hollywood-themed park on Australia's Gold Coast.

Movie World is the anchor of the Gold Coast theme-park strip and the only Warner Bros. park in the southern hemisphere.

DC Rivals HyperCoaster is the tallest and fastest in Australia, the Superman Escape launch coaster hits 100 km/h in two seconds, and Scooby-Doo Spooky Coaster remains a well-regarded indoor dark ride. Daily stunt shows, a Main Street parade and a Star Parade of costumed DC and Looney Tunes characters give it more show content than its size suggests.

BEST TIME TO VISIT · Spring

Our editor's recommendation

Worth a day, but build it into a wider trip rather than flying in for it. It ranks #40 of the 50 parks we score, at 6.9/10 with 24 rides and attractions and a typical visit of about 6 hours. Tickets run $70–$81 a day. The strongest reasons to go are its big-ticket thrill rides. The honest catch: tickets are expensive for what you get, and queues can be long. Best time to visit: Spring.
