Why is the Scooby Doo ride closed?

Scooby-Doo Spooky Coaster has been closed for refurbishments The ride is expected to reopen some time in 2024. Scooby Doo Spooky Coaster opened in 2002, replacing Warner Bros. Classics and The Great Gremlins Invasion-dark ride (1991-2001).



The Scooby-Doo Spooky Coaster at Warner Bros. Movie World in Australia has recently undergone a major multi-million-dollar refurbishment and upgrade. The ride was closed for an extended period to implement a complete overhaul of its technical systems, which had become aged after over 20 years of operation. In 2026, the ride features a new magnetic braking system, a completely replaced track section for a much smoother experience, and upgraded vertical lift components. The closure was also used to enhance the immersive theming and special effects inside the "spooky" castle, ensuring the ride meets modern safety standards while preserving its classic "ghost train" charm. If the ride is currently showing as closed on the park's daily maintenance schedule, it is likely for routine safety checks or minor technical adjustments following its major reopening, as the park remains committed to the ride's longevity as a top-tier family favorite.
