Pulled from the Coasterforce Forums via user Jonsson:
  • "In an interview with Dagens Nyheter (major Swedish newspaper) the CEO of Parks & Resorts, Christer Fogelmark, stated that they are in talks with several manufacturers regarding the coaster. He also stated that it's supposed to include a "world's first".
  • He also said the expansion is fully financed and planned to open in 2028. The building permits submitted now are for the perimeter buildings, which will be the first to be built.
  • The theme for the whole area will be the Stockholm exhibition of 1897 during which a 100 meter long large hall with displays of the latest machinery was situated on the same spot as Gröna Lund now will expand.
Interesting that they're still in talks regarding the coaster. The concept art is definitely the Vekoma Airtime Trebuchet, but maybe that changes?

People are throwing out “what about the tilt coaster for energylandia” for a potential other option.
 
For those of you wondering the coaster—it sounds like it’s the Vekoma Airtime Trebuchet model.
 
Might be worth splitting off into its own thread, I'll throw it here in the meantime.

It appears the large Vekoma thrill coaster in 2028 has been paused, and now we're expecting two new rides in 2027: a new indoor dark ride and a Gerstlauer Airtime Coaster (named Fenix) to replace Jetline!

Technically it'll be 3 new rides for next year, as the existing bobsled coaster Vilda Musen will be significantly reworked to structurally tie into this new coaster.
 
Full docs attached below if anyone would like them, no imagery yet. Courtesy of the CoasterForce thread.

This is a win for the park and also such an oddity, because this is still going to be a very compact space and Mecalodon is anything but. Building tall with a low to the ground multilaunch will be interesting, especially because they can't really pull out the vertical launch card on this one.

2027 Announcement tomorrow at 4am Eastern.

Once again I will reiterate that the expansion and big Vekoma have been put on ice, as Jetline happened and then a bunch of other rides and structures simultaneously reached end of life. What's been happening in the last few seasons is a big house-cleaning effort to bring the existing park back up to speed.

Currently we are expecting up to four attractions next year;
  • A rebuilt Vildare Musen with new supports and mild profiling changes.
  • A brand new intertwining Gerstlauer Airtime Coaster.
  • A trackless dark ride using the space underneath the two coasters.
  • A new or heavily refurbished Breakdance indoors.
This is what the site for the latter three looks like right now. Those are indeed coaster support anchors;

Well we got confirmation of Gröna Lund's 2027 dark ride: Score.


Is it just me, or does the 3-across seating make this look like the first Multi-Dimension Mover? Given Gröna Lund and Tivoli's history with Intamin, I wouldn't be surprised.

I don't know how much stock I'd put in to an obviously AI generated thing.
I don't think it's AI generated, not going to lie.

The park also released concept art that I don't think is AI generated either. It looks consistent with the style and quality of other Jora Vision concept art (who is working on this dark ride).

Again, we can see the show featuring the 3 across, row 2 seating configuration.

Do we know if the big Vekoma will still eventually happen?
