This gives me Rookburgh vibes. Colorful theming, coaster track wherever you look... I'm sure it will be awesome

[@verybighomer]

That was my first thought, too. "That area could also fit well into Phantasialand"

[@assemblyrequired7342]

It definitely has a steampunk look to it. I was also thinking that it wouldn't look too far out of place in Disneyland Paris, if they ever wanted to provide Space Mountain a companion coaster.

[@awkwardturtle7973]

Vekoma quickly becoming the manufacturer to watch

[@drdewott9154]

Holy moly, Gröna Lund has been COOKING! That Vekoma looks incredible. Frankly I wish we could get even a bit of this creativity at Tivoli Gardens. We havent had a major new ride in over a decade, our last new roller coaster was 20 years ago, and the only new ones since have been exact replicas of the older ones they replaced.

[@YesItsEpic]

I love roller coaster tycoon 3

[@maxhagenauer24]

Same, honestly it's usually better than planet coaster.

[@GoudLoodje]

@@maxhagenauer24definitely because rct3 doesn’t explode my pc lol

[@maxhagenauer24]

@@GoudLoodje Do you either have a massive park with a ton of stuff or a bad PC? Because most people can run planet coaster fine.

[@maxhagenauer24]

@@youtubekilledtrustedflaggi9274 Honesty, sometimes rct3 manages to have more realistic physics than planet coaster.

[@Howlingburd19]

@@maxhagenauer24I think with custom scenery RCT3 is better but without it Planet Coaster is better (but of course RCT3 is an amazing game with or without it)

[@FAFO4wisdom]

A vekoma Spagetti Bowl!?!? yes please! This looks like a lot of fun.

[@elevatoralarmcoasterandarc1214]

I like that.

[@O_SimardCasanova]

The already impressive come back of Vekoma is getting even more impressive year after year. What a redemption!

[@alphawinnergx9127]

I really hope their Jetline coaster will reopen, this would make a great top 3 with monster and their new vekoma !

[@ATLSloan]

Absolutely love Grona Lund!! Easily the best park in Sweden and excited to see such a large and detailed expansion. Also, that park is the best in Europe to get to, from, and around on a Bird/Lime e-scooter

[@StamfordBridge]

You like this park more than Liseberg?

[@kevinkaplan]

I worked there before but haven’t in a few years but I might need to go back, get that job back and investigate this more, I’M SO EXCITED 😱 Finally Gröna Lund can expand!

[@Lazarus1095]

I love parks that compress many things into small areas.

[@andori_AB]

Congrats on a quater million subscribers! You absolutly deserve it!

[@thesean3194]

Wow. Like..wow I would make a trip there for this park.

[@Rollercoaster_breath]

the flat ride in the near center is 100% a Zaperela GRYPHON just look at the center and the arms!! I am soooo exited to see the construction updates on this because it looks so compact!

[@gregg5958]

That looks absolutely spectacular and a great addition to the park.

[@NathanPallas]

I really hope this goes through planning! I have a friend who lives in Stockholm so I get to visit this park once again.

[@maxhagenauer24]

Gröna Lung is such a beautiful park that blows my mind with how compact everything is, this new addition looks absolutely awesome.

[@thomaseriksson3182]

Wow! My home park🇸🇪✌️

[@benwinegarner4797]

Oh man that looks fantastic. I know it's just concept art but I love the theme and color palette they're going with.

[@jonny-b4954]

Looks awesome. I didn't know they had any extra room, interesting they had that little open area there.

[@mattiasbanker]

Great vid. You almost got everything right. :)

[@colestaal5686]

I completely forgot about the expansion and the new concept art is really cool. The coaster looks like a lot of fun. The first flat you mentioned looks like a Zamperla Gryphon. The green oval roof building could be for bumper cars. The catwalk is throwing me off though.

[@kay_sou]

Grona Lund looks like Micro Park from RCT if it was made IRL.

[@sam06pr]

That roller coaster looks insane. I hope I hope they go through with the plans

[@joostverra9130]

Definitely would expect this to take longer than 2 years

[@kirillsadventure]

Where is the intro?

[@VRGUY_583]

IDK?

[@handledav]

why does there need to be

[@meesta11]

It was a good run. I'm amazed that it lasted as long as it did. Lol.

[@CoasterHorizons]

the coaster looks like something i’d make in planet coaster and i’m here for it

[@smaz9]

Hope Worlds Of Fun or one of the smaller Cedar Fair parks get one of these, this could be a real game-changer if they managed to get their hands on this. Go Vekoma!

[@whoknew2273]

Great view if you live across the road

[@JAXXNCREATED]

The RetroFuturistic theme is so good, I hope this expansion doesn't get changed again cause this art looks S tier!

[@Danrarbc]

That old Vekoma concept really looks a LOT like this.

[@djstoplichtofficial]

The track in that trebuchet launch teaser from last year perfectly lines up with this concept art, I think this will be very representative of the final launch speed of the actual thing.

[@CancelHappiness]

Did you forget the intro?

[@TylerEaves]

The green mystery building looks like a ride to me. Perhaps Dodgems or some sort of Waltzer or Whip?

[@Jondoe18702]

Looks amazing! More coasting through Europe?

[@verybighomer]

The coaster looks great, but the overall concept is so beautiful and fits so well. If they keep 80% of the concept art it will still be phantastic.

[@joecandish3923]

This looks awesome love new gen Vekoma Lech Coaster, F.L.Y, Fonix, Formula, Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind and Hals uber Kopf. I would prefer before this project starts to fix up both Twister and clarify whats happening with Jetline whether its done or not.

[@BobaBrickProductions]

I really want another Vekoma Fly coaster, the first one was so good.

[@homeboy_roy1570]

Beautiful

[@just-dashin]

wow

[@assemblyrequired7342]

I'm really digging the theme that they are going with. It's almost like somewhere between Victorian/Steampunk, and the Future-That-Never-Was. Also, who else wishes that most parks were designed this way, where they treat every square inch like the prime real estate it is? Very efficient! I'm kind of hoping that it is a quick launch into what I can best describe as a somersault loop. Unless the restraints/seats are really comfortable (not a bad thing for any ride anyways), hanging upside down with minimal acceleration can be VERY uncomfortable for ANY amount of time. Learned that the hard way one time on an Inverter fair ride. Nearly crushed my balls! NEVER AGAIN!!!

[@william._.sandberg]

I’m still curious for what their plans are for Jetline. If they removed it and built a new roller coaster perhaps an intamin blitz. Then Gröna Lund might get their ”signature” ride.

[@LucasNinoMusic]

This coaster looks world class, i'm predicting around 2026/27 it'll open.

[@GeorgFKa]

On the first floor of the building at 3:25 we can actually see two objects that may be some kind of pods or gondolas - so there might even be another flat ride!? Maybe someling like a modern take on the whip? (Totally wild guess obvsl.)

[@CoasterStudios]

Good catch! Perhaps a flat ride on the lower level and something else on the upper level?

[@kevinkaplan]

I’m from Stockholm and I’ve worked at Gröna Lund and I’m pretty sure they are going to bring back the bumper cars! When they removed the old ones several years back, there was a lot of backlash and I think they’re meaning to put them back in. So my guess is they’re coming back and seem to be amazingly themed🙌🏻

[@stephanczuray4408]

Maby ax coaster ?

[@leo00421]

Did i spot a vekoma junior boomerang there aswell??

[@overlookers]

Please give timestamps. That green track coming of the tunnel by the Vekoma's station is the monorail

[@leo00421]

@@overlookers ah your right my bad😅

[@overbanked]

What is gonna happen to the SBNO Jetline coaster?

[@CoasterStudios]

Gröna Lund is still investigating the cause of the accident and will not determine its fate until they know why it happened.

[@burthhollebeke6386]

Ride it in the first two years after opening.. after that it'll be another Vekoma back-breaker...

[@lindathureson2573]

Thank you for posting this! Grateful that this is in my capital. I’ll be happy to come with you guys when it’s finished😇🙌🏻🎢🎠

[@arturobianco848]

2027 would be perfect need to go back to scandinavia anyway and thats the first year i really get time for it. if its 2026 that would even be better most of the really busy crowds should be gone then in 2027. But the coaster looks a lot better then abyssus can't wait to try it out.

[@CoasterRabbit]

Under the balcony it looks like bumper cars

[@marcussorenson3380]

I'm gonna guess 2030 at best when it's gonna open since they want everything to look complete and not half done

[@strudelninja]

You mean square feet, not feet (when giving the area measurements).

Correct

That concept art looks like AI to me. Maybe it isn´t meant as definitive plans but more like trying to capture the vibe. I mean that the coaster and other rides may or may not be anything like on these concept pictures

[@nivel1891]

They've confirmed it is hand drawn.

[@agent5tm902]

As a Gröna Lund fanboy and ex ride-operator at the park, my exitment and antecipation for this amazing expansion is thru the roof!! I can't wait for this to be done and I want to be one of the first to step foot in this new land!! Wish I could have a time machine and go ride this freaking roller, it's the icon that Gröna Lund always needed! (not to mention how big of an icon Monster is to me) But to sumon my comment up, I'm crying happy tears because it will happen and I'm thankful for this video 🎢🎡 Edit: and yet again I'm left abandoned behind the dumpsters behind Gröna lund. I'm not an attention seeker, I'm just like the other commenters...Just feels sad not getting likes or any replies 😭
