Following a $7million transformation, the first stage of Dreamworld’s all-new Tiger Island is now open.

The exhibit was officially launched by Queensland Minister for Tourism and Major Events, the Honourable Kate Jones MP, and she welcomed the new-look Tiger Island as a world-class, iconic attraction for Queensland.

Ms Jones said Dreamworld’s new Tiger Island was a major new tourism drawcard for the Gold Coast. “This is a world class animal exhibit providing animal conservation through responsible tourism,” she said.

The reinvigoration of Tiger Island would ensure the park retained its leading role in the global race to save tigers in the wild. Turning the spotlight on conservation, visitors to this amazing new conservation precinct will be able to feel closer to tigers than ever before, encouraging empathy and educating guests on the plight of tigers in the wild.
