In Australia, Dreamworld and WhiteWater World closed their doors today. A statement issued at the end of last week read: “As a direct result of the global COVID-19 situation, and the Government’s most recently announced measures regarding social distancing, including restrictions on non-essential indoor and mass gatherings, the Board of Ardent Leisure has made the decision to temporarily cease operating Dreamworld and WhiteWater World, effective from Monday 23 March 2020.”

The Board said that it had not been notified of any confirmed cases of Coronavirus (COVID-19) at its properties, but that it would continue to monitor and follow advice from Government Health Authorities.
