YouTube is used for engaging the China market by displaying videos of their ‘Kung Fu Panda: Land of Awesomeness’. Dreamworld records their Chinese guests mastering their Kung Fu Moves, racing the all-new Skadoosh Bumper cars, meeting Kung Fu Panda, and conquering the Pandomonium. By being selective in platform use and attractions advertised, they can target this audience to visit and capture the exciting, spontaneous, moments of Dreamworld’s happiness. Instagram promotion is aimed at the Indian market with the central focus on Dreamworld’s ‘Big 9’ thrill rides and the Tiger Island experience. They use Instagram to capture guests in the moment, ‘closed eyes, scruffy hair and holding on like their lives depending on it’.

One of their best posts was the 2014 seasonal campaign of winter, where guests were offered significantly discounted tickets, attracting an increased intake of guests. Social media platforms play a huge role in allowing the business the opportunity for feedback from visitors. Guests inform Dreamworld of what they love, what they want more of and where the attractions can be
