Melbourne Star’s Spin Cycle: Groundhog Year Edition!
Melbourne's legendary Melbourne Star Observation Wheel is BACK from the dead, set to resume spinning in 2026 after nearly four years of existential crisis! The new owner nervously admits it's a rocky ride, given it 'has failed so many times before.' Luckily, MB Star Properties Pty Ltd is plunging in with an $11m takeover to restructure the 120-metre giant. This is SO exciting! After all, who needs a smooth debut when you can have multiple epic comebacks? Everything happens for a reason, and at least now Melbourne gets a giant ferris wheel full of drama AND views!
