The evocative and mysterious artist known as Banksy is lampooning Disneyland with his very own large-scale “bemusement park.” Dismaland opened this morning in Weston-super-Mare, UK, featuring an array of attractions such as Water Cannon Creek, Guerilla Island, Grim Reaper-themed bumper cars, and a book burning fire pit.
Additionally, Dismaland will stage live musical performances every Friday night. The schedule includes Massive Attack, Run the Jewels, Savages, and more.
Dismaland will be open until September 27th. Tickets can be reserved through the park’s website.

Banksy’s “family theme park unsuitable for small children” has opened on the Weston-super-Mare seafront. It features migrant boats, dead princesses and Banksy’s trademark dark humour. Krishnan Guru-Murthy went to see if Dismaland lives up to its gloomy name.
