Banksy Has Created A Twisted Take On An Amusement Park That Will Host Musical Acts

Controversial and elusive graffiti artist Banksy is at it again, but this time he’s gone above and beyond illustrating social commentary on some buildings. He’s actually created his own large-scale amusement park, titled “Dismaland.” The dark, twisted, Bansky-esque installation is located in an abandoned lot in Weston-super-Mare, UK and is being called a “family theme park unsuitable for children”.

The drawing of a map that has been posted to the “Dismaland” website shows that there are 18 attractions total that put a spin on classic theme park rides. There’s a children’s slide affixed to a armor-plated riot control vehicle, a portrait artist who will only draw the back of your head, and “an oil caliphate themed crazy golf course,” according to the Dismaland website.

The park also offers attractions such as Grim Reaper-themed bumper cars, a book burning fire pit, and a killer whale jumping out of a toilet.

“I guess you’d say it’s a theme park whose big theme is ‘theme parks should have bigger themes’,” said Banksy.

In addition, musical acts will play every Friday night while the park is open including Run the Jewels and Pussy Riot.
