More than $157,000 will be donated to the families of four people killed in October's Dreamworld ride tragedy after a much slower than usual reopening weekend.
Ardent Leisure CEO Deborah Thomas said more than 6000 guests attended the opening two days, during which the park promised to donate $25 from each ticket sold to a Red Cross appeal.

According to the company's 2016 financial year annual report, Dreamworld, Whitewater World and the SkyPoint Observation Deck on the Gold Coast Q1 tower attracted about 2.4 million visitors, or almost 6650 a day.
In 2015, Skypoint attracted about half a million and Dreamworld itself saw 1.8 million through the gates, according to other Ardent Leisure figures. This would correspond to a little less than 5000 visitors a day for Dreamworld alone.
Across two days, $157,225 was raised.
"We will continue to offer our support to the families who lost their loved ones," Ms Thomas said in a statement.
"Our talented Dreamworld team was ready to reopen our doors and was touched by the warmth and kindness shown by so many of our visitors this weekend."
The park was noticeably quiet for the opening with many key attractions, including all nine major thrill rides, closed.
