The Park also improved its restaurant facilities and continued to increase the number of rides, with the addition of the Tibidabo Express, Alaska, The Mystery Castle, Aeromagic, The Boats, The Hurricane; The Gold Mine, etc, and features such as the Puppet Hall, the Scary walk (now called Krüeger Hotel); and annual festivals such as "A summer without frontiers"; "The song of peace"; etc. And two new mascots appeared: Tibi and Dabo. Despite all this, at the end of the 90s the company was suffering from a long financial and management crisis which put the future of the Park of Barcelona in danger, and even meant that it stayed closed during certain times of the year. The company finally went bankrupt in 1999, which ironically marked the centenary of the opening of the Park.
