Project Description
Volcans Sacrés, AV development
Vulcania, 2013
Vulcania is an educational theme park located in the volcano chain Chîne des Puys. Here visitors can learn about the science of volcanoes in a surprising, entertaining and interactive environment. One of the attraction within the park is Volcan Sacrés, for which Leisure Expert Group has developed the technology and show control under assignment of Jora Vision. The attraction takes guests on a journey through different scenes to show the legends of the volcanoes of the world. In every scene the legends are presented in an educational and attractive way due to the implementation of sound, lighting, video and special effects.

Show Control
Since the scenes need to start at the exact timing, the EFT vehicles had to be integrated within the show control system. We developed a stable show control system within every scene which is not linked to time, but is linked to the system of the ride. Each vehicle is recognized in every scene which only starts when arrived in position.

Land of Legends
Land of Legends is a unique new themed area at Bobbejaanland with a completely new coaster, yet it is also an upgrade of some existing rides to the current thematic standards within the European theme park industry. The area shows the potential of taking a birdseye view and think outside the scope of the new ride itself and then explore the possibility to upgrade other rides in the park as well, in order to create a brand new themed area. Having worked with Movie Park before on ‘Walking Dead®: Breakout’ and ‘Excalibur: Secrets of the Dark Forest’, we were asked to help with the redevelopment of a distant corner in Nickland.
