THEME PARKS, ZOOS AND RESORTS
We support theme parks, zoos and resorts with planning, design and realization of their dreams and goals. Whether this is a single ride development within an existing theme, a fully immersive darkride, a new animal exhibit or a full themed area masterplan. We can design the best guest experience that matches the available budget and amazes the specific target audience.
Theme parks, zoos and resorts have one thing in common: guests visit these venues typically for at least a full day. Whilst designing and planning experiences for these venues, we take this fact into consideration. For example, this means that a kids playground will always feature a coffee place for parents to relax and unwind while their kids play bringing in extra F&B expenditure. Or that every ride and experience has great picturesque vantage points for guests to gaze at these structures, creating valuable dwell time which extends the length of stay.

Speed Zone
To continue the Festivalization rebranding after the Main Street and Wilderness, Walibi Holland created the Speed Zone area as third to transform.

Tornado Springs
For their 2020 season Paultons Park will introduce the new "Tornado Springs" themed land.
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.
