Services
Masterplanning
If you are looking into developing a completely new theme park, extend your theme park with a new and exciting area, look into the opportunities of lodging, we always start with a masterplan that is feasible for you.
From this masterplan we continue into the various design phases for your theme park, themed area or resort and ensure your initial concept becomes reality.
Tornado Springs
For their 2021 season Paultons Park will introduce the new "Tornado Springs" themed land.
Themed Area Design
If you are operating an existing park and are looking to extend the park with a new themed area, we can plan and design the complete thematic experience.
We can also take a look at an existing themed area and design a fitting overlay to present a new overall experience to your guests, using a mixture of new and existing rides.
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.
Attraction & Ride Design
We provide attraction and ride design for existing parks that are looking to attract more guests with new investments and upgrades to their venue.
It is also possible to re-design an existing ride or attraction with a new theme or updated show control systems. This is a great options to upgrade an older ride to a new ride experience on a lower budget.
Wild Asia
Throughout different stages Leisure Expert Group developed the Wild Asia Area at Djurs Sommerland where guests can be immersed into a place full of myths and legends hidden deep down in the wild Jungle of Asia.
Dark Ride Design
For those who are looking into bringing an exciting storytelling experience into their venues, we can design a complete dark ride experience.
This can be part of a masterplan and themed area but is just as powerful of an individual immersive experience.
