UK-based Simworx, a leading supplier of media based dynamic simulation attractions, has installed a new 5D special effects cinema at Tayto Park in County Meath, Ireland, for the start of the 2015 season.

The new attraction, housed in a brand new building, is the only 5D cinema in Ireland and features 48 seats and a three degrees of freedom motion base, providing left, right, forwards and backwards motion.

A range of special effects are also included to truly immerse visitors in the experience and include water spray, air blasts, leg ticklers, bubbles and special effects lighting. A Christie digital projection system is also utilised.

Tayto Park will initially run two different films in the cinema, providing a choice of five or ten minute movies. These will be the Lost World, a comic, fast-paced dinosaur themed adventure, and Wild West Mine Ride, an action-packed ride which sees a sheriff and his trusty steed chasing a ruthless bank robber through the wild west.

The new 5D cinema is one of many new attractions being added to Tayto Park in 2015.

Commenting on its installation, general manager Charles Coyle said: "We chose to add a 5D cinema because we were looking for a ride that would be enjoyed by the whole family and could be refreshed year on year with a new movie. It is in a new area of the park that has just opened, in a purpose-built building.

"We chose Simworx as we felt they offered the best value for money and also had the best quality product. We also took advice from other people in the industry and Simworx was highly recommended.

"When we met with them we found they were a perfect fit for us. They have been efficient and professional throughout and have delivered a world class product."

Simworx managing director, Terry Monkton, added: "The park is developing rapidly and has invested in many new attractions this year so I am very happy that Simworx has been able to contribute to this exciting growth."
