The Plopsa Group has announced plans to invest 25 million euros into Holiday Park, one of Germany’s most popular water and theme parks.
The investment will include the implementation of three new attractions for Holiday Park by 2022.
Holiday Park was acquired by Plopsa in 2010 and has since grown in visitor numbers from 400,000 to 650 – 700,000 a year.
Holiday Park is part of a group of amusement sites in Europe that include waterparks, outdoor parks and indoor parks.
One of the attractions in the pipeline at the German amusement venue is known as Dino Splash, which already features at other Plopsa Group sites. This fun water ride involves visitors riding over slides in boats, passing dinosaurs and volcanic mountains on the way.
Dino Splash is the first of the three investments and is expected to be installed by 2020. The Dino Splash project is costing five million euros.
Plopsa’s CEO, Steve Van den Kerkhof, announced the investment at the official opening of Holiday Indoor, the 5,000 square metre undercover area recently opened at the Holiday Park amusement site.
2021 will see the arrival of the Splash Battle and Disk’O Coaster rides. Splash Battle will involve riders sailing down a canal on boats, firing water guns at targets and fellow sailors.
Disk’O Coaster comprises of a large, round disc, which visitors sit on and are swung back and forth over a track, in both clockwise and anti-clockwise directions.
