AVENGER
Text & Photos: Norman Vogt
Last year, Spanish showman Bañuls parted with
his Fabbri Propeller “Booster”. New owner is
showman Alexis Coquoz from Carling, France.
Shortly after the transports had arrived at the
storage yard in Carling, overhauling of the
construction began. As there are many “Booster”
Propellers currently on tour, the French showman
decided to rename and redesign the construction,
built 10 years ago. The redesigning was inspired by
the blockbuster “Avenger”. Coquoz then presented
his new purchase, equipped with LEDs and a new
station area, at the Foire Attractive de Printemps in
Nancy, where the “Avenger” and Kopp’s “Booster
Maxxx” had made their French première. This year,
the “Avenger” Propeller will appear at, among other
venues, Metz, Strasbourg, Mulhouse, Epinal,
Senas, Firminy, Romans sur Isére and Bourg-en-
Bresse. The ride has ground measurements of 15 x
8 metres and a height of about 40 metres. Moreover,
Coquoz will continue to tour the “Pirates Show”
Walkthrough construction.

HIP HOP FLY
Text & Photos: Norman Vogt
After the showman Romano Lagerin had sold the
giant chain ride “Luxor” to Andreas Bauer from
Zuchwil, Switzerland, he presented his newly
purchased “Hip Hop Fly” Afterburner at the Barbarossamarkt
in Gelnhausen in early March.
In 2000, the ride was built by KMG for the Wendler-Deinert
firm from Unna, which successfully operated the
construction up until the end of the 2008 season and
sold it to the Detmold showman Jürgen Noack in March
2009. The ride’s most striking feature is its opulent
lighting system, providing quite an impression with an
exhilarating light show after subndown. This season,
Romano Lagerin will present the swing at, among other
venues, the Frankfurt Wäldchestag in Bad Vilbel, Darmstadt,
Zerbst and at the Frankfurt Dippemess. It will not
be long, before additional lighingt effects will further enhance
the swing’s conspicuous illumination. ■

DIE TOTAL VERRÜCKTE JAGDHÜTTE
Text & Photos: Nils Benthien
At the Ochtrup Spring Market, showman Carsten
Westendorf from Bünde presented his redesigned
“Die total verrückte Jagdhütte” shooting
gallery built by the Stork firm in 1973.
The new front was made by the Kreienborg firm from
Visbek near Vechta, and later painted by the
Elfering firm. The electrical system was completely
renewed and LED lights were installed
for its lighting array. For shooting,
customers can choose between air and laser rifles.
Apart from shooting at stars, customers are also
invited to prove their accuracy in firing in wild game
hunting, as well as shooting at pyramids and
flowers. The shooting gallery has a front length of 14
metres, is 2.5 metres deep and some 5.5 metres
high. In addition to the shooting gallery Carsten
Westendorf also operates several sweets booths;
among others, the “Zuckerpalast” and the “Alter
Zuckerspeicher”.

It is the second season on tour with the “Mäusestadt”,
built by Dietz, for Johanna Brambach and
her daughter Sharleen.
For environmental reasons, the attraction has now
been equipped with power-saving long-life LED
lights. Preparations are already underway for the redesign
of the large mouse figure in the front area,
which will be enthroned on a large cheese cube
instead of a barrel in the future.
Wheelchair users can easily access the attraction by
the aid of a lift in the entrance area. Inside the show
and funhouse attraction visitors will encounter several
hundred mice. Apart from Würzburg, this year’s
tour schedule includes venues in Fulda, Bergisch-
Gladbach, Bad Arolsen, Rodenkirchen, and Oldenburg.

GEISTERHOTEL
Text & Photo:
Helmut Bresler
The former “Mammut-Höhle”, after touring as
“Geistertempel” for the past few years, is now
“history”. The visual appearance of the ride has
been completely revamped and, according to a
draft of plans from Heinz Opitz, it will be reborn
as “Das Geisterhotel” and will celebrate its première
at the Hamburg Sommerdom.
The attraction is, however, still operated by Willy Fellerhoff.
Most of the rebuilding will be carried out by
the Mack firm from Waldkirch; and there is indeed a
great deal of work, as the large ride with a 30-metre
front can be only built up section by section. Everything
is to be renewed, including the large name sign,
which will offer every effect technically feasible today,
on a modern LED system. Merely the framework will
be retained, and with it the statics. Further to this,
even during the course of this season, the Aztec-style
passenger gondolas from the former ride will be
changed into travelling hotel beds, where passengers
don't have to lie down, but rather can sit up
straight as they ride through the attraction.
The effects and figures are
modernised or newly purchased.
On several levels, the ride through
the “Geisterhotel” will go past rooms
that will reveal their secrets and provide
a creepy atmosphere. Two major
novelties are planned for the outdoor
area, the “Dienstmädchen”, or
chambermaid and the “page”, both
some three metres tall, talking to
each other and enticing the visitors
to step into the Geisterhotel. With this
new ride being completely redesigned,
Willy Fellerhoff will resume
touring regularly. Relocating the ride
requires nine transport vehicles. ■

NEW ILLUMINATION
Text & Photos:
Helmut Bresler
Immediately after the Erlangen Bergkirchweih,
Ewald Schneider began with the reconstruction
work and the installation of new lighting effects on
his largest travelling Freefall Tower in the world.
Die Lichtleisten mit den klassischen Kappenbirnen am
The light strips with classic capped bulbs were removed
from the tower and replaced by modern LED
lights. The latest light technology came from the Klaus
Kaires firm from Neumünster and will be presented at
the Düsseldorf Rheinwiese for the first time. According
to the owner, the amount invested was in excess of
150,000. As a result, the ascent and the free fall of the
gondola are accompanied by even more spectacular
and more impressive lighting effects from the lighting
system. LED lights offer many advantages, such as
lower heat generation, longer life, multi-colour illumination
and considerable energy reduction. All in all, it
is not only a noticeable visual enhancement of the ride,
but also an environmentally responsible use of energy.
Another special feature is the Methuselah-fare, granting
passengers from the age of 60 a 50 percent reduction.
Christina Schneider’s idea has earned much
praise, and is very well received.

BAPTISM AT “ALTE LANDHAUS”
Text & Photo:
Uwe Holzmann
For many decades now the “Alte Landhaus” from
the Bötticher family from Lehrte has consistently
been a popular venue for festive family celebrations
on the Schützenplatz during the Volksfest
events.
For the festive baptism of Anthony Ahrend on 11 th April,
his parents Corinna and Walter-Oliver Ahrend had
invited their large family and many friends and colleagues,
during this year’s spring festival. The church
service in which Anthony, supported by his older
brother Jimmy and in the presence of his godparents
Katja Armbrecht and Raymond Armbrecht, was
admitted into the Christian Church, was conducted by
showman pastor Bräuchle from Stuttgart. After the
baptism, Anthony Ahrend’s special day was celebrated
with a lunch buffet and a coffee table at Bötticher’s
“Altem Landhaus”.

TROUBLE IN ERLANGEN
Text & Photo: Helmut Bresler
The Berg event was nothing short of a disaster –
cold and soaking wet, fewer visitors than expected,
and poor financial results. The placing of
Kaiser’s “Cyber Space” ride caused intense discussions,
and the problem has not yet been legally
clarified.
The ride was built up on a former beer tent site on
private property. Living directly next to it is a family that
seems to hate the Berg event. Having accepted a
compensatory payment, in addition to the stand fee,
they refrained from obtaining a restraining order that
would have forced the ride to stand still, due to the
violation of their “airspace” and feeling severely
disturbed by ride noises and objects lost by the passengers.
According to the Kaiser family, they have
never experienced anything like this, and needed a
couple of days to relax after the war of nerves. It is
hard to fathom why this type of attraction was approved
for this site, as a similar attraction placed in
this location had already caused fierce discussions
two years ago.

DISCO PARTY
Half of the paybox is out of
an old VW-Bully
Text & Photos: Norman Vogt
The Dutch showman Frank Melissen from Guerschild
in the north of Holland celebrated a highly
successful première with his new Walkthrough
construction, “Disco Party”, at the Zaanenlaan
Fair in Haarlem. On the opening day, many a showman
presented him with numerous floral arrangements,
greeting cards and good luck coins.
The motto of the construction, in which visitors are
taken on a trip back to the days of “flower-power”, the
legendary peace emblem and a shrill and colourful
disco world, is “Back to the 70s”. A walk along the
course with multi-spectral spectacles is accompanied
with music from the disco era. The corridors
were decorated with numerous fluorescent symbols,
effectively illuminated by black light. Spotlights,
disco balls, and fluorescent sticks providing the
course with beautiful light refracted by the special
spectacles. Melissen came up with the idea a year
ago. As several attractions of this type are already
being successfully toured throughout the neighbouring
countries, he decided to present an attraction like
this at Dutch events. During the winter break, the
“Mäusestadt” was rebuilt as the “Disco Party” by the
owner himself. While the new front was colourfully
and appealingly designed by the Seifert firm, the
name sign and the entire lighting system were built
by the Multi Light firm. The construction, with ground
measurements of 12 x 7 metres and a height of 8.50
metres, has been built on just one trailer. The paybox,
built out of one half of an old VW camper van has to
be transported separately though. This year, the trip
into the disco world will be presented, among other
venues, in Uden, Best, Weert, Eindhoven, and Alkmaar.

ULTIMATE
NEW PRODUCTS
The 43 rd “Freak Out”-
example from KMG
Text & Photos: Norman Vogt
A couple of weeks ago, Dutch showman Marinus
de Weijer from Emmerich, located in the northwest
of North-Rhine Westphalia, became the
proud owner of the brand new Freak Out
“Ultimate”, with which he celebrated a successful
première at the fair in the Dutch town of Sneek.
It has already been the 43 rd Freak Out example built
by the ride manufacturer KMG. Dark blue and yellow
are the predominant colours of the attraction; the
name sign - mounted in front of the wave and on the
lighting pillars - provides the only contrast. The showman
deliberately chose this type of swing due to its
ride pattern, and for the new purchase he has parted
with his “Techno Dance” ride, which he has successfully
toured throughout the Netherlands for many
years. The new owner will continue to tour this ride in
Holland. This year, the “Ultimate” will be presented at,
among other venues, the German fair events in Duisburg-Beeck
and Mettmann. The ride has ground
measurements of 14.5 x 11 metres, and a flight height
of 25 metres.

DAS BAGGERSPIEL
Text & Photos: Norman Vogt
At the Maimarkt in Landau, showman Lothar
Honecker from Mutterstadt celebrated the première
of his new attraction “Das Baggerspiel”.
It took the owner, who also installed the lighting with
LED-lamps himself, two months to build the wagon,
boasting a length of 8 metres and a height of 4 metres.
The Bohn firm, contracted for the design of the front,
immortalized a bulldozer with a number of coins and
comic-style faces, according to the showman’s
wishes. The coin sliding game, still popular despite
having been familiar to fairground visitors for many
decades, remains very much a major feature as the
“Baggerspiel”. All in all, nine “Royal Banker Jubilee”
arcade machines are available. Lothar Honecker
plans to present the Baggerspiel mainly on the fairgrounds
in Rhineland-Palatinate.

MEGA EXTREM
Text & Photos: Norman Vogt
For several months, the young French showman
Maxime Leraitre from Caen has been touring with
the somersault ride “Mega Extrem”.
It is the second swing of the “Inversion” type, built by
the Dutch ride manufacturer KMG, slated to tour
throughout France in the immediate future. The first example
was delivered to Norman Bruch, and is successfully
operated under the name of “No Limit”. Having
quickly got used to the technology and the intricacies
of controlling his ride, Leraitre is able to provide his
passengers with varied ride experiences accompanied
by artful announcements over the microphone. In the
evening hours, spotlights and fog complement the
spectacular illumination of the attraction. Too bad that
the name sign has not been equipped with capped
bulbs, thereby making a very gloomy impression after
sundown. This season the “Mega Extrem” will be presented
at, among other venues, Bayeux, Cherbourg,
and St.-Generieve-des-Bois near Paris.

Würzburg Kiliani

The Kiliani Volksfest is back in the première league
of large fairground events. From 5 th to 21 st July,
more than 80 attractions will entice the public to the
Talavera fairground. Last year, the 135,000-resident
city of Würzburg, one of the largest cities in
Bavaria, hit the record-breaking figure of more than
1 million visitors for the first time.

On another note, it is time to say farewell to Mayor Georg Rosenthal, tapping
the keg for the last time this year, and Alexander Hoffmann, who will
run for the German Bundestag this autumn. But first, it is the pleasurable
matter of celebrating the 17-day Kiliani Volksfest!
Heiner Distel (photo), who has held this post ever since the Kiliani Volksfest
1988 will celebrate his 25th anniversary this year. With their dodgem
track, always keeping up with the latest trends, the Distel family has been
among the regular Kiliani participants for some 55 years, and know the
region and its people intimately. This is a welcome occasion to look back
on the last quarter of a century with this interview.
What does a showman spokesman do?
In the beginning, it was a clear-cut task, namely organising a wine
tasting with colleagues, preparing the closing fireworks display on the
last Monday of the event, and the hock meal at the press conference halfway
through the event.
While this is still part of the job today, the main tasks are now maintaining
and enhancing contacts with media representatives, as well as the planning
and realisation of advertising measures. But I don’t complain about
my work.
How did you become a showman spokesman?
Good question. I didn’t offer to do the job; I was recommended for
it, and confirmed in this post at every Kiliani meeting of participating
showmen.
Who was your predecessor?
Hans Dom, who did a very good job. He held this post for 35 years
and stepped in for the Kiliani showmen’s concerns with a lot of commitment.
It is and remains an honorary post without any payment, and I think
that’s OK.

Michael Hahn is one of the
“supporting pillars” of the
event with his large festival tent
and to show good negotiation skills.
I also got many good tips from my father, Heinz. The
best advice was never to interfere in admission
processes. Whenever the city administration wanted
to know my opinion on a topic, I told them. This
approach was very successful – looking back today,
it was good for both the post and for me.
How was the Kiliani Volksfest when you took
over the post? How was business?
It was the good old days and the Volksfest was
a classic “self-seller”. Having a Kiliani contract was a
great stroke of luck and a guarantee of good financial
results; not to forget the Americans, who also
contributed to the success.
You also hold this post in Schweinfurt, some
50 km from Würzburg. The same issues and
problems?
Many issues are the same – maintaining and increasing
the event’s appeal. But there are also differences,
beginning with the history that goes back
much further in Würzburg and with the Kiliani “roots”,
the religious importance of which can be felt and
experienced to this day.
When and why did the event move to the
Mainwiesen?
This topic required a great deal of patience. The
Talavera area was not only rebuilt into a huge car park
for the Würzburg state garden show, but the infrastructure
required for a fairground was installed at the
same time. For three years, the fair was held on the
Mainwiesen fairground, very popular with the colleagues,
with its large number of trees and a pleasant
atmosphere.

Two fireworks displays –
for the start and for the finale
are in the programme
It was my task to prevent moving back to the Talavera
fairground. This was impossible and not negotiable for
the Würzburg authorities. They had invested a lot of
money into the Talavera and it was very hard work for
me to convince my colleagues.
You have seen many male and one female Lord
Mayor. Who was the most Volksfest-friendly?
A very difficult question. I consider the Würzburg
veteran, Mayor Adolf Bauer, as an extreme Volksfest
fan. Jürgen Weber did not have any reservations
about the showman industry, Pia Beckmann has
masterfully used Kiliani as a stage, and Georg
Rosenthal has always fulfilled his official duties at
Kiliani – due to his advanced age for the last time this
year.
Why did public popularity of the Kiliani
substantially decrease some 10 years ago?
In retrospect, there are a number of reasons.
Firstly, the withdrawal of the Americans, the large
number of wine festivals in the villages, the Hofgartenfest,
the Weinfest at Stein – and so on.
They all became stronger every year with an increasing
number of visitors and grew steadily. It was no
longer trendy to go to Kiliani. With the large number
of events, turnover increased for some and decreased
for others.
Unfortunately, the Kiliani Volksfest suffered too many
losses in both visitor attendance and turnover. On top
of all this, many participants of many years, oldestablished
enterprises, removed Kiliani from their
tour schedule.
Which measures were taken?

Happy waves during the festival parade from the Lord Mayor
Georg Rosenthal (l.) as well as the festival publican family Carmen
and Peter Müller-Reichart (r.)
The strategic move was the engagement of a new, local patron with
a new concept – the Stadl-Wirt. It was planned as a secret project for a
long time and its realisation caused a great furore and dealt Kiliani a new
hand of cards. Today I think it broke up old structures, so that new
dynamics could develop.
Which names were included?
Surprisingly enough, not the name of the Stadl-Wirt, but the name of
the former person responsible from the city authorities, Horst Waibel, as
well as the Müller-Reichart family, shortly before its 50th Kiliani anniversary.
They were taken aback by the development, were not able to – in
their own words – “react to them”, and unexpectedly made their withdrawal,
albeit very much to the sounds of drums and trumpets. That was
quite emotional.
Lets’s go on in history with the municipal fairground directors –
with Franz Hohm and Anny Musenbichler…
Two legends, without a doubt. If I remember correctly, Hohm retired
in 1984 and I can very well recall many talks he had with my father. Anny
Musenbichler took over and we worked together for some years. A
woman full of energy and resolute perseverance.
What happened next?
Politics changed and with it also the actors. Horst Waibel came, and
having already been responsible for the Spring Festival for some years,
he also took over responsibility for the Kiliani. He had a mind of his own.
Cooperation was not always easy, and persuading him in discussions
difficult, but his era saw the approval of the Stadl-Wirt and with it the
emergence of new dimensions - without a doubt, his biggest contribution
to Kiliani. The event experienced the emergence of new support. All of a
sudden it was trendy again to go to the Volksfest, clad in local costume.
Suddenly, Kiliani was “in” again.
New luck with a new patron?

A few more words on Carmen and Peter Müller-Reichart who I worked
with effectively for a long time. I would be pleased to see both of them
at the Kiliani. Five years have passed since the change, and I hope the
wounds have healed.
As to your question: New patron, new ideas and a new concept. The
commitment of the Würzburg Hofbräu pays off and Michael Hahn, the
new patron, does a good job. It’s a good combination.
What will happen when Alexander Hoffmann goes into politics
shortly?
Das höchste suspended
Looping Karussell der Welt
As municipal head official he has considerably pushed Kiliani
because it is more than just an administrative job. And with Johann Obermeier
and Mark Laudenbacher, there is a really strong team, such as I
have rarely met before. Our cooperation has always been, and still is,
great fun. Alexander Hoffmann is running for the German Bundestag;
that’s a big loss for Kiliani, but a substantial success for the showman
industry in politics.
Apropos Stadlwirt – what will happen now?
We are talking about the “Almhütte” under the management of
Ehrenfried Müller, well-known in Würzburg. He provides a professional
restaurant with “Distelhäuser Brauerei” as a partner, and will build up an
alpine chalet such as Würzburg has never seen before, featuring a large
glass wall offering a view both to the inside and the outside. I think it’s a
fantastic feature.

Record-breaking visitor numbers 2012 – one million visitors.
A marketing gag?
No – the truth and no estimate by rule of thumb. Kiliani can once
again live up to its former success and is back in the Première League
of large fairgrounds. But there is no time to rest on our laurels.
What about the city’s identification with its event?
I’d say it is stronger and more effective than ever. And that’s mainly
due to the organising city authorities undertaking intensive and professional
advertising campaigns. As I said before, they are putting their heart
and soul into the event.
Who will be tapping the keg next year?
That has not been decided yet - I don’t know. Georg Rosenthal goes
into retirement for reasons of age and I naturally wish for a true Kiliani fan
as successor.

In addition to your job as showman spokesman, you are an
active member in the advertising association. What does it do?
A lot, and if we were able to add to our tight budget, we would do
even more. Heinz Fieseler is in charge of finances and I am responsible
for public relations. Again close contact with the organiser, the city of
Würzburg, is very important to plan events and carry them out as efficiently
as possible. In practice, there will be additional huge posters, constituting
an effective advertising medium.

What kind of public comes to Kiliani today?
Problem visitors?
No – not at all. Kiliani has a peaceful, happily
celebrating public. This is clearly proved by the
statistics from the Kiliani police during the last few years.
How is the Würzburg Frühlingsfest?
Which one is the best?
They are three different stories, difficult to
compare – the Spring Festival, Kiliani and the Christmas
Market, with its rustic flamed spiced punch. My commitment
is mainly to the Kiliani Volksfest and the Christmas
Market; there are certainly also many contacts relating
to the large Volksfest here in Lower Franconia.
So-so; it depends on the weather. With the beginning
of the season long before Easter, the showmen have
to cope with snow and freezing temperatures too
often. In 2016, we will have to build up in February so
that a postponement is “on the horizon” and is currently
being discussed.
There are three events in Würzburg.
What will Kiliani look like in 2020?
It won’t die – I am convinced! Kiliani has a tradition
which will live on and support the event. This year we
celebrate Kiliani for the 983rd time; that’s a true feat! It
will remain the Würzburg event with the highest turnover
and visitor attendance – if it is organized by people
who love and are committed to further develop it. ■

Düsseldorf (12 th to 21 th July)
So far, business was quite poor for most of the
showmen this season. Snow, low temperatures,
and continuous rain prevented satisfactory
financial results. For approved showmen operations,
the largest fair on the Rhine is one of the
season's top events. Once again, more than 4
million visitors are expected at the Schützen and
Heimatfest (12 th to 21 st July), organised by the St.
Sebastianus Schützenverein Düsseldorf 1316.
The fair, with the most beautiful panoramic view in
Germany, built up between the Rhein-Knie-Bridge
and the Oberkassel Bridge, is to set new standards
once again. Fair architect Thomas König, has once
again made a number of changes in the layout of
the fairground, and was able to choose as many as
four novelties from the applications received this
year, including a double presentation, likely to be
subject to intensive discussion. The Schützen and
Volksfest event on the Düsseldorf Rheinwiese is
voluntarily organised by the St. Sebastianus Schützenverein
Düsseldorf 1316 every year; quite a
challenge considering the size of the event and the
ensuing tasks. Due to stricter safety regulations,
environment, child, and non-smoker protection, the
Schützenverein has now come to its time and
financial limits. All this can only be accomplished
by the coordinated distribution of the tasks within
the tightly organised Schützenverein. Unlike Volksfest
events organised by full-time city or community
personnel, dealing with nothing else but local fair
events, the Schützen have a full-time job organising
the fair “on the side”. For this reason, one should
not make a lot of fuss about approval contracts
being sent out uncomfortably late. After all, rejections
are sent out early, in order to afford planning
reliability. This year, about 320 showmen were
pleased to receive approval for the largest fair on
the Rhine.
Openings of the Fair and the Schützenfest
The opening of the Schützen and Heimatfest will
again comprise two parts. While the fair will be
opened on Friday, the Schützenfest begins on
Saturday. That is not ideal, as the fair and the Schützenfest
belong together, especially at the Rheinwiese
event. Events so closely interlinked should
also be opened together. The fair begins at 2 p.m.
on Friday, and the official opening takes place at 4

to tradition, the debutantes at the Rheinwiesen
fair are welcomed first with floral bouquets. This
done, the opening ceremonies will be held in the
“Tiroler Dorf”, or “Tyrolean Village” for the first time.
Flags accompanied by music will proceed into the
festively decorated Schützenhalle, where the opening
speeches will be given. After the tapping of the
keg and cannon salutes, the Schützen will leave the

Four Novelties for Düsseldorf and a
Double Presentation
The attractions presented at the Düsseldorf Rheinwiesen
Fair will form an impressive skyline this year.
Let us start our tour of the fairground at the Oberkassel
Bridge, where the “Wildwasserbahn 3”
(Löwenthal) will be retaining its ideal site. Further
along the Radschlägerstraße on the dike side in the
direction of the Rhein-Knie-Bridge, placed directly
adjacent to the dike (outer side) in the order
given, will be the “Kristallpalast” (Sturm), Fellerhoff’s
“Geisterstadt”, Fuhrmann’s Chain Ride and
the “Lach+Freu-Haus” (Distel), as well as the “Spinning
Racer” (Bruch) and the “Rotor” (Pluschies).
With the mega chain ride “Alex Airport” (Goetzke)
clearly visible from afar, the bay behind the
“Schwarzwald-Christel”, not exactly popular with
the showmen, will accommodate a real crowd
puller this time. Fischer’s “Toboggan” will retain its
usual site, the “Selbstfahrer” from Müller presented
once again will now be built up with its side wall in
Radschlägerstraße, and the classic “Looping the
Loop” (von Olnhausen) will follow at the exit of the
bay. In the direction of the southern exit point (taxi
rank under the Rhein-Knie-Bridge) visitors will encounter
Fackler’s go-kart track “Rallye Monte
Carlo”, with the “Bayerischen Schwenkbraterei”
(Uhse) built up facing it on the adjacent new site.
And the landmark of the Düsseldorf Rheinwiesen
Fair the “Bellevue” Ferris Wheel (Bruch) will also be
placed on this site.
The “Große Geisterbahn” (Schütze) and the “Wilde
Maus” (Göbel) can be found on Schützenstraße
once again. Back to the starting point of our tour,
the following attractions will be built up in the inner
circle. Holding the top end site, the “Skater” ride
from the Kaiser family will whirl its passengers

through the skies this year. With the “Südseewellen”
(Barth) moving to the former site of the “Show der
Sensationen” on Rheinstraße, and the “Breakdance”
from William Bruch taking its site, the secret
of the double presentation can now be disclosed.
Also approved for the Rheinwiese was the “Breakdance
No. 1” (Kinzler), which will be built up at the
entrance to the coaster bay. Back on Radschlägerstraße,
where “Nessy” (Markmann) will be awaiting
the visitors, the “Diamond” dodgem track from
Hartkopf/Osselmann will retain its usual site. With
the “Flasher” (Ahrend), the first novelty for the Düsseldorf
Rheinwiesen event will also be presented in
this section and significantly change the skyline of
the fair. The “Alpenwelt” connecting Radschlägerstraße
and Rheinstraße will be built up with only a
large round stage in the middle and joined by
beverage outlets, gastronomic operations, and
sales booths this year. It will be followed by the
“Amazonas” (Agtsch) appearing on the Rhine for
the second time. Kaiser’s water ride “Rio Rapidos”
will once again be placed in the straightened bay,
however with its side wall facing the street this time.
Directly in front of the Diebels tent, Krameyer’s “Big
Monster” will make its rounds, and the “Raupenbahn”
from Steiger/Buchholz will return to its usual
site in front of the Ferris Wheel. Out of respect for
the complaining residents living in Oberkassel,
Radschlägerstraße will be a rather quieter section
of the largest fair on the Rhine. Further along Rheinstraße
within the inner circle, the “Venezianische
Pferdekarussell” (Langenberg) will hold the corner
site. While the “Mäusecircus” from Lemoine will be
a novelty, the “Schnauferl” (Vespermann/Hartkopf)
and Schäfer’s “Voodoo Jumper” will retain their
usual sites. The bay will be towered over by the
novelty “City-Skyliner” (Skyliner GmbH). The tower
with a rotating gondola provides visitors with a
beautiful view at a maximum height of 72 metres.
The “Golden Greats” dodgem (Kropp) will be available
at the exit of the bay, and behind the entrance
to the Alpenwelt, the “Big Bamboo” (Hempen) will
once again await the visitors. Placed in the inside
area will be the “Power Tower 2” (Schneider), the
aforementioned “Südseewellen”, and the “Skater”
to the rear. Starting at the Schützen-tent on the bank
of the Rhine, visitors will encounter the mega swing
“Konga” (Küchenmeister), the “Breakdance No. 1”
(Kinzler), the “Wellenflug” (Hanstein), and for the
second time the “Olympia-Looping” (Barth). The
sites of Howey’s “Happy Sailor”, the “Fight Club”
(Häsler/Schultz) and the “Alpina Bahn” (Bruch) will
remain unchanged. Further along, there will be the
“Shake & Roll” (Schäfer), Blume’s “Dämonium”, and
the “Circus Circus” (Bruch/Gründler). Directly in
front of the water ride, visitors will find the fourth

SPECIAL
Life at full pace at the
“Larges fair on the Rhine”
novelty for Düsseldorf, the “Krumm & Schief Bau”
from Hartmann.
This list is not exhaustive and subject to changes.
Due to relocations the overall image will be changed
in several fairground sections, with the novelties
“Flasher” and “City Skyliner” being the most significant
changes. The strict non-smoker protection
act legally effective since 1st May will also affect the
Düsseldorf Rheinwiesen event, as smoking in the
beer tents is no longer allowed. This decision was
a hard blow for the local breweries, which will now
arrange for smoking terraces in the outdoor areas
of their beer tents. While the Füchschen tent will
maintain its new site, the Bavarian beer garden from
Hölzgen/Traber will now move from the southern
entrance to Radschlägerstraße. The absolute highlight
of the Rheinwiesenkirmes is and remains the
fireworks display, which will transform the Düsseldorf
sky into a sea of flames in the evening of 19 th
July. The pyrotechnical specialists from the Wuppertal
Nico firm will conjure up the latest effects in
the Düsseldorf night sky. Not only are there no parking
spaces in the immediate vicinity of the fairground,
the Düsseldorf city authorities are also
relentlessly towing away illegally parked cars.
Those coming by car should either park at the
exhibition grounds and take the shuttle bus to the
fairground, or park in one of the parking facilities in
the medieval section of the city on the other Rhine
bank, and take the Rhine ferry.

ANNAKIRMES IN DÜREN
Text: Michael Petersen Photo: Heiko Schimanzik
This year from 27 th July to 4 th August, the city in the North Eifel will
proudly celebrate the anniversary “375 years Annakirmes”.
There will be festivities to mark the anniversary of the largest Volksfest
in the region with the programme running from 24 th May to 18 th August.
The beginning of the Düren anniversary was heralded by an “Organ Weekend”
(from 24 th to 26 th May), when a host of large fairground organs and
small barrel organs played their music in the Düren city centre to get the
public attuned to anniversary fair beginning on 27 th July.
Moreover, old and rare exhibits from the colourful fairground world have
been presented in the exhibition “Die Kunst der Schausteller – 375 Jahre
Annakirmes” in the Leopold-Hoesch-Museum since 9 th June. Open right
up until 18 th August, the well- worth-seeing exhibition is an impressive documentation
of life on tour and the tradition of the Annakirmes, from market
to high-tech fair event - the festival through the ages. In addition, a historic
fair will be built up in front of the museum from 28 th to 7 th July, with a horse
carousel, show booth, pillar dodgem track, chair-o-plane and an old
nostalgic Ferris Wheel, recalling and bringing back to the present the good
old fairground days. The long festival procession with a number of groups
on foot, marching bands, and festival wagons held on 28 th July may well
be another highlight. Up until the time of going to press, the precise route
of the procession had not been fixed. For further information on the Annakirmes
and the generous programme: www.annakirmes.de
The fair event evolved from a colourful market around the Annakirche
church, officially documented for the first time in 1638. In 1892, the event
was held on today’s Annakirmes-Platz for the first time, where it went on
to develop successfully over the years. Due to the Second World War, the
fair event did not take place from 1940 to 1946. In 1966, the fairground
was extended to some 50,000 square metres with changed thoroughfares.
For some 375 years now, the fair is the highlight in the city’s event calendar.
Today, the number of people visiting the fairground is ten times the
number of Düren residents within one week. This year’s anniversary fair
will present an imposing skyline. The top attraction will be the “City Sky
Liner” (Skyliner GmbH), boasting an incredible height of 81 metres and a
ride height of 72 metres according to the manufacturer! The transportable
viewing tower with rotating visitor cabin will proved a magnificent panoramic
view across the Düren region. The “Gladiator” from Kriek with a height
of 65 metres will also make a first-time appearance in Düren. Moreover,
Goetzke’s “Rocket” and the giant “Artistico” swing will also take their passengers
up into the sky. The selection of towering attractions will end with

the “Europa Rad” (Kipp). This year, as many as three track rides will come
to the banks of the River Rur. With Bruch’s “Alpinabahn”, it was possible
at long last to engage a large family coaster once again. The “Wilde Maus”
from Kinzler, and “Willy der Wurm” complete the trio of track rides. The funhouse,
ghost ride and show booth sector will be represented by “Schloss
Dracula”, “Aqua Labyrinth” and “Pirates Adventure” this time. Further highly
popular attractions presented will be the “Top Spin” from Bausch, the
“Autoskooter” dodgem track from Loosen and Grass, and the “Rallye
Monte Carlo” Go-Kart Track, along with Schleifer’s “Fahrt ins Paradies”,
which has evolved into an indispensable cult ride at the Annakirmes within
just a couple of years. Further attractions enjoying cult status in Düren
are Markmann’s “Octopussy” and Kinzler’s “Breakdance No. 1”. They will
be joined by the “Beach Party” Musikexpress (Milz) and the Wave-Swinger
(Barth/Eberhard), also highly popular with the Düren public. The cornucopia
of attractions presented at the anniversary fair in Düren will end with
the “Flip Fly” Looping Swing from Claus and Eckl’s “Techno- Power”. The
extensive entertainment contingent will truly live up to the worthy occasion,
even though it may well prove to be too much of a good thing. Naturally,
the additional highlights will be accompanied by the traditional supporting
programme. There are still more than enough fans of the indispensable
Cherry Stone Spitting Competition. On 31 st July and 1 st August, the
older generation will celebrate inside the Anna festival tent, and the Rheinische
Abend on 31 st July will once again be dedicated to the motto
“Carnival in Düren”. On 30 th July, the designated Family Day, considerably
reduced prices will entice the public to the Annakirmes. Two fireworks
displays held on 27 th July and 2 nd August will change the Düren sky into a
sea of flames, resulting in thousands of shouts of “aah and ooh” from the
audience.

GOSLAR
Text & Photos:
Uwe Holzmann
From 28 th June to 7 th July 2013, visitors to the largest Volksfest and
Schützenfest event in the region of the ancient imperial city of Goslar
in the Harz Uplands, will be able to experience a great deal of Schützen
tradition, surges of adrenaline, wind in their hair, and a lot of fun
with friends and families.
The traditional Schützen procession, accompanied by music and the
citizen parade of the privilegierten Schützengesellschaft von 1220, proceeding
through the medieval city centre to the fairground and attracting
hundreds of spectators every year, will mark the beginning of the event.
True to the motto "Da kannst du was erleben", or “here it's all fun”, visitors
will enjoy speedy rides, an ample selection of snack booths and beverage
outlets offering delicious fairground classics, as well as the pot and
bric-a-brac market. In addition to classic ride attractions, such as the
“Krake” from Markmann, enjoying cult status in Goslar, visitors will also
find the “Break-Dance No.2” from
Dreher & Vespermann, the highly
popular “Jaguar-Express” from
Ahrend, the dodgem track from
Vorlop, and the romantic Ferris
Wheel from Wilhelm built up in front
of the setting of the Harz Uplands.
Furthermore, visitors will once
again encounter many fast rides
and several novelties, such as the
“Hexentanz” from Markmann - just
right for a Volksfest in the Harz Uplands
due to its theme - and also
the “Berg & Tal-Achterbahn” from
Schneider, fitting perfectly in with
the overall concept of the largest
Uplands in Northern Germany.
Further popular guests in Goslar
are the “Frisbee” (Robrahn),
“Flash” (Weber), “Extrem” (Gebr.
Boos), “Take Off” (Ruppert) and
the unique “Air Gate” ride (Welte).
New this year will be the “Super-
Hopser” from Weihs, certainly providing
the visitors with a lot of fun.
Many attractions from the “fun
sector” will be presented as novelties
for Goslar this year. After a
break of many years, a large Ghost
Ride will once again be presented
on the Osterfeld fairground in the
form of the “Dämonium” from
Blume, which will certainly cause a
great furore and provide a creepy
atmosphere. Moreover, the brand
new “Traumgenerator” (Häsler &
Lemoine), a simulator, the twostorey
adventure Walkthrough
construction "Crazy Outback”
(Hofmann-Jehn) and the new
“Down Town” labyrinth (Lutz Hofmann)
will be available to the
visitors.
Apart from the “Piratenrutsche”
(Meyer), “Poseidon” water ride
(Heitmann-Schneider), and a wellassorted
range of kiddie rides,
such as the novelty “Willy der
Wurm” kiddie coaster (Roos), the
classic “Märchenland-Kinderverkehrsgarten”
(Risse) popular with
all children, and the large Continental
pick stands “Silbermine”
and “Spielhölle Hongkong” (Kellner),
a first class selection of
games booths, shooting galleries,
and pick up trolleys and an ample
choice of beverage outlets with
42

A LOOK FORWARD
“Airgate” from Welte
cosy beer gardens and many a snack and sweets
booth will leave nothing to be desired.
After a break of more than twenty years, visitors to the
Goslar Volksfest and Schützenfest event will once
again be offered a large beer tent. The “Bayern Festhalle”
from Traber-Hölzgen will not only present a daily
programme of live bands and party DJs providing lots
of fun and frolics, but also serve rustic specialities. An
ample music programme will round off special events,
such as the “Gentlemen Night”, and invites visitors to
a cosy get-together or company parties. In order to be
able to build up the “Bayern Festhalle”, the Osterfeld
fairground - steeply sloping in the centre - was raised
with gravel to create a new plane. The “Sie & Er”
consumer exhibition, usually held in this area, will not
be presented this year.
Every Friday at 11 p.m., the traditional fireworks display
will provide the fairground with a happy atmosphere,
and on Wednesday the Family Day will entice
the public to the fairground with reduced prices. Again
this year, visitors making ample use of the ride attractions
offered as well as families can look forward to a
special event and family card, available in advance,
including considerable reductions for a total of 24 ride
and Funhouse attractions. Another highlight will be a
backstage tour on Monday, organised by the “Schaustellerverband
Harz und Heide”,
that will provide an informative
and exciting look behind
the scenes of the Volksfest.
The two-hour tour –
tickets for which are raffled in
the Goslar press – will introduce
different operations and
provide exclusive insights into
the showman industry. ■

PREMIÈRE
Première in Enschede:
“Crash Test” from the
Hendriks/Hinzen firm
The Hendriks/Hinzen firm from
Apeldoorn presented its new
“Crash Test” coaster, an alternative
to the large number of
“rotating mice” on the fairgrounds
in Europe, for the first
time at the “Paaskirmes” in
Enschede in late March. The
coaster had already been announced
for 2012, but the manufacturer
- the French CeDeal
Rides firm from Samois – was
not able to meet the scheduled
completion date.

The rotating-mouse attractions are marketed
under the name of “Spinning Coaster Compact”.
They are smaller than the “Spinning Coaster
Standard”, already built up in the Netherlands and
without a track on the upper level. According to the
manufacturer, the coaster has ground measurements
of 32 x 19 metres, a height of 11 metres, and
a total track length of 310 metres. For a short time,
passengers are subjected to a maximum g-force of
3 g on the coaster, which is loaded on four vehicles.
Due to its small footprint, the smaller version of the

Six gondolas are
available to guests of all ages
“Spinning Coaster” is an attractive alternative for
Dutch events, often held in city centres. The tracks
of the coaster are painted in bright red, the
supports in yellow, and the six gondolas in silver.
Highly appealing is also the name sign, which is
illuminated by LEDs and neon effects. Several
decoration elements that were still missing at the
following venue in Hilversum are to be mounted
before long. The overall weight of the coaster
amounts to 70 tons, and the attraction is to be presented
at, among other venues, Valkenswaard,
Renesse, Rosmalen, Hoorn, Budel, Wijchen, Echt,
and once again in Enschede in late autumn this
year.

In the courtyard, I am welcomed by the first figures
from the former façade. “You can pack them and
take them with you immediately. Just pay at the exit,”
jokes Andreas Kunz, greeting me with a handshake,
firm and energetic. He notices my searching look and
laughs. “No, you won’t find anything out here. That’s
nothing but a car park and storage space. The secret
is inside the hall. Come with me,” he says, opening
the door. I go in with unabashed curiosity and I’m
flabbergasted. I hadn’t expected this! The three-level
ride is standing in the hall completely built up except
for the front above the top level sporting the future
name sign, due to lack of space. “It’s a tight fit,” quips
the boss, pointing out the advantages of working
independent of the weather.
Andreas Kunz is the owner of the “Geister-Schloss”
ghost ride that he is touring successfully – and he was
anxious to demonstrate his entrepreneurial skills and
take up a new challenge. He had been keen on the
large Fellerhoff ride, the largest and last transport-

able Ghost ride built by the Mack firm with its imposing
35 metre front. He had wanted to have the monster
for a long time, and had repeatedly negotiated
with Willy Fellerhoff. It had been built up for the last
time at Europa-Park from the Mack family on the occasion
of the Halloween-Festival of 2011, together
with the “Erdbeben” and the “Altweibermühle”, both
also under the ownership of the Fellerhoff family. For
some time both before and after that, the ride had not
been in operation, but was parked on a car park
where it was exposed to the weather. Andreas Kunz

emphasizes that he has come to know Willy Fellerhoff
better during the last few years and has found a true
friend. “It was a good cooperation and I have respect
for the achievements of his family, who used to
dominate the fairgrounds all over Germany and set
standards,” he explains. And he also knows that it is
always difficult for the seller to part with an attraction
owned by the family.
Looking Good Inside and Out
During the snowy winter, the ride was transported to
the Upper Palatinate by truck on 16 trailers or transport
vehicles - “under sometimes challenging circumstances,”
reveals Kunz; and one sees that he is
still happy that everything arrived undamaged. “The
base structure is solid and the iron is still in good condition.
It is treated and used again. The track with
heavy load floor segments as well as the entire
decoration and package, along with all the effects,
are completely renewed. The good old Ghost ride has
changed into a modern, futuristic adventure ride. The
ride will truly be something of an odyssey. “There will
be new lighting effects in the outdoor area, and the
inside of the ride will be certain to make the same
impact as the outside,” says Andreas Kunz, outlining
Redesigning work on the
front is already visible. Thomas

There’s still a long way
to go until the attraction is
finished
his strategy. He points out his cooperation with artists
from the film and television industry, as well as
specialists for sound and light technology involved in
his project. Asked what the venues of the ride will be,
he cautiously answers, “I will certainly not be able to
change the venue every Sunday. It remains to be
seen, and I think that I will present my new attraction
at well-chosen large events.”
Oktoberfest
At this point in time, he had not yet received the
Wiesn contract by mail, and he had had no contact
with the decision makers. However, a couple of days
after we spoke, the perfect surprise was received; the
contract for the Wiesn 2013. Site: Schaustellerstraße
– and thus within the main course of the event.
For the workers this means working at full speed. I
will be certain to return and write about the progress.
After a fascinating visit, another firm handshake from
Andreas and his father Alexander Kunz.
By the way, in current language, the term “Odyssey”
means a long journey reaching its destination only
after77 a number of adventures. It comes from the
epic by the Greek poet Homer, documented for the
first time in the 7 th century BCE.

HANNOVER
Deinert’s “Big Spin”
Text & Photo: Uwe Holzmann
The Frühlingsfest on the Hannover Schützenplatz
fairground opened on Easter Saturday, 30 th
March, and up until 21 st April visitors were able
to enjoy a large number of rides, many attractions
popular with both young and old, and a
varied party programme inside the “Festhalle
Ahrend” and the new party tent “Hanno-Hall”.
The showman operations built up in Hannover this
spring offered ample entertainment for everybody.
While kiddie rides and the Ferris Wheel, the “Große
Geisterbahn”, “Wellenflug” and a dodgem track represented
traditional entertainment for those revering
the classic programme from their childhood,
visitors seeking speedy rides got their money’s
worth in the “Salto Mortale”, “Commander”, “Big
Spin”, “Nightstyle”, “Break Dance”, “Magic”, and
the “Rock & Roller Coaster”. Moreover, attractions
such as the “Time Factory” and the “Kristallpalast”
provided visitors with both enchantment and bafflement,
and in the “Omni” they experienced sensory
delusion. The water ride “Manitus Spuren”, the
“Heiße Räder”, “Petersburger Schlittenfahrt” and
the “Crazy Outback”, which appeared in Hannover
for the first time and offered an adventure in Down
Under, rounded off the selection of attractions –
bringing the joys of spring to the Schützenplatz. As
usual, Wednesdays were the designated Family
Days providing discounts of up to 50 percent on all
ride fares and 25 percent at many other attractions,
as well as free special events such as kiddie makeup
events and Punch and Judy shows. The supporting
programme included a “Ladies Day” with
special offers for women on 18 th April, as well as
breath-taking fireworks displays on 5 th , 12 th , and 19 th
April.

Fairground with “Flasher”
Sax’n Anhalt in Wolfsburg
WOLFSBURG
Text & Photos: Uwe Holzmann
430,000 visitors, satisfied showmen, a happy
“Schützen Colonel”; all in all the 13-day 63 rd
Schützen and Volksfest in the Allerpark in the
Volkswagen city of Wolfsburg was highly
successful.
“Not even the cold weather kept the visitors from
enjoying the ride attractions,” said the “Schützen
Colonel”, obviously pleased. Peter Vorlop, the fairground
director who had put together the fairground,
was also satisfied. “It was a harmonious
and safe event, not least due to our own security
personnel”. However, the police are discussing a
new security concept as there were several days
(V.F.L. football match and demonstrations in May)
when they were short of manpower. “Most of the
showmen achieved good business results in Allerpark,
and there was an unusually high number of
visitors who came to the fairground a number of
times,” Vorlop added. “All in all, the weather was
fine - only the temperatures could have been a little
higher. While ice cream booths did not fare too well,
sweets and roasted almond booths benefited from
the weather”.
Moreover, the backstage tour organised by Matthias
Ters (Ters-Media Bremen/www.platzradio.com)
offered in Wolfsburg for the first time, was very
successful. The interesting tour provided a look
behind the scenes of the Ferris Wheel from Wilhelm,
the “Haunted Mansion” from Hinzen, “Black Hole”
from Schierenbeck, “Break Dance” from Welte, and
50

the “Jaguar-Express” from Konny Ahrend, and
finished off at the roasted almonds booth, where
Markus Meier not only demonstrated and skilfully
explained the manual roasting of almonds, but also
presented the participants with a sample of his
freshly roasted product.
Another special and successful highlight could be
experienced on the fairground on Ascension Day
(Father's Day). The showmen from the Braunschweig
“Schaustellerverbandes Harz und Heide”
(Showman Association Harz Uplands and Lüneburg
Heath) had spontaneously engaged the
fantastic show band “Sax'n Anhalt” from Magdeburg,
which presented its music show at various
attractions and provided a superb atmosphere on
the fairground.
The crowds repeatedly forming wherever the show
band played may well have made effective 'wordof-mouth'
advertising.

GELDERN
Text & Photo: Michael Petersen
From 18 th to 21 st May, Geldern once again wished its
guests “Vööl Glöcks in de Kermes!”, or “A happy
fair event!” in the colourful regional dialect. For the
Pentecost Fair, more than 160 showmen had built
up their attractions along the Ostwall stretches of
historic fortification and a small part of the Nordwall.
The traditional fair is one of the top events in
North-Rhine Westphalia. The attractive fair mile
once again offered many new features and a
successful layout without any major drawbacks.
The new schematic plan of the posters and flyers for
the Pentecost Fair needed some getting used to
though. Dominated by black, the new poster makes
quite a sinister impression. While there are certainly
more favourable colours for a Volksfest poster, it showed
at least the classic fairground motifs, a Ferris Wheel,
a chain ride, and a roller coaster. The poster was not
only dominated by the Geldern skyline but also by the
photo of a fireworks display. Moreover it gave the most
important information about the duration of the event as
well as its opening with a happy hour. The beginning of
the Geldern Pentecost Fair was heralded on Saturday
at 2 p.m. by the procession of marching bands, and
half an hour later, the event was opened by the Mayor.
In addition to the highly coveted free drinks, visitors
made ample resort to reduced fares, slashed by up to
a half during the Happy Hour. What happened in Geldern
during those 30 minutes was just incredible. Long
queues formed in front of all ride attractions and large
quantities of ride chips were bought, with adolescents
very cleverly dividing into groups, thus getting hold of
cheap ride chips for all ride attractions. Ride attractions
with a large seating capacity may easily cope with this
scheme, for others it meant a substantial reduction in
turnover. After all, the fares were once again considerably
reduced from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. on the last opening
day. Maybe it would be wise to reconsider the happy
hour in its current form. This year, the largest street fair
event in the Lower Rhine region scored well with a harmonious
occupancy. The rides on offer were familyfriendly
and spectacular. That is precisely the strength
of the Geldern Pentecost Fair, offering a new overall
image every year without waiving successful and
popular attractions. While the regular attractions at the
event included the “Highway No.1” dodgem track
(Schneider), Eul’s “Rock Express”, and the “Breakdance”
from Dreher / Vespermann, the “Roue Parisienne”
Ferris Wheel (Burghard/Kleuser) once again made
its rounds in Geldern according to a regular rotation
plan. With the “Air Crash” (Wingender) and the
“XXL” Swing (Denies/Kipp), another two highlights
visible from afar were built up on the Geldern Ostwall.
While Fischer’s “Toboggan”, allocated a quite
unfavourable site next to the XXL Swing, provided
a lot of fun and ebullient glee, Barth’s “Südseewellen”
and Zinnecker’s “Tornado” offered further
ride power. With the “Piraten-Fluss” (Heitmann/
Schneider) it was possible to engage an attractive
water ride once again, and two Funhouse constructions
rounded off the cornucopia of ride
attractions. Moreover, the large “Irrgarten” (Rasch)
and the “Ghost” adventure construction invited the
public to a lot of fun and amusing diversion. Why
several showmen in the concession stall section
were relocated from their traditional sites, may well
remain the secret of the organiser. The all in all very
successful Pentecost Fair, which remained untouched
by the forecast downpours, was closed by
a magnificent fireworks display.

Every year in early May and in early September
two fair events are held in Emsdetten. Both
events are organised by the Emsdetten city
authorities, under the management of fairground
director Helmut Frede and his deputy
Franz-Josef Beuntker.
From a large number of applications, some 100
showman operations were chosen for this year’s
May fair, held in the city centre from 3 rd to 5 th May.
Moreover, the fairground director successfully
coped with three cancellations received shortly
before the opening of the event. Built up on the car
park at the fire station were the Ghost Ride “Halloween”
(Rasch), the Miami “Cool-Fresh” (Jörgling),
and the chain ride from Derleh, built in 1934. The
sites in Buckhoffstraße were occupied by the
“Racing Cars” dodgem track from Tovar, Markmann’s
“Hexentanz”, the kiddie track ride “Truck-
Stop” (Hirsch), and a Jet Ride (Stippich). Moreover,
younger visitors were able to enjoy Arling’s nostalgic
Hennecke kiddie carousel from 1937 in Schulstraße,
as well as the fairytale carousel from Wegener,
Tovar’s kiddie ride, the “Night Style”
(Armbrecht) and Freiwald’s Twister were appealingly
placed in Frauenstraße. Presented at Brink
was the “Salto Mortale” (Langenberg & Gusowski),
and at Katthagen visitors encountered the kiddie
dodgem track “Little-Fantasy-Drive” (Wegener)
and the bungee-trampoline from Borghoff. Moreover,
Rathausplatz accommodated the dodgem
track “Formel 1” (Heitmann), the “Disco-Jet” (Heitmann),
the “Remmi Demmi” action house (Janßen),
and the “Littel-Phantasie-Cars” kiddie ride (Wegener).
Numerous sweets and snack booths provided
the visitors with food and drinks, and a number of
games and sales booths rounded off the selection
on offer. The opening of the fair by Mayor Georg
Moenikes and Philipp Heitmann, deputy chairman
of the Münsterland Showman Association at the
“Disco Jet” on Friday afternoon was followed by the
traditional stroll across the fairground, and in the
evening a fireworks display was held on the Deitmar
property.
At the showman meeting held on the Thursday evening,
the fairground director was honoured for 27
years in office. When he goes into his well-deserved
retirement early next year, he will be succeeded
by Franz-Josef Beuntker.

The Krüßingkirmes, held in the Warendorf district
of Freckenhorst from 4 th to 6 th May, is organized by
the Warendorf city authorities and the fairground
director duo Tim Sawukaytis and Martin Bieckmann,
supported by the Freckenhorst Arbeitskreis
Tourismus und Kultur (Working Group for Tourism
and Culture) in organizing, among other aspects,
the supporting programme.
This year, Feldmann’s Caterpillar Ride (owner: Dirk
Lotte) was built up on the Stiftsmarkt fairground. Younger
visitors were able to enjoy a kiddie ride, the “Flying
Toys” Jet Ride, a pony ride, and a snack booth, as well
as a beverage stall, a concession stall, a shooting
gallery, 'slush puppy' ices and sweets rounding off the
entertainment contingent. The fair was opened by deputy
mayor, Doris Kaiseran at the Caterpillar Ride. For
younger visitors a balloon race was held, which was followed
by free rides on the fairground attractions for a
quarter of an hour, and the guests of honour insisted on
making a round on the Caterpillar themselves. In sunny
weather on the Sunday morning a procession was held,
with an impressive number of participants. Around midday,
the art market opened with 27 exhibitors, and the
Freckenhorst choir gave a concert in the Stiftskirche in
the afternoon. The Arbeitskreis Tourismus und Kultur
presented a Continental pick stand, as well as selling
the Krüßing pin, which has been issued with annually
changing motifs since 2011. The Krüßingkirmes closed
with the designated Family Day on Monday. ■

SENFTENBERG
In der viertgrößten Stadt der Niederlausitz – im Sü
Text & Photos: Rolf Orschel
In the fourth largest city in the region of Lower
Lusatia, falling within the state of Brandenburg,
the traditional Frühlingskirmes, organised for
many years by the Chairman of the Lower Lusatia
Forst Showman Association, showman Henry
Probst, was held on limited space from 19 th to 22 nd
April.
The fair was almost cancelled, as the authorities had
sold half of the site at Briesker Straße, used as a fairground
for five years, to an investor four weeks before
the event. It was only due to the energetic cooperation
between the organiser and the participating showman
that the spring festival could be held, even if it was
much smaller than planned. As hardly half of the fairground
was available, Henry Probst had to reject a
number of showmen and look for suitable replacement
rides in the surrounding region. However, he was
not altogether successful, as most of the showmen
had already been contracted for other events at the
time. On the Monday of the week of build up, the showmen
were in for yet another unpleasant surprise. Due
to construction work on the part of the site that had
been sold, the excavated soil had been stored temporarily
on the fairground. As the soil was removed only
after the Mayor had exercised his authority, the showman
transports up until then had to be parked in
Briesker Straße for a considerable time, a busy access
road to the Autobahn, thus causing total chaos on the
street.
Henry Probst felt frustrated. Even though he has
organised the Senftenberg Volksfest for many years
and had to make repeated moves to other sites, he
had never experienced anything like that before.
Nevertheless, he succeeded in putting together a
consistently family-friendly selection of attractions
and laying out a quite appealing little fairground. The
poster advertising, which served also as signposts to
the Senftenberg Frühlingskirmes, was excellent.
Immediately upon exiting the Autobahn, conspicuously
designed and colourful posters were
perfectly deployed, showing visitors the way to the
fairground in Briesker Straße.
In its entrance area, visitors encountered Andrich’s
small “Crazy Train” Switchback and the nostalgic
Ferris Wheel from Danke. Further attractions presented
were the Twister from Sperlich, Krämer’s dodgem
track, as well as the Simulator from Sperlich and Hamberger’s
“Fantastic World” from the show and funhouse
sector. Younger visitors were able to enjoy the
small horse carousel. Two Continental pick stands,
shooting galleries, ball and dart throwing booths, as
well a hook-a-duck invited the public to try their luck
and marksmanship. Moreover, a snack and sweets
booth and a beverage outlet provided visitors with
food and drinks.

Polyp”, “Jumper”, Dodgem Track and the Walkthrough
construction “Crazy Town”. In addition to several kiddie
rides and games booths, Barth’s large snack booth with
a cosy beer garden invited the visitors to enjoy. Apart
from the opening ceremony, a Bengali Whitsun fireworks
display accompanied by music, and the Family Day on
Tuesday, ranked among the highlights of the event. Due
to changing weather conditions during Pentecost, a
number of showmen suffered losses in turnover. ■

The 6-day Fohlenmarkt in the
second largest town in the
Rhine-Neckar district always
begins one day before Ascension
Day; this year from 8 th to
13 th May. With the 100 th edition
of the market, a milestone
anniversary was celebrated.
The origins of the Fohlenmarkt,
or “foal market” – once an important market for carthorses
– date back to the year 1902, when the event
lasted five days and was the most traditional Volksfest
event in the Kraichgau region between Mannheim
and Heilbronn.

perfectly harmonised with the coaster. Another
looping attraction engaged, the Propeller “Extrem”
from Boos, was effectively placed in the centre of
the fairground. While the “Fantasy-Polyp” from
Landgrebe, the Swing Boat from Trost, the dodgem
track from Lowinger, and the “Rutsche” slide from
Göbel were built up for the general public, younger
visitors were able to enjoy a kiddie track ride, a
compressed air ride, a bungee-trampoline and a
kiddie ride. The 99 th Fohlenmarkt closed with a Family
Day and a colourful fireworks display, and preparations
for the 100 th anniversary, being held from
25 th May to 2 nd June 2014, have already begun. ■
“Cobra” after many years
Today’s event is a heady mixture of a horse and
bric-a-brac market, an open shopping Sunday and
a large fairground, always attracting many
thousands of visitors from near and far. This year,
the organising Lowinger firm from Wiesloch once
again succeeded in putting together an attractive
fairground at the Elzenshalle, as well as contracting
a looping coaster, the “Cobra”, after a break of
many years. The coaster was effectively advertised
as a novelty attraction. Angelo Agtsch, who took
over the looping ride only recently, also presented

STUTTGART

After three weeks, the anniversary spring festival
in Stuttgart (20 th April to 12 th May) closed with a
spectacular fireworks display. According to the
organiser, in Stuttgart, 1.2 million visitors were
attracted to the 75 th Spring Festival in the capital
of Baden-Württemberg.
“This was a good result, considering the adverse
weather conditions, with spring being wet and really
at its worst,” said Andreas Kroll, General Manager
of in.Stuttgart. With more than 100,000 guests,
1 st May was the day with the highest visitor attendance.
Too bad that mainly the weekends suffered
from the cold, wet weather, whereas business was
much better during the week. At the end of this
year’s anniversary event, it was mainly the beer tent
patrons who were satisfied with their results. Despite
the poor weather they did not have to worry about
empty seats. Throughout the event, the tents were
either “quite crowded” or “full to bursting point”, or
having to be closed early “due to overcrowding” on
peak days. The situation was much more difficult for
operators of ride attractions, who did not fare too
well. Their financial results are continually declining,
no matter what the weather is like. They repeatedly
talked of “being only add-ons for the beer tents”.
Sometimes, the showmen were completely baffled
by the allocation of sites in the large circuit course
as well. Three similar types of Walkthrough constructions
being placed at a distance of only a
couple of hundred metres, for example, were particularly
annoying for the owners. Negatively noticeable
was also the well-known problem of bingedrinking.
Even in the early afternoon the first, mostly
adolescent “drunken bodies” were taken to
hospital by ambulance, and not only at the weekends.
Among the attractions offered on the fairground,
was the “The King” from Andreas Zinnecker, which
was very well attended after sundown due not least
to its opulent lighting, yet was a veritable eye catcher
even without this striking feature, and gave new
stimulus. Moreover, the “Big Bamboo” Walkthrough
construction from Hempen was a highly varied alternative
to the other, mostly well-known Funhouse
constructions. As a third novelty, it was possible to
engage Hartmann’s “Krumm & Schief Bau”. Those
three joined some 240 showman operations, publicans
and marketers. The colourful mixture of attractions
from the ride and
fun sector left nothing to
be desired.
A new feature on the
occasion of the anniversary
was the “Historischer
Wasen”, which
gave free insight into the
history of events in
Stuttgart.

Due to continuous rain and low temperatures
afflicting almost all the peak days, the largest
Spring Festival in East Thuringia (20 th April to 5 th
May) suffered severely from decreased visitor
numbers. The only ray of hope was 1 st May, when
eventually visitors virtually besieged the fairground
in dry and mild weather during the afternoon.
However, throughout the remaining duration
of the event, the showmen's expectations for a
better course of business were not met.
For a couple of years, the Gera Volksfest events have
been organised and held by the municipal culture
and event management authority, together with the
city’s Volksfest advisory council. On the centrally
located Hofwiesenpark fairground some 30 showmen
provided the visitors with ride and Funhouse
attractions, a varied assortment of concession stalls,
and cosy beer gardens. The two-level Ghost Ride
“Tanz der Vampire” from Nitzsche, which provided a
family-friendly creepy atmosphere with ghosts and
vampires, was presented as a novelty for Gera this
year. After a break of eight years, Schieck’s “Europa
Rad”, visible from any distance, offered visitors a
magnificent view over Gera once again, and the
“Crazy Mouse” from Janßen also returned to Gera
after a long absence. Further attractions presented
were the Musik Express from Baier, Hentrich’s Breakdance,
the “Flying Circus” chain ride (Kirchner), the
dodgem track from Krebs, and Magerstedt’s “Happy
Butterfly” Switchback. The younger visitors enjoyed
the "Super-8" kiddie track ride from Malfertheiner,
Kirchner’s “Märchenbahn”, and the Jet Ride from
Bang. Moreover, a number of traditional concession
stalls, such as Continental pick stands, shooting
galleries and ball throwing booths invited the public
to try their luck and marksmanship, and several
snack and confectionery booths and beverage outlets
spread across the half-kilometre circuit course
provided the visitors with an ample variety of food and
drinks.
From 2 p.m. on 20 th April, the opening day of the
Spring Festival, all ride attractions could be tried out
at half the price for thirty minutes, before the event
was officially opened at 4 p.m. by the Gera Mayor, Dr.
Viola Hahn, tapping the keg. Wednesdays were the
designated Family Days with reduced prices, and on
29 th April the showmen invited 20 children from the
Gera Heimbetriebsgesellschaft to a free two-hour
visit to the fairground. Moreover, as a way of saying
thank you, the showmen and the organiser held a fireworks
display directly adjacent to the fairground on
3 rd May at around 9.30 p.m. ■

The Rostock Pfingstmarkt has been held for more
than 600 years and is the oldest Volksfest event in
Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. At this year’s
event, celebrated from 17 th to 20 th May, visitors were
offered a small but pleasant Whitsun Market with
fair attractions for all age groups on the fairground
in the city harbour district.
The origin of the market goes back to an eight-day
trade fair in 1390 beginning on Whit Sunday which,
after the decline of the Hanseatic League, gradually
changed into a Volksfest event held on the market
square on the banks of the River Warnow. Ever since
the 1930s, large rides and a roller coaster have been
fixtures of the market held on the fairground at the city
harbour. After the construction of the border between
the “two Germanys”, the traditional Volksfest event had
to move from this fairground to other free sites throughout
the city, as the city harbour was located in the border
area 'hermetically sealed off' by the “Iron Curtain”.
Over the years, the Whitsun Market established itself
on the fairground at the Fischerbastion where, among
other attractions, the “Wiener Sport Rad” (Taube), “Tropical
Jet” Matterhorn (Plaenert), and the Waltzer ride
(Holtz) attracted visitors in droves up until 1989. In the
early 1990s, when the Großmarkt GmbH Rostock took
56

over the organisation of the Whitsun Market, and the
city harbour was once again available as a fairground,
a new chapter was written in the history of this Volksfest
event. Due to the positive cooperation with the Rostock
Showman Association, the quality of the Whitsun
Market abruptly changed, and for a number of years
visitors were able to enjoy as many as 15 large ride and
Funhouse attractions on the 20,000-square metre fairground.
This event is located directly on the banks of
the River Warnow and in front of the magnificent setting
of the residential buildings and storehouses from the
Late Baroque period in the northern part of the medieval
city centre. In the last few years, the number of
large attractions steadily decreased, and with only
three large rides being presented, the occupancy in
2012 left much to be desired. Due a larger number of
attractions being engaged for this year’s event and a
substantially improved layout of the market area, this
year’s fairground made a much more appealing
impression than during the last few years. This time the
stage, not missed by anybody anyway, was replaced
by the “Hanse Rad” from Geisler, which made an appealing
impression and was visible from any distance.
Further attractions presented were Fehlauer’s “Breakdance”,
the “Hot Wheels” dodgem track from Welter,
the “Berliner Rutsche” slide (Bungardt), the “Fantastic
World” Funhouse from Hamberger, and the “Time Visitor”
simulator from Walkhoefer. Younger visitors enjoyed
the “Samba Dance” and the “Kindertraum” Kiddie
Carousel, as well as a Jet Ride. In the gastronomic sector,
snack and confectionery booths, as well as beverage
outlets, provided the visitors with food and drinks.■

Every year in late April (this time from 26 th April
to 6 th May), the traditional May Fair is held in the
city of Genk in the Limburg province, located only
a couple of kilometres from the German-Belgian
border.
This year it was possible to engage more than 100
attractions. Due to new buildings along the festival
mile and several construction sites, the layout of the
fairground had to be changed, such as relocating
some of the sites for the large attractions to the rear.
As an unexpectedly positive effect was that the
number of top-end sites had increased.
Two novelties made their Genk début, namely the
“Wild Mouse 2” from Bufkens/Florens and the
“Extasy” (a Flipper) from Stappers/Zeppieri. Both
constructions were highly popular especially after
dusk, when they were fully occupied. Noticeable at
ride attractions in Belgium and in neighbouring
France is the fact that fire displays, controlled by the
operator, are additional eye catchers after sundown.
Lit at full blast, the fireballs, burning only a couple of
seconds become a fantastic effect for the visitors.
Further ride attractions presented were a “Shaker”,
“New Crazy Dance” (Breakdance built in Italy),
“Movie Star” (Switchback), “Canyon” (Family
Coaster), Toboggan, “Polyp”, “Extreme” (Miami),
Dodgem Track, “Coco Bongo” (Streetfighter), “Drop
Zone” (Top Scan), as well as the “G-Force” (Booster).
Moreover, the “Spukschloss” Walkthrough construction
and the “Nightmare” Ghost Ride, now touring
throughout Belgium, provided a creepy atmosphere.
They were joined by two Funhouse constructions,
the “One Man Show” and the “Real Mirror
Town”. On 1st May, the event was very well attended,
at times leaving barely any room to move on the fairground,
nor any free seats in the beer gardens and
at the snack booths. With piles of rubbish forming
due to refuse bins not being emptied and waste not
being removed from the tables, several snack
booths made a somewhat grim impression in the
evening.

PARIS
Interesting major rides
“Moonraker” –
a “Galactica” as novelty
Text & Photos: Ton Koppei
The Foire du Trône numbers among the largest
and most beautiful Volksfest events in Europe,
and at the same time is an important showcase
for the French showman industry. The event with
a very long tradition has been held in Bois de
Vincennes since 1964. This year, the eight-week
Foire du Trône, which attracts up to 5 million
visitors to the idyllic fairground located in a
beautiful park every year, was held from 26 th
March to 26 th May.
For some years now, two tall Ferris Wheels have
been built up in the large area, curiously enough
placed fairly close to each other. After the local
Campion firm presented its brand new Mondial
Ferris Wheel with closed gondolas some years ago,
the showman Vatonne built up the former German
“Royal Bavarian Wheel” with open gondolas as the
second Ferris Wheel in Paris for the first time this
year. Every year, the latest attractions from wellknown
European ride manufacturers are presented
at the Foire du Trône, and there has once again been
an ample selection of attractive ride and funhouse
constructions in 2013. Particularly noticeable was
the large number of Mondial attractions; the "Roue
de Paris", "Insider", "Extreme"," PowerMaxx", and the
giant “Maxximum” catapult, all of them come from
the north of the Netherlands. In addition to the aforementioned
Ferris Wheels, the “Countdown” Tower
from the Fleur family as well as the “Fly Man” from
Campion also took their passengers up into the sky.
Another strange, tall construction was the Giant
Swing “Maxx”. Similar to a bungee construction, the
construction built in Italy provides a completely
different swinging movement with over-the-top
rotations of the gondola. For years, the coaster
“King” from the Vancraeyenest family, which is
considered the largest travelling attraction in
France, has been a fixture at the Foire du Trône.
Further coasters presented were the “Crazy Mouse”
from Degouset, a Schwarzkopf “JetStar”, the huge
“Banzai”, and the classic coaster from the Lapere
family, along with the usual two water rides. No
longer available was the Huss "Enterprise", its
former site being taken by the “Pirat”, another
classic ride built in Germany. Another Huss
construction presented in Paris was the “Mega
Dancer”, which used to be domiciled in Germany.
Paris offers an ample selection of ride attractions for
everybody. While “Satan Salsa”, “Moonraker”,
Ejection Seat, “Booster Maxx” the Tagada and the
“Free Dance” and “Fly Zone” swings provided
visitors with speedy rides, attractions such as Wave-
Swinger, Happy Sailor, Caterpillar Ride, Giant Slide,
58

and Sauterelle were intended for the more general
public. A number of rides, somewhat unfavourably
placed or faced with strong competition from a
similar constructions built up in close proximity,
effectively enticed the public with reduced fare
prices.
The French funhouse sector is currently, without
doubt, dedicated to the motto “tall, taller, the tallest”.
Constructions with four levels and built on two
centre trailers, such as the “Palais du Rire” from the
Coemelck family, are no exception. This time, four
large funhouses were presented in Paris. Ghost
rides are also very popular at the Foire du Trône and
almost all of them are operated by the Camors
family. In the end, the première of a brand new ride
from Italy did not work out and was postponed until
the summer. In addition to several classic simulators,
visitors also encountered two modern 5D
cinemas.
The games sector was not only represented by a
relatively large number of pick up trolleys, but also
by numerous examples of “Barbercut” type silhouette
games, as well as the Italian “Hoopla” game,
with the artful announcements over the microphones
at several arcade machines and the direct contact
with the players certainly being a striking feature.
Show booths have almost completely disappeared
from the Foire du Trône. While the occasional Wall of
Death or freak show could be encountered in the
rear section of the event up until a couple of years
ago, this year’s offering in the show booth contingent
was restricted to the “Amazonia” reptile show. ■

Every year at Pentecost, the traditional “Foire de
Pentecote” is held in this town in eastern France,
only a couple of kilometres from the German
border and the neighbouring region of Pfalz am
Weintor beyond.
Therefore, it is not surprising that the little Alsatian town
with almost 7,800 residents is virtually “German” at the
Pentecost weekend. Given this, Wissembourg presents
itself at its most distinctive character, and the
shops, cafés, creperies, and restaurants are well
stocked with regional specialities, most notably with
the supremely palatable “Flammkuchen” tarte flambé
offered in numerous variations. The fairground held in
the pedestrian precinct, accommodating a number of
attractions, also benefits significantly from the masses
of guests from Germany. In addition to several regular
participants, the organiser tries to present at least one
novelty attraction every year. This year it was Maxime
Leraitre’s “Mega Extrem”, and it did not disappoint as
it whirled its passengers through the skies. The ride
was particularly popular with adolescent visitors. After
a break of several years, the “Raupenbahn” was built
up once again, placed next to the regularly returning
“King Monster”. Also presented once again in a new
design of happy colours was the Walkthrough construction
“Brasil”. A dodgem track, a number of kiddie
rides, Walking Waterballs and kiddie track rides rounded
of the contingent of fairground attractions. ■

The largest travelling
Fun House on the British
Isles
Waltzer, Dodgems, Miami, Twist
– four essential ingredients of almost
any British fair. But there's
at least one more major attraction
that features at most events:
the Fun House. Since last
summer a particularly large construction
has been touring the
north of England.

Jungle Fun House
In actual fact, even on an average-sized fair in
Great Britain, it's not uncommon these days to
see two or three Fun Houses. Often built by
showmen in their own yards, most of these are
lorry or trailer-mounted constructions designed
to fit onto the standard 12.5m “side show” position.
It was Willie Wilson with his Rio Madness (long
since sold) who is widely credited with introducing
the multi-level “continental” style Fun
House to British fairs in the 1980s, but since the
mid '90s larger construction have started
appearing, spanning as many as four levels.
Trevor Dailey really raised the game with his
Barbisan King's Circus (now abroad), and now
young showman Curtis Eddy has snatched the
title of UK's largest travelling Fun House with his
new 30.5m Jungle Fun House. To date, Eddy has
travelled a variety of attractions including his
family's Waltzer, a Fabbri Booster and two family
coasters. So why did he opt for a large Walkthrough
construction?
“My uncle always told me the only thing better
than a nice little Waltzer was a nice big Waltzer,
so I thought the same might apply to a Fun
House. There was also the opportunity to travel
such a construction on my father-in-law's [Stewart
Robinson] fairs, so I took the plunge and
placed an order with Jamie Whiting in July 2011
after being impressed with a Ghost Train he had
built a few years earlier.”
The Jungle Fun House follows the same format
as several Italian-style constructions before it
was built in Pontefract, West Yorkshire by Whiting,
with help from showman colleagues Charles
Church and Ryan Barwick. All three are lifelong
friends of Eddy, but there was one main
reason he decided to buy British.
“Quite simply it would have cost me about 30%
more to go with a foreign manufacturer because
of import duties and the exchange rate of the
Euro,” he told us. “All the motors, gearboxes and
60

The water obstacle
course is an important part of
the construction
“Will the Dutchman”
painting the attraction
control systems are also from the UK, so if anything
goes wrong I've not got far to go to get
spares.” Standing 11m tall, the attraction spans
three floors and can also be built to a width of
either 18 or 24 m. Like most British Fun Houses,
its depth is confined to the width of the trailer it
is built on. As a result of this and a relatively
modest selection of effects inside, it packs onto
just two loads, comprising one 16.5m arctic
trailer and a smaller tri-axle trailer that sits to the
left as an integral part of the show featuring a
spiral slide and water obstacle course. During
their walk in the jungle, fair-goers will also encounter
all the usual “tricks” and effects such as
a rolling barrel, moving walkways, stairs,
brushes, rollers, spinning discs and so on.
Having considered various ideas, including the
tried and tested circus theme and a more
original but not particularly child-friendly “Fun
House XL” format, Eddy decided to play it safe
and opt for the name of "Jungle Fun House". The
talented but sadly retired airbrush artist Paul
Wright was invited to prepare a design for the
facade. Although the attraction's owner has
decorated several attractions himself in the past,
he didn't feel confident on such a large canvas.
After rejecting an earlier plan to have it vinylprinted,
he commissioned “Will the Dutchman”
to bring it to life.
Improvements to the show will follow once funds
allow, and the owner is currently on the lookout
for interesting animatronics and effects to give it
the “X factor,” both inside and out. Originally it
was due have a fourth level walkway on the roof,
but that was deemed too scary for young children,
but it's always an option in future.
The attraction made its debut last summer at
Whitehaven Festival in Cumbria, where it will
make a return appearance this June. Other confirmed
events in 2013 include Scarborough Fair,
Hull Fair and many other fun fairs in Eddy's
native county of Yorkshire.
And if you like jungle and circus-themed Fun
Houses, then the UK is the place for you! Here
are some of the other large constructions that
have appeared in recent years:

“Crazy Circus” from John
King's Circus
Following an appearance in the mid 1990s of a
similar, Dutch-owned attraction at Glasgow's
SECC Christmas Fair in Scotland, Trevor Dailey
wowed British fair-goers and many of his fellow
showmen when he purchased a three-tier
"King's Circus" Fun House from the now-defunct
Italian manufacturer Barbisan. About twice the
length of nearly every other Fun House touring
the country at the time, its construction and its
theme went on to inspire many of the British Fun
Houses that followed. The attraction was sold
abroad in the mid nineties.
Czech Circus
Originally travelled by Joe Mulhearn Jnr. and
John Bagnall, the two Crazy Circus Fun Houses
that entered the UK in 2002 from the Czech
Republic were hardly original. but paved the way
for further Eastern European constructions to
come into the country, including several Czechbuilt
Miami constructions, and more recently a
handful of Hungarian and Slovakian dodgem
tracks, Star Flyers, and a Break Dance. Built by
Funlight, the Fun Houses are now travelled
respectively by John Noyce and George Gess,
though a third construction called "Jumbo
Circus", delivered new in 2003, is still with
original owner Brandon Connell.
Jumbo Circus
Freddie Stokes has travelled a Sobema Super
Bob on British shores for 30 years, but in 2006
he and his sons completed an impressive fourtier
Fun House called "Jumbo Circus". Its
generic name does not take away from its
high quality construction, and the family
continues to present the show at many of the
UK's larger fairs. Stokes and his “Danum UK”
imprint have also been responsible for building
several attractive children's rides including
several much-admired mini Miamis and
Matterhorns.
Jungle Madness
Another predictable theme is featured on this
nevertheless imposing Fun House travelled
by Craig Freeman since 2008. The show was
constructed by young showmen Scott & Ross
Craddock on behalf of Walter Murphy Jnr.,
who has several other Fun Houses and
attractions under his belt including a Ghost
Train built for Freeman in 2000.

For Gilbert Jnr.'s biggest ever Fun House, which
debuted in May 2010, he chose a pirate theme,
but soon “softened it up” with friendlier colours
and features including handrail decor influenced
by a well-known German show. His
takings duly increased! A second trailer, incorporating
several water obstacles, is placed in
front of the main trailer to increase the walkthrough
area at larger fairs.

For three years, the showman
enterprise Carola Andrich from
Baruth/Mark in Brandenburg has
been operating the small “Crazy
Train” Switchback, in addition to
a kiddie carousel, the “Kleiner
Glücksbringer”, a Continental
pick stand and the “Biker Dream”
shooting gallery. The Kirmes &

the family’s son, Gorden Andrich,
at the Spring Fair in Senftenberg
in the south of Brandenburg.

Crazy Train
Originally, the Switchback, the year of construction
and builder are unknown, was a
horse carousel operated by the showman Matthias
Dick up until the early 1960s and then rebuilt into
the Switchback “Lillyput-Express”. Having been
successfully reconstructed, the ride was operated
by Matthias Dick for yet another couple of years,
before being sold to showman Horst Schröter from
Andernach. After several further changes of
ownership, the attraction was taken over by showman
Heinrich Roos, who set out to completely overhaul
and redesign the ride shortly after the takeover.
First, he had the Boutier firm in Saarlouis build
a new track circuit. The old rounding boards, on
which former pop stars had been immortalized,
and the decorative pictures were newly built by
Heinrich Roos himself. Next, the entire ride was
newly painted and decorated by the Müller firm
from Wallerfangen. On completion of the reconstruction,
the “Lillyput-Express” became the
“Crazy Train” in the summer of 1992. Due to the
Statue of Liberty sitting majestically in the middle
of the ride, the American skyline mounted to the
middle of the rounding boards and its colourful
painting, the carousel changed into quite an
exotic item among the Switchback constructions,
displaying an American Pop-Art theme with a
nostalgic touch. Heinrich Roos operated the
“Crazy Train” for another 13 years, before selling it
to the Dauenhauer firm from Frankfurt/Main, which
operated the ride for five years up until October
2010. Then the attraction was taken over by the
Andrich family that had been looking for a smaller
and more light-weight ride for some time. It was to
be quickly relocated so that their son Gorden, 23
years old at that time, would be able to build up
and dismantle the ride with a minimum of
personnel. With its well-thought-out and
light-weight construction, the “Crazy Train”
entirely met the wishes and ideas of the
Andrich family. The base, supports, pillars,
rafters, and crown slats are made of steel. Almost
all individual sections are secured by bolts; only

have to be dismantled. However, only the two side
walls and the backs are loaded on the baggage

transported on the centre trailer together with the
tracks, 16-section construction and wood. The
paybox-operator stand is firmly mounted above
the front axle of the two-axle centre trailer. The
drive system of the ride is said to come from an
electric mining locomotive. The rotational speed of
the 15-HP engine is transmitted to the pin rim via a
counter shaft gear and a pinion, and controlled
with a combination of drive position controls and a
water starter. Maximum rotational speed amounts
to 12.5 r.p.m. While it takes four men and a maximum
eight hours to unhurriedly build up the
Switchback, dismantling is accomplished within
about 3.5 hours. Gorden Andrich presents the
“Crazy Train” only at minor festivals in Brandenburg,
Saxony and Saxon-Anhalt. Other venues this
year will be, among other events, the Weinfest in
Radebeul and the Inselfest in Frauenhain, as well
as several other Volksfest events.

against the increase of value added
tax (VAT). In an interview with the Kirmes &
Park Revue , President of the Portuguese
showman association Associação Portuguesa
de Empresas de Diversão (APED),
Luís Paulo Fernandes, related about the
fight of colleagues against the financial
politics of the Portuguese government.

ESU-President Albert Ritter at the Historic Jahrmarkt
at the beginning of March 2013 in Bochum
What actually is the situation in Portugal?
Luís Paulo Fernandes:
Even after the 42-day protest action in the
whole of the country, the situation for the
showmen in Portugal has not changed. Our
demands were introduced to the political
parties and parliament committees and redirected
to the government.
What are your actual demands to the politicians?
Luís Paulo Fernandes:
The Volksfests in Portugal are a cultural asset
worthy of protection. Our showman branch is
a cultural branch, is however subject to the increased
tax of 23 percent. We are demanding
reduced taxation, as is deemed in most European
countries for showmen. Another demand
is the harmonisation of traffic regulations,
and the lowering or alternatively the
exemption of road charges and tax. A showman
transports his own business and not
other goods. Furthermore we are fighting for
the cutting of red tape and a unified and
countrywide permit practice.
How many showmen have taken part in the
protests?
Luís Paulo Fernandes:
The response has been terrific up until now.
Around 85 percent of the enterprises have
taken part in the protest actions. On an average
it would be 180 showmen per day.
What are the consequences of increased
taxation for colleagues in Portugal?
Luís Paulo Fernandes:
The situation is very crucial for the showmen.
A number stand shortly before economic ruin.
The Portuguese showman association helps
its members as much as it can.
Has there already been any response from
the government?
Luís Paulo Fernandes:
The government and political representatives
have always and repeatedly announced that
"Unity gives strength". Protest action by showmen
in Lisbon
they would help. However, up until now
nothing's happened that's worth mentioning.
We will therefore continue our protests. On a
related note I would like to convey our heartfelt
thanks to the European Showman Union
and its President Albert Ritter, in the name of
all Portuguese showmen, for the support and
solidarity.
Our fight will continue!

Resistance to the closing of the Sinksenfoor in Belgium
It is one of the largest and most popular
Volksfest in Belgium: each event presents
over 150 showmen, more than one million
visitors at the Sinksenfoor, fun and entertainment.
However the future of the
traditional fair looks gloomy. Following
legal action from residents, it will be permanently
banned from the historic harbour
area of Antwerp. There is no alternative
location as yet. The European Showman
Union protested energetically against
the closing of the Sinksenfoor.
"It can't be true that the desire of six residents
takes precedence over the interest of hundreds
of thousands of Kirmes fans", said ESU-
President Albert Ritter, and called for resistance
against the closing of the Sinksenfoor. In
a letter to the Belgian showman colleagues
Ritter emphasised: "Don't allow this arbitrariness!
It's not only your work that is in danger,
but also the future of the cultural asset, the
Volksfest. The European Showman-Union,
and with that all European showmen support
you!" Albert Ritter views Sinksenfoor as a sad
example of a trend, "which unfortunately can
also be seen in other European countries.
Traditional fairs simply being deposed".
It is therefore important that organisations
The Sinksenfoor is a Kirmes with a hundred
year tradition.

such as the ESU and the German Showman
Association work against this development
with all their might. The Sinksenfoor looks
back on hundreds of years of tradition. It's had
its permanent place in the historic harbour
area of Antwerp since 1969. Ritter: "The heart
of the European Volksfest beats in the centre
of the cities. It was here that they originated,
and it's here that their future should be."
Ritter referred to talks undertaken by the
European Showman Union in the past with
representatives of the European parliament
and the commission. During that time the
delegates always referred to the cultural and
economical importance of the Volksfests for
the community, and that this cultural asset
should be protected. ESU-President: "It
contradicts all logic and cannot be agree to
that the Sinksenfoor should be driven out
now from Antwerp. The European showmen
support their Belgian colleagues in the fight
for their jobs. The cultural asset Volksfest must
live on!
Unity gives strength!"

COASTER
The continuous almost
endless looking inversions
are really something
Secret weapons were always a
British speciality – thanks to
James Bond and the MI 5, but
also thanks to Alton Towers in
the English Midlands. This
year’s novelty under the synonym
“SW7” has also caused a
lot of attention since already the
middle of 2012.

The Smiler
It all started in 1990 with the Inverted Coaster from
B&M, when the infamous “Nemesis” practically
rose out of the ground overnight. The description
Secret Weapon (SW) became so established by
the creative team at Alton Towers, and later by the
Merlin Group, that all other larger projects for the
park had the same abbreviation and were only extended
numerically. The excitement about this
year’s novelty was increased by the marketing
department not only due to the long silence
about the construction, about what kind of
world novelty attraction would be added, but
also by the secret advertising measures. And
so the grinning logo could be seen during the winter
months projected in public places and on buildings,
or the fan community was made very curious
by a very mysterious student type of film work
in internet. And it’s exactly this type of bizarre and
funny “feeding” of potential visitors by the marketing
department that always makes a difference
with new attractions for Alton Towers.
68

“The Smiler” waits this year with a special world
record, because as of now it is the coaster with
the most inversions in the world: believe it or not,
the 1,170 metre long track course offers 14 (!).
After German manufacturer Gerstlauer began to
produce for Thorpe Park (also Merlin Entertainments
Group) and had delivered a top job with
“The Saw”, the southern German company had
to extend itself even more for the project for
this year’s sensation at Alton Towers.
initiated by the already mentioned lifts and always
comprising of seven widespread inversions –
there were separate calculations for the arising
acceleration, which for example enables narrower
curve radii. Another side benefit of the two lifts:
the ride guests have the opportunity of a short
recovery phase after around half of the otherwise
no respite coaster ride.
A number of lifts are not
really anything special,
however are of a different type
The peculiar moving
sculpture reminds one a little
of a transformer
A very Compact Coaster Layout
This year’s attraction stands directly next to
the “Oblivion” coaster on the earlier location
of the indoor coaster “Blackhole”, type “City
Jet” from Anton Schwarzkopf, which has left
the park. Only marginal extensions were
made to the grounds for the world record
holder, and it’s really amazing how those
responsible have created a real masterpiece
– from layout to calculation – in order to accommodate
the vast number of inversions in
such a compact form. This objective was accomplished
by way of two features: on the one
hand both lifts – a classic chain lift is located
shortly behind the station building and a vertical
variation (however without the following
steep drop known from the “Eurofighter”)
directly in the construction – a relatively small
area to make use of. On the other hand, due
to these two course sequences – each being

COASTER
A total view of the very
compact construction
Something more or less
unusual for a park construction
is commonplace for transportable
coasters: a well thought out
organisation and many experiences
as possible on the
smallest area available
Theming and Idea by John Wardley
Incidentally the coaster theme is once again typically
British, in part a little macabre but with a lot
of witticism, and the attraction integrates very well
into the “X-Sector” theme area. So once again the
“Ministry of Joy” wanted to provide all visitors with
a lasting smile. First and foremost the effect
should naturally be caused by the many inversions,
but the intention has a lot of support
through psychedelic videos, sounds and symbols.
Many of these components remind one of
the 70s, but here however are in a contemporary
and modern guise. And it’s especially the tower
type of construction in the centre with the 360°
display that’s noticeable, but there are also other
moving decoration elements that support this
effect. In the waiting area the theme is continued
again with video screens repeatedly showing
jingles and projections literally “soaking” the
visitors.
Momentarily, as the waiting times can be particularly
long due to the storm on the ride and the
technical problems that occur now and again, the
forceful effects are almost psychologically
burdening.
70

And the ride already starts with a surprise: after
leaving the station, the train travels over a slanting
left curve into a Heartline-Roll that is not visible
from outside, which is followed by the chain lift in
the open, and the drop flows into a corkscrew. The
rest of the ride with inversions at various heights
is very confusing, and one really has the impression
of being upside down constantly. It’s only before
the second lift that the ride guests have a moment
to recover, but even during the small pause
have to go through another brainwashing thanks
to the displays and visual spots. It’s only after this
that the ride travels into the heights a second time
at a 90° angle, to then undertake the other seven
inversions. The two last inversions in the form of
two Corkscrews also offer somewhat of a change,
and lead the train with a left curve quite crisply
back to the station. A small difference is made by
the two Camelbacks (one in each segment),
which serve a pretty strong negative g-force.

Four trains are used in total which – different to the
known Gerstlauer “Eurofighter” – have four individual
cars, each with four rows. Two trains can
be sent onto the track simultaneously, which in
itself is an optical treat. Because the Batwing
element knots the two tracks – in other words are
“interlocked loopings”, it looks in part as though
two trains are travelling in the same element
simultaneously – including “near miss” effects.
Even if the clearance gauge for the four seats per
car is enormous, the effect appears to be a perfect
interaction.
John Wardley, Creative Advisor for ride attractions
at Merlin, was also involved in the planning of “The
Smiler”. He is of the opinion that the total amount
for time, money and energy that had to be
expended was huge, and although he has been
engaged in this area for over 35 years, “The
Smiler” has exceeded every boundary. The result
regarding attraction and theming is impressive.
After the somewhat half heartedly realized projects
for Alton Towers over the past years, the fact
that John Wardley was involved has done more
than good.

TEA EUROPE MEETING & TEA/AECOM GLOBAL ATTRACTIONS ATTENDANCE REPORT
The annual general meeting of
the TEA Europe & Middle East
Division took place this year
from the 21 st to 23 rd of May.
The conference location was
chosen to be the Spanish Port-
Aventura Resort.
Text:
Frank Lanfer
Tabellen & Grafik: TEA / AECOM
In addition to member matters and a backstage
tour through PortAventura, there were also a number
of lectures on the agenda during the two days.
One example was given by architect Ray Hole who
advised the meteorological fact that the jet streamaxis
has translocated to the south during the last 50
years. Once it had run between the British Isles and
the European mainland, but currently it runs over
continental Europe. Great Britain had enjoyed mild
weather conditions earlier due to the northern extension
of the jet stream, but is now located right in
the centre of a continuous rainfall zone.
More All-weather Attractions
This inevitable fact must be taken into consideration
and reaction should be shown particularly by entertainment
architecture and other theme park facilities
by installing much more all-weather attractions, according
to Ray Hole. His statement: “Experience
comes first, then the weather.”
Martin Barrett from the company of the same name,
also spoke of the changed weather conditions in
Great Britain, which was painfully obvious in the
past and completely rain-swept season. He advised
park operators to: “Minimize costs (amongst
others by pre-bookings). Maximize revenues (for
example by paid Fast-Passes). Make bad weather
fun (with free hot chocolate, rain checks, water
games and so on).”
At the moment everyone’s attention has shifted in
the direction of the booming theme park scene in
Asia. For this reason the presentation from Yael
Coifman, in the name of his firm Leisure Development
Partners was all the more remarkable when
he spoke of the location advantage of Latin
America: “Many people in South America have
more money than in China”. However, whilst there
is a saturated market in museums, indoor playgrounds,
and inner city Lunaparks, there are hardly
any modern theme parks in almost all Latin
American countries, especially Brazil, Mexico, and
Chile, as well as Columbia, Uruguay, Panama and
Costa Rica. Adversary elements against a positive
development are still corruption, drugs and the
distances between the cities. Additionally Yael
Coifman warned against simply implanting North
American or European park models. A project must
be content-related and orientated on location
conditions.
74

The release of worldwide visitor numbers for the
year 2012 was followed intensely by participants,
which had been put together by TEA together with
AECOM. David Camp from D&J International
Consulting. Already a part of the results could be
presented during the TEA-meetings.
Figures Released
In the meantime all figures could be elicited.
Natalia Bakhlina from AECOM Associate Director,
Economics, Europe, stated as follows about the
European market: “The 2012 season was unbelievably
difficult for the European theme park
industry due to the continuing economic
recession, cold and wet summers in Northern
Europe and
the London
2012 Olympic
Games, which
left London
deserted for
several weeks
in summer.
Some parks
found it challenging to maintain attendance.
Others, however, showed strong growth which
demonstrates that thoughtful reinvestment can
overcome negative trends.
Thanks to these strong performers, the overall
attendance to the top 20 European parks remained
stable, at 58 million visits.”

COASTER
The aging entrance has
been renewed, and now has
a striking guard with the
“GateKeeper”
For some time now, the front
entrance of Cedar Point has
been in need of updating. A
park of its magnitude had to
have something more “monumental”.
What it needed was...
naturally a coaster, after all
Cedar Point is known for them.

world records, it was therefore no surprise that To make space for “GateKeeper” – Cedar Point
when Cedar Point announced its novelty for 2013 is in effect an island, so space is at a premium –
that it would be a record breaker within its category.
What was surprising though, was just how Intamin “Swiss Bob” built in 1985, and the “Space

So the “GateKeeper” is not surprisingly the Von Roll (double level cabins; taken over by
largest Wing Coaster ever built by B&M. It stands Intamin in 1971), construction year 1965.
76

With these two rides removed, a large section of
the park was opened up to all park visitors to view
Lake Erie. Although Cedar Point is surrounded by
this lake, one of the five Great Lakes, much
couldn’t be seen from the park itself. The park’s
hotels take up a lot of the lake front real estate,
so generally one needs to be at height to see the
lake – something admittedly most of the rides at
Cedar Point accomplish with aplomb. “Gate-
Keeper” reclaims a large chunk of the lake front,
with its entrance placed almost on the beach
itself. Within the park the ride is impressively
designed, but this is not where this coaster has
the most impact. To see that, visitors have to go
outside the park.
There is a ritual at Cedar Point locally known as
the “running of the bulls” where upon the park
opening, there is a mad dash to the south side
as riders try to get to “Millennium Force” first, in
order to avoid considerable waiting times. As the
“GateKeeper” is to the north, runners are confronted
with the agony of choice.
The Wing Coaster plays

are the supports and nearmisses
simultaneously

Heading north visitors are presented with “Max-
Air”, the park’s Huss Giant Frisbee, behind which
the “GateKeeper” entrance is located. It is
marked with a large logo “sculpture,” leading
guests into the extensive queue, which was
reported to be as long as five hours on opening
day. Due to the isolated nature of each side of a
Wing Coaster train, the queue has to split into a
left and right side, which it does just before
potential riders climb up into the station, which is
vast.
A Mixture of Different Coasters
The trains seem almost to be a union of previous
B&M designs. Their size reminds one of the Dive
Coaster, the restraints of the Flying Coaster, the
leg freedom of the Inverted Coaster, and the
openness of a Floorless Coaster. The lift hill hauls
the 32-seat train quickly and quietly to the 50 m
apex. Noise is something that had to be reduced
as there are homes not that far from the front of
the park. The noise reduction also extends to the
supports that have been filled with some element
(B&M insists it’s not just sand), to dampen the
sound of the train. Nothing will dampen the noise
of the riders though.
“GateKeeper”, like both Thorpe Park’s “Stealth”
and Six Flags Great America’s “X-Flight”, doesn’t
wait to get riders inverted; a Dive Drop at the top
of the lift inverts the train, whilst at the same time
dropping down almost to the ground. This sequence
reminds one strongly of the until now unrivalled
twist at the top of the Vekoma Flying
Coasters, and it does make one wonder why
B&M never tried this element on a Flying Coaster.
Rising back up, riders travel into two inversions
before they even have time to catch their breath.
The top speed here is about 108 kilometres per
hour.
78

Manufactured in the USA
The following airtime hill is fun, but doesn’t give
rise, as expected, to all too much negative forces.
Different levels of airtime can be found in different
seats, and in general the back seats do give
slightly more, also on this coaster. This is the
same for all the forces on the ride; none are going
to “tear your face off,” which may not be that bad
a thing.
A corkscrew element raises the inversion count
to three, and now has the train heading along the
front of the park, ready for its party piece. The
impossibly small slither of space between the
entrance pillars is negotiated with smooth perfection.
One could swear it’s possible to touch the
structure when passing through, but of course,
it’s always just out of reach.
Initially the park
was planning to
create the signature
“fly-through”
by building a facade
around the
ride’s structure, but Bob Mampe, the American
representative of Bolliger & Mabillard, suggested
that the same effect could be created structurally.
This meant re-designing the supports
used in that area, which was made easier
because Clermont Steel Fabricators, who are
responsible for all of B&M’s steel work, are
located “just” 370 km south of Cedar Point in
Batavia. This made transporting the huge steel
sections just about practical, but the extra effort
was well worth it and just what the park needed:
an entrance to be proud of.

Just beyond the entrance which the train flies
over with a Revolution Looping is inversion five,
an inclined Dive Loop that has the train heading
back and to inversion six, once again over the
entrance. Now, however, the ride pretty much
comes to an end. The train is still some way from
the station, but the combination of a block brake
and a pretty ineffectual helix finish the ride, which
is something of a letdown after everything that
has come before it.
As already mentioned, these types of rides thrive
when sent close to track side objects (the socalled
“near misses”), however, apart from the
new supports at the entrance area, there are no
others on “GateKeeper”. This is such a wasted
opportunity because a few objects scattered
liberally around the ride, especially on the slow
final helix, would surely improve the overall
experience even more. Maybe it would have
been interesting if the park had kept the “Space
Spiral” and had the coaster interact with it in
some way for example.
Nevertheless, Cedar Point has a breathtaking
coaster that is already extremely popular. ■

Without a doubt an
additional thrill factor for a
number of guests: Europe’s
most active volcano, Etna,
can be seen from almost
everywhere
Up until recently there were
really only two large and
modern theme parks in Italy
with Gardaland and Mirabilandia,
but currently the theme
park scene is going through a
very successful period: Miragica
in Puglia near Bari opened in
2009, Rainbow MagicLand near
Rome in 2011, the new indoorwater
park Aquaworld opened
in 2012, the film park Cinecitta
World near Rome is coming
into being, and the Sicilian
Etnaland went through a massive
transformation between
2010 to 2013 from a water park
into a theme park.

cleaned of volcano ash
Etnaland
The history of Etnaland begins back in 1983 with
the opening of the Parco Zoo di Sicilia near Belpasso,
not too far from Catania. Earlier, this animal
park contained many different species from every
continent, and an exhibition of life size models of
prehistoric creatures. In 2001, the resort was enlarged
with the construction of the water park and
from that moment, the two parks combined are
known as Etnaland. Due to the great success of this
first expansion, the park’s management decided to
focus the future of the resort more and more on the
attractions and less on the animals. This became
clear in 2005 with the opening of “Crocodile Rapids”,
a Hafema Rapids Ride which is a type of attraction
that does not appear frequently in water
parks. In 2010 “Jungle Splash” opened, one of the
very first Intamin Spillwater rides to use a vertical
lift system. At the beginning of 2012, with the opening
of “Dragon River”, a heavily themed, family
friendly log flume produced by Hafema, it was already
in the air that the addition of a whole theme
park area was imminent. And on April 20th 2013,
this became reality. But as fate would have it, just
before the opening of the theme park, Mount Etna
gave its blessings, by covering everything in dust.
82

PORTRAIT
The nucleus of today’s modern Etnaland were a Dinosaur
park and a water park
Etnaland Theme Park is divided into five different
themed lands. The previously mentioned water attractions
“Crocodile Rapids”, “Jungle Splash” and
“Dragon River” are part of “Splash”, which is completed
by “Acqua Bum”, a small boat ride. The
unique feature of this section of the park is that it is
part of the theme park as well as the water park.
Another park section is called “Ultopia”, designed
as an old mining town. And it’s here that the water
ride “Kaos” is located, a Mack “Twist & Splash”. At
the moment, although the attraction is fully operational,
the theming and is yet to be added, as
well as a set of water cannons for the guests on the
outside. Additionally there is also the “Kasimiro”, a
tiny figure eight train ride for the small children; the
“1900th”, an SBF tractor themed ride that brings the
guests through an open air museum of truly old
tractors from the past century, and the “Love Lagoon”,
a nice way to relax between one thrill ride
and another. “Utopia” also contains “The School”,
“The School” from Gosetto
is probably the most unusual
interactive Darkride in the world
83

“Eldorado” is the first
family coaster of steel from
S&S Worldwide, alternatively
S&S-Sansei; it has a length of
579 metres and is 21 metres
high
The Etnaland has three
coasters on offer: “Eldorado”
from S&S, “The Storm” from
Mack Rides, and the “Hip Hop
Coaster” from Zamperla
a very unique interactive Darkride built by Gosetto,
which recreates, as its name suggests, an old
abandoned school hunted by the ghosts of the
teachers and the staff members who used to work
in it. The element that makes “The School” much
different from all the other interactive Darkrides is
that guests don’t have guns to shoot at targets, but
a set of three buttons to answer questions posed
by the ghosts of the professors and, depending on
the choices made, different effects are activated.
The last ride in “Utopia” is “Eldorado”, a 24 meters
tall Mine Train coaster produced by S&S Sansai. Its
layout, as some other similar models, goes above,
around and through an artificial mountain, which
will be completed for the next season. Additionally,
for those not brave enough to ride “Eldorado”,
there’s a path which goes right through the artificial
mountain where it’s possible to watch the riders flying
by through some of the many tunnels.
The other attraction produced by S&S for Etnaland
is the “Etnaland Tower”, a 60 meters tall Shot & Drop
Freefall Tower, located in theme area “Eland”, the
source and the root of the whole fun at Etnaland.
This section also contains the “Funivia”, an 1800
meters long ropeway which travels all around the
resort giving a nice 30 minutes long panoramic tour
of all the attractions including the water park and
the prehistoric park. Not far from the “Funivia”, there
is the “Cinema 4D” which, due to a bureaucratic
problem with one of the service exits, could not be
opened in time for the beginning of the season.
And naturally Etnaland also has a signature ride as
every theme park: a large coaster. Here it is in the
form of “The Storm”, a so called Megalite Coaster
from Mack Rides, which is the first model of its kind
ever built in the world. The first very interesting
detail about “The Storm” is the station building
which is strongly askew towards the lift hill. From the
84

inside, this gives the impression that the station
track is not horizontal but is inclined upwards
toward the lift hill. The train is pulled unusually
quickly up the 32 meters tall lift hill which would give
an amazing view of the Etna volcano and the surrounding
area, if there were enough time. The 70°
steep first drop gives an intensive airtime feeling
especially in the back seats. A good amount of airtime
comes also on the first twisted camelback and
on the second, which is right next to the station. The
second part of the ride contains a highly banked
turn, two helix elements, two small camelbacks,
and an inline twist as finale.
Those who have already ridden “Blue Fire” at
Europa Park already know that Mack found a very
special way to design this element, to give the feeling
of being thrown out of the train with an unbelievable
amount of power that can even be a bit
uncomfortable. “The Storm” gives the exact same
feelings but with the rotation in the opposite direction
and slightly less power making it perfectly
enjoyable. To increase the scenic effect even more,
the sound of a loud thunder is heard just as the train
enters the inversion.
“The Storm” uses two trains with four cars for a total
of 16 passengers each. These trains, thanks to the
unique lap bar system used, are extremely
comfortable and due to their short length, can
perform tight manoeuvres without losing much
momentum.
Undisputed highlight at
Etnaland is the Megalite coaster
“The Storm” from Mack Rides
“The Storm” draws
attention in particular due to
many unusual ride figures
85

Although the individual
attractions are yet to be
themed, there are no clear
divisions between the
individual theme areas
The theming suddenly changes into an extra terrestrial
environment characterized by strange rock
formations and filled with craters, right next to “The
Storm”. This land is called “Galaxia”, and is the
home of two flat rides produced by Zamperla: the
24 seat Disk’O “Quasar”, and “Vortigo”, an attraction
of type “Wind Share”.
Finally, for the younger audience, there is a whole
area called “Sogni di Ciclopino” that can be translated
as “Dreams of Ciclopino”. Ciclopino and his
female counterpart Ciclopina are the two Etnaland
main characters. In this land there are seven
attractions, all from Zamperla, among them a Junior
Coaster called “Hip Hop Coaster”, and “Ciclopina’s
Tower”, which is a Jumpin’ Tower, and “Billow
Balloon”, a panoramic balloon ride.
Overall Etnaland has a great balance. Although the
theming on many attractions was missing or incomplete,
this is not too bad, considering that all,
with the exception of the 4D movie theatre, were in
operation from the very first day. Finally, thanks to
its location, some very unique attractions and a
large water park, a visit to Etnaland is highly recommended,
and for sure will not be regretted! ■

WATERPARK
The highest water
slide in Europe has been
located at PortAventura
Resort since the 18 th May
2013
After the Italian investment
group InvestIndustrial took
over 50% of the PortAventura
Resort in December 2009 (in
2012 the other half was
purchased from the Spanish
bank Criteria CaixaHolding), an
80 million Euro upgrade was
undertaken within four years of
operation of the park, in order
to make it one of the most important
theme park destinations
in Europe.

Costa Caribe
The water park that opened in 2002
(see KPR 8/2002) has now the stately
proportions of 14,000 square metres
on nearly five hectares, and contains
16 different slides and various pools
Already in 2010 an 11 million Euro packet with a total water surface of 8,500 square metres,
began, for amongst others, the attraction “4D including the new family pool “Playa Paraíso” –
Odysea” and a new Ice Revue. In 2011 the 13,000 which – very unusual for a water park – is explicitly
square metre sized kid’s theme area “Sésamo- intended for swimming and for relaxing, or also for
Aventura” was created for 19 million Euro. In 2012, synchronised swimming as happened on the
the sum of 30 million Euro was available for opening day. Directly nearby is the new and also
amongst others the highest coaster in Europe, large kiddie pool “Sésamo Beach” with a water
“Shambhala”. And this year the investment offensive
of around 10 million Euro saw another visible the “Galeón Pirata” with a Sesame Street theme.

park.
“Rapid Race”, the new snack bar “Focacceria”
88

and the “Happyness Station”. All the new slides
were supplied by the Canadian manufacturer
ProSlide.
The main attraction of the extended park water
area are the 19.6 metre high Doubledown slide
“Ciclón Tropical”, and the highest water slide in
Europe by the name of “King Khajuna” visible from
afar. In actual fact even the highest in the world
was in planning earlier, however the realized
attraction at 31 metres is completely sufficient. As
it is, it has been proved that most bathing guests
prefer to watch how the braver amongst them –
and that’s a manageable number – slide down the
55° steep slide at up to six metres per second. A
world record slide that had been planned years
ago as the “Volcano” would have without a doubt
had even less participants. Not adequate however
is the fact that this exciting attraction due to its
height has received no theming at all. The realisation
of the planned design of the “Volcano”,
which would have fitted well to the overall
Caribbean theming of the water park, would have
been preferable.
Interview with Fernando Aldecoa
Already at the end of 2008 the first announcements
were made that the water park was
to be extended. Was this step long overdue?
Following the entrance of the Italian investors,
the focus was initially on other areas, but the extension
of our water park was a
done deal. Water parks are a
summer business, which does
not affect our small indoor area.
Costa Caribe is open for 150
days, however in the main season
it simply was too small to
cope with a growing number of
visitors year after year. Now we
have reached a capacity of
6,500 guests, who can all be in
the water park at the same time.
Earlier it was only 4,500.
But in actual fact the park
wanted to realize the highest
slide in the world.

Then the water slide would have to have been
at least 44 metres high. In the end we found that
to be too much of a good thing, and it wouldn’t
have fitted to our family public. And with 31 metres
we could still achieve a new European record.
The four-year plan made directly after the
takeover runs out in 2014. Is a new attraction
planned for next year?
We will be constructing a new family attraction.
And what is coming after the 80 million
Euro charm-offensive?
We are already working on another multi-year
plan. The anniversary year 2015 will be particularly
exciting. PortAventura will be 20 years

1994. He began as Operations

young, and we will be erecting an attraction that
will once again be a highlight in Europe.
And those that do exist, for example Parque
Warner or Terra Mitíca, are in the red. Why?
In 2012 InvestIndustrial took over all
shares, but not the huge surrounding lands.
Are there still enough grounds for your own extensions?
The total 825 hectares that once belonged to
PortAventura Resort were never marked as a
structure plan for an active theme park. Many
areas were always planned to be used for recreation
and residence. And as far as we are concerned:
we still have 69 hectares available for future
expansion.
There are in comparison to Germany, England,
and the Benelux few large theme parks.
Theme parks in Spain are a new phenomena
when compared to those in the mentioned countries.
Modern parks have existed only since the
opening of PortAventura in 1995. In this country
there is no other park that has over one million
visitors annually. However in order to exist and to
invest, one needs two million at the very least. Very
important was the expansion of a one-day park to
multiple day resort, but no other Spanish park has
undertaken this. Insofar we have no competition
in Catalonia, are unique in Spain, and are an attractive
holiday destination in Europe. Disneyland
offers fantasy worlds, and other parks thrill in particular.
But we have the best mixture of attractions,
shows, and theming in the whole of Europe. ■

BUSCH GARDENS TAMPA
A new freefall tower similar
in construction to the 75 m
high freefall attraction
from Mosers Rides that
opened at Busch Gardens
Williamsburg in 2011 was
actually announced for
2013.
But now it is to be a year
later. However, it’s not only
the opening year that has
changed, but also the technical
data, as now there’s
talk of a tower with a total
height of 101 m. Furthermore
the attraction named
“Falcon’s Fury” will be a
world novelty! After the
round gondola reaches
around 91 m, the seat will tip
forward to 90° – more specifically
the feet will lift upwards
– similar as on a Flying
Coaster from B&M. The
60 mph speedy drop follows,
with a line of vision towards
the ground. It is, if one
likes, the world’s first Flying
Freefall Tower – fitting to the
chosen theme of the raptor
that kills its prey during a fast
nosedive. The opening of
the attraction realized by
Intamin is planned for the
spring of 2014.

CHIMELONG WATERPARK
With 1.9 million guests, it’s the most visited
water park in the world – no wonder, as the park
has every thinkable slide speciality at its disposal
from various manufacturers.
But the “Theme Kids Water Town” is also nothing to
sneeze at, and has a respectable 42 varied water
slides and attractions. For the current increase, a
novelty will be added from Turkish manufacturer
Polin: the world’s first “Boomerang” slide for children!
Whilst a large version of “Family Boomerang”
from WhiteWater was erected exactly a year ago,
all small water park visitors are enjoying this
attractive and nippy amusement since the end of
May. Children from a height of 100 cm are already
allowed to use the “Mini-Turbolance” (accompanied
by an adult). This water slide also entices due
to its especially successful colour scheme. ■
