KALEIDOSCOPE
PIRATENSCHAUKEL
Christopher Nitsche
and his “Piratenschaukel”
Text & Photos: Norman Vogt
Last year, Christopher
Nitsche from Erpolzheim
(Palatinate) took over the
“Piratenschaukel” from
Erich Winter from Worms,
who had built this kiddie
swing himself in 2006.
The light-weight swing (6 m
front, 8.50 m with paybox) is
completely made of aluminium
and can be towed by car
for transportation. After the
takeover, the front was newly
sheeted and newly painted by the Baumann Atelier
firm from Flomersheim. The five boats were dismantled
and equipped with a new floors and seats. All the
screws were removed and replaced by new, highquality
steel examples. Moreover, the lamps were
replaced by LEDs. Finally, a new undercarriage
tarpaulin was mounted. This done, the attraction was
ready for its première under new management at the
Martinsmarkt in Erpolzheim. The five “Piratenschaukel”
boats were newly and variously painted. The pink
boat quickly turned out to be the favourite boat of the
girls, who often even put up with a protracted waiting
time to be able to swing in their boat. Boys, however,
prefer the “Black Perl” boat. Nitsche’s “Piratenschaukel”
is presented at smaller events in
Palatinate.

New: “Bora Bora”
BORA BORA

Bernhard (l.) and Walter
Parpalioni at the opening
“Bora Bora” is the name of
the new games booth from
Bernhard Parpalioni from
Stuttgart that went into
operation at the Mainz
Johannisfest. It is a modern
coin-operated attraction
with a total of 118 modern
games, which were ordered
from a firm in Brussels.
Previously, Bernhard Parpalioni
toured together with his
father Walter with the large
Continental Pick stand “City Shop”. His new attraction
is entirely open, and while the showman built the
9 x 4.50 m wagon himself, he contracted the Afaw
firm to realise his design ideas for the “Bora Bora”:
namely; beach, ocean and a South Sea “feel”. Other
striking features are the light-green flooring and the
latest lighting system. The games booth has
electrical requirements of just 18 kW. Next to the
attraction benches have been put up, inviting
guests to linger and enjoy. Further decoration
elements are palm trees and reeds. During the
première in Mainz, a team of entertainers
guaranteed a party atmosphere, presenting
every guest with a Hawaiian flower garland. ■

CORTINA JET
KALEIDOSCOPE
The Lauwers firm has
introduced the “Cortina Jet”
in Belgium
The ride was last put into
storage at a Finnish
amusement park
Text: Ton Koppei

There are ride attractions which remain ageless
and enduringly fascinating despite their
advanced age. The "Bayernkurve", built by the
now defunct Anton Schwarzkopf firm, is one of
those attractions. Wherever an attraction like
this appears, it is always highly popular with
passengers and spectators alike.
The Belgian showman René Lauwers, who had
been looking for a suitable example of this classic
ride for some time, finally hit it lucky in far away Finland
in late 2011, where a Bayernkurve “Cortina
Jet”, last operated in the Tykkimaki amusement
park, had been in storage for some time.
Even though it had been
built in 1970, the
construction was in very
good technical condition.
Lauwers purchased
the attraction, overhauled
it in his limited
free time, prepared it for
touring and presented it
at this year’s Pentecost Fair in Antwerp.
Despite most of the decoration elements not then
being completed and adequate lighting largely
missing, the attraction was nonetheless highly
popular with the public. Lauwers will build up the
attraction at two to three further fairgrounds this
year.

Goetzke’s “Breakdance”
BREAKDANCE
Text & Photos:
Norman Vogt
The visual appearance of the classic round
ride “Breakdance” (Huss) from Alexander
Goetzke from Munich has been successfully
modernised.
Its backflash and gondolas now feature wellknown
figures from the world of movies – even
the amusement park, where the “Breakdance”
had made a temporary guest appearance was
immortalized on one of the gondolas. Restyling had
started already last year, with artist Pryzbilla demonstrating
his skills on the “Breakdance”, having completed
his job at Goetzke’s “Alex Airport” beforehand.
A striking feature on the rear sides of the new gondolas
is the many LEDs, which provide a spectacular and
colourful lighting after dusk. The lighting pillars in the
front area are now equipped with six LED screens. Restyling
has not yet been completed; among other
features, the name sign is to be changed to match the
new design.

HOUSE OF HORROR
Under new management of
the Plaenert & Schieck firm:
The “House of Horror”
Stephanie Schieck, Patrick
Plaenert, and their son Hugo
The guards in front of the
“House of Horror”
Text & Photos: Rolf Orschel
Since late April last year, the “House of Horror”
Walkthrough construction has been touring under
new management. The young couple, Stephanie
Schieck and Patrick Plaenert from Weberstedt in
the Thuringia district of Unstrut-Hainich, have
taken over the attraction from the Hiddenhausen
showman enterprise Johann Spindler & Sohn.
Having successfully toured the attraction all over
Germany for almost 20 years, the previous owner
parted with the construction due to health reasons.
In 1993, the attraction was built by the Soest Fahrzeugbau
firm as “Das Haus” for the showman Johann
Spindler, and was redesigned as the “House of
Horror” 12 years ago. In order to give the construction
a new individual design, many ideas from Johann
Spindler and his son Sascha were realized. The front
was newly painted with scenes from the world of
horror and ghosts by the Kowalik Airbrushstudio, and
creepy new effects were installed inside the construction.
Finally, the larger-than-life sized guard welcoming
the guests in front of the entrance to the construction
was fitted out with a new set of black leather
outfit.
Two years ago, Stephanie Schieck and Patrick Plaenert
founded their joint business, originally planning to
tour a ride attraction. However, when they learnt last
year that the “House of Horror” was up for sale, they
inspected the construction, quickly struck a deal with
Johann Spindler, and took it over in excellent condition
in April. Shortly after that, on 27 th April, they opened
their new acquisition at the Mai-Kirmes in Wesel.
Even though the attraction was handed over in perfect
condition, the MSR-Service firm in Mansfeld/Großörner
was contracted to thoroughly overhaul the electrical
equipment according to the latest standards. At the
same time, the lighting system was equipped with
LEDs. Moreover, additional decoration elements were
mounted and new effects were installed inside and
outside the attraction. Under the management of the
Plaenert & Schieck GbR, the “House of Horror” will
continue to provide creepy fun for the general public
on two storeys. The “Folterkammer” (torture chamber)
and the “Dachboden des Schreckens” (attic of horror)
provide a creepy atmosphere. In addition two live actors
haunt the inside and the outside of the attraction –
in the afternoon modestly out of consideration for
younger visitors, and horribly for adults in the evenings.
During this season, the “House of Horror” will be
presented, among other venues, in Zerbst, Kamenz,
Weinböhla, Tangermünde, and Neuruppin. ■

SKATER / SALTO MORTALE
®
Text & Photos: Norman Vogt
For some years, the Spanish showman
firm FAF has been touring the
Top Scan “Skater”. Originally, this
Mondial ride went into operation in
Germany under the name of “Salto
Mortale” in 1997.
After the first owner Mike Ahrend had
sold the ride to France, it went on to the
south of Europe; specifically to Spain.
Unfortunately, the “Salto Mortale”, which
had been effectively designed by the
Elfering firm at that time, has lost much
of its former visual glory. Merely a
couple of stars on the arm and the
occasional name sign below the seats
still hint at its German past. ■

CHAOS AIRPORT

Archiv Haberkorn
It will not be long before the
new “Chaos Airport” Funhouse
from Andrea and Mario Haberkorn
from Erfurt will celebrate
its première. Up until now, the
Haberkorn family has been
touring with Continental Pick
stands, a kiddie ride, a pennypusher
and a snack and drink
booth. As they shut down their
large Continental Pick stand
“Gewinn Express” some time
ago, the Haberkorms decided
to have this construction rebuilt
into a Funhouse. Last
year, they eventually came up
with the idea of the “Chaos Airport”
Walkthrough construction.
The renowned Dietz ride
manufacturer from Schwalmstadt
was contracted for the reconstruction.
The theme
design of the attraction is to
depict an airport with a terminal,
a check in, a tower, a conveyor
belt, an aeroplane starting
up, and other details. The
course through the “Chaos Airport”
is to be equipped with
classic Funhouse effects.
From the terminal visitors can
choose between the course
via a slide resembling the escape
hatch of an aeroplane, or
via stairs to get out of the construction.
“Chaos Airport” is to
celebrate its première at the
Autumn Festival in Nürnberg
and will be presented at the
Oktoberfest in Erfurt. ■

Production at KMG will be operating at full capacity
until September 2014. Moreover, the ride
manufacturer announced a new ride concept for
late 2014 / early 2015 – and was pleased with the
delivery of the tenth KMG ride for its loyal Swiss
customer H.P. Maier.
Maier’s novelty called “Super Chaos” is the second
example of the “Sicko” Swing from KMG, and will
make its first appearances in Romanshorn and
Wetzikon in August. According to KMG, Maier’s
“Super Chaos” has been equipped with a number of
special features, such as an additional large name
sign and a sound system from Hofmann. As is well
known, the prototype of the Sicko, the “Air One Maxx”,
went into operation under the management of French
showman Dominique Lerendu last year. On completion
of the “Super Chaos” for H.P. Maier, the
following constructions will be built and completed at
KMG up until the end of the year: one “Speed” each
for Fiesta Shows in the USA, and Golden Way
Amusements in Australia, as well as “Freak Out”
H.P. Maier has already received his
novelty “Super Chaos” (type “Sicko”)
Swings for B&B Amusements (Australia), Alpine
Amusements and Butler Amusements (both USA).
Afterwards new constructions will be built for
customers in Germany, Great Britain, Australia,
Norway and the US up until September 2014. In late
2014 / early 2015, KMG will introduce a new ride
concept, the prototype of which will be delivered to a
customer in Australia.

SPASS-MOBIL
Text & Photos: Uwe Holzmann
At this year’s Schützenfest in Hannover, the
Kirmes & Park Revue had the opportunity to see
“on tour” the “Spass-Mobil” from the Oliver
Steinecker firm from Schwanewede near Bremen.
It is a compact Walkthrough construction with a
front length of 17 metres and a depth of 6 metres,
which was created for both young visitors and
adults - but primarily for families with children -
and went into operation at the Bremerhaven
Freimarkt 2012.
Already in 2011, the plan to build a small Walkthrough
construction was born within the Steinecker family,
who also tour three hook-a-duck constructions
throughout Northern Germany. They came into
contact with Mrs Witte from Hamburg, whose
“Geisterschiff” Walkthrough construction had been
put into storage and was up for sale. Oliver
Steinecker succeeded in convincing Mrs Witte of the
worthiness of his plans, and she finally sold him the
“Geisterschiff”. Energetically supported by his son
Lucas, it took Oliver Steinecker about half a year to
rebuild the construction himself, before the Uwe
Siefert artist workshop carried out the colourful
painting on the construction. When the new attraction
commenced operation, even the previous owner, Mrs
Witte, was highly satisfied with and positively surprised
by the result – an attraction under the motto
“The Large Flower-Power-Family Fun”, providing a
water course with rotating discs and shaking bridges,
an obstacle course through colourfully painted
corridors, and a mirror maze spanning a distance of
some 60 metres. The 1970s design results in a colourful
mix and provides a striking spot of colour on the
fairgrounds.
For the season 2014, there are plans for another
extension of the attraction, according to which the
paybox with an additional corridor is to be moved in
front of the attraction. At the same time, an additional
wagon will be incorporated into the construction,
positioned along its right side. On two levels there will
be further distance and effects added, resulting in the
front length of the construction to extend to a
maximum of 20 metres. This year, Oliver and Bettina
Steinecker, together with their son Lucas, will present
their “Spass-Mobil” at, among other venues, Bremerhaven,
Diepholz, Meppen and Vegesack. ■

At the time of going to press,
the new “Horror Lazarett”
Walkthrough construction
from Lehmann-Weeber was
nearing completion.
As planned, the final steps in
the construction could be
completed on the firm’s
premises in Worms during the
last few weeks, so that the
attraction could be ready for
the first “doctor’s consultations”
at the Erbach Wiesenmarkt.

Currently, everybody in the showman industry
is talking about Technical Park as
the Italian manufacturer will introduce as
many as three ride novelties this year.
The first example of the “Wild Spark” ride with
jumping movements has celebrated a
successful première in Istanbul, Turkey. Due
to the gondolas being newly constructed (of
carbon fibre and equipped with plenty of light,
as well as individual safety restraints) accommodating
three people each, the ride is hard to compare with
similar rides of this type. There are already orders for
another two “Wild Spark” rides; one of them for a
customer in South America and another for Turkey.
Also delivered to Turkey will be the first “Pegasus 16”
example, namely on 30 th August, 2013. A second
version, ordered by a customer in the USA, is currently
being built. With “Pegasus 16”, Technical Park aims
at potential customers interested in presenting an
attraction with a ride pattern differing from the constant
trend towards swing and propeller rides. The same
sales argument applies to the “Aerobat” ride, where
passengers can control their side gondola loopings
themselves. The first two constructions will be delivered
to customers in Turkey and Ukraine.

578 th Crange Kirmes
At a press conference in late April, the Herne
Lord Mayor, Horst Schiereck presented reports
and photos of the 578 th Crange Fair, celebrated
from 2 nd to 11 th August, to media representatives.
The renowned fair event, which enjoys an excellent
reputation at home and abroad, is an
indispensable promotional and economic factor
for the entire region, as money cannot only be
made on the fairground but also out of the fair
event itself. In addition to being an invaluable
advertising medium for the city, it is above all the
suppliers of almost all types of products who
benefit from the event. Moreover, the event leads
to a substantial increase in turnover of public
transport, and the taxi companies also treasure
the fair event.
“When Crange calls, people come; because they
love Crange,” said the Lord Mayor at the opening of
the press conference at the Herne city hall. This
flattering and self-confident statement is
impressively supported by facts regarding the
event. Although the duration of the event will again
be reduced by half a day this year, more than 4
million visitors are expected. Guests have to pass a
five-kilometre front length to see all the fairground
attractions. Visitors to the largest fair event in North-
Rhine Westphalia will be able to enjoy about 500
showmen with well-known and popular attractions,
among them a number of novelties for Crange, as
well as more than 50 ride and Funhouse constructions.

be traded, horse-riding articles will be sold, and a
horse-riding programme will be held. To this day,
the horse market marks the historic origins and
preserves the tradition of the Crange event. While
the ride attractions are still closed on Thursday
evening, the Ruhr region is celebrating its most
extravagant party with all its advantages, but also
disadvantages, at the “Citizen Night” in the Bayernfesthalle
beer tent; the latter much to the detriment
of the showmen, who have to protect their attractions
from vandalism and “wild peeing”. The 578 th 10-
day Crange Fair will eventually be opened on Friday
at 2 p.m. by Lord Mayor Schiereck, accompanied
by famous politicians and sponsors, tapping the
keg inside the festival hall. As star guest at this
year’s opening event, Michael Wendler will create a
party atmosphere inside the Bayernfesthalle beer
tent.
Many Novelties
Even though it is not possible to present only novelty
attractions at an event the size of the Crange Fair,
the organiser succeeded in putting together a very
attractive entertainment contingent that will no
doubt live up to the highest expectations. One of the
most popular photographed motifs will have a new
design this year. The “Circus” Wave-Swinger and
the “Bellevue” Ferris Wheel have already been
photographed together thousands of times. This
year, the Wave-Swinger from Wendler will come to
the Rhein-Herne-Kanal, and the Ferris Wheel will
once again be the landmark towering over the fairground.
The “Parkour” round ride (Aigner) will make
a first-time appearance in Herne, and at the same
time its second appearance in North-Rhine Westphalia.
Other novelties presented will be “The King”
from Zinnecker and Ahrend’s “Flasher”. Originally,
the some 65-metre looping ride was to celebrate its
première already last year. With the “Air Race”
(Bartels/Geibel), it was possible to engage a newly
designed Miami.
Attractive Occupancy
This year Kaiser’s “Rio Rapidos” rafting ride will
provide a welcome cooling down and the “Wildwasserbahn
3” water ride from Löwenthal will also
be presented once again. In the “Loopingschaukel”
(Von Olnhausen) and the “Superhopser” (Weiß)
visitors will experience fairground nostalgia, and
Manfred Howey will celebrate a milestone anniversary
this year, with his “Happy Sailor” appearing
at Crange for the 35th time. An overview of further
ride attractions being presented: “Big Monster”

Club” (Schultz/Häsler), the “Lach+ Freu-Haus”
(Distel), “Psychodelic” (Häsler), “Rotor” (Pluschies),
and the “Super Marci World” (Markmann). The five
dodgem tracks, “Diamond” (Hartkopf/Osselmann),
Schmidt’s “Drive in”, “Millennium Drive” (Quante),
“Starlight” (Petter), and Isken’s “Number 1” will retain
their traditional sites. For the younger visitors,
the Crange Fair will present 13 different kiddie rides
this year. This is a remarkable occupancy with attractions
of all kinds.
Directly at the Crange gate many new fan articles
will be available once again. The 5,000 fair pins
featuring the Crange Fair mascot, available since
April, may again be sold-out after a couple of
opening days. The popular fair and gastronomy
passes, available in an edition of 15,000 pieces
each since early July, provide substantially reduced
prices.
Supporting Programme
According to tradition, there will be two fireworks
displays; one for the opening and another one for
the finale. On the Saturday, the long festival
procession will wind through Herne, and on the Sunday
a church service will be held inside the beer
tent, which will also be the venue for committed
Herne residents on Monday, celebrating children on
Tuesday afternoon, and the coronation of the new
Ruhr King on Tuesday evening. Wednesday will be
the popular Family Day, and the Bild-Festzelthammer
will rock in the Bayernfesthalle beer tent in
the evening. As is tradition, Senior's Day will again
be held on Thursday. The ample variety of wellchosen
additional events will guarantee a substantial
visitor attendance, even on weekdays.
These were the plans at the time of going to press.
This list is not exhaustive and subject to change. ■

reduced prices up until 6 p.m. and
a magnificent fireworks display will
mark the end of the Stoppelmarkt

A LOOK FORWARD
The Plärrer entices
visitors to the Kleinen Exerzierplatz
in Augsburg twice a year
AUGSBURG HERBSTPLÄRRER
Text & Photo: Ralf Schmitt, Rolf Orschel
Poetic Justice: When the Augsburg Osterplärrer
begins, as it always does on a Sunday, the city’s
second major Volksfest, the Herbstplärrer will have
already opened its gates the preceding Friday,
resulting in 17 days of Volksfest fun from 23 rd
August to 8 th September.
As was the case at many other events, this year’s Osterplärrer
in Augsburg suffered from adverse midwinter
weather and loss in turnover. As a general rule, the
Augsburg public loyally returns without fail to the Volksfest
events. At this year’s Herbstplärrer, visitors will be
able to experience as many as three novelties on the fairground.
The major “Flasher” ride from the FTE Ahrend
firm, the “Comic Trip” Miami from Benedikt Hirschberg,
and the “Roll Over” Shake from Patrick Zinnecker will
make their début in Augsburg. They will be joined by
the “Expo Star” Ferris Wheel from Bruch, the Wave-Swinger
from Baumgartner, the “Breakdance” from Karoline
Diebold and the “Geheimnisse des Orients” labyrinth
from Moser. Moreover, the “Rio Rapidos” rafting ride
from Siegfried Kaiser Jnr., which was already presented
at the Osterplärrer 2012, will make another appearance
in Augsburg before it makes its way on to the Munich
Oktoberfest. Naturally, there will also be numerous kiddie
rides and concession stalls within all sectors, and the
gastronomic operations at the Plärrer will offer the usual
spicy specialities and smooth, delicious beer. Opening
hours at the Herbstplärrers: Monday to Friday from midday
to 11 p.m., Saturday from 10:30 a.m. to 11:30 p.m.,
and Sunday from 10:30 a.m. to 11 p.m. By the way,
according to official records, the first Herbstplärrer was
held as far back as 1878 – thus the event is already 135
years old.The Augsburg Plärrer on the Kleinen Exerzierplatz
fairground entices the public twice a year. ■

HISTORY
A painting from the
good old days: Showman
Loosen touring the dodgem
track
On the occasion of the 375 th
anniversary of the Düren Annakirmes,
there were many additional
events added to the usual
line up. This most outstanding
and popular event in the town’s
calendar entices some 1 million
visitors to the fairground on the
Rur banks every year.

Exhibition: Showman Art
The anniversary exhibition is
still open up until the 18 th August
To get the public attuned to the anniversary fair
beginning on 27 th July, the Leopold-Hoesch-
Museum in the Düren town centre presented a
special exhibition. In the museum, many exhibits
were effectively displayed on several floors. The
exhibition, professionally laid out and operated
down to the smallest detail, documented the life and
work of the showmen in the last few centuries. The
exhibits were put together from other museums,
private collections and loans made available by the
showmen. Moreover, private individuals displayed
an ample selection of pictures. Outstanding exhibits
were the Moppen booth (sweets) from 1935 and the
28

historic Swing Boat from 1929. Old dodgem cars,
mounts, artwork, carousel horses, figures and
decoration elements take visitors on an interesting
journey through time. Moreover, many historic
photos from all sections of the showman industry
were effectively presented. A number of old fairground
models in various scales rounded off the
well-worthwhile exhibition. In addition to the
stationary objects, there were also moving pictures.
In the exhibition rooms films from the Düren Annakirmes
throughout the last few decades were
presented, providing a 'goose pimply' atmosphere.
Visitors were astounded by the attractions that have
appeared in Düren throughout the past decades.
Historic Fair
Another highlight to mark the anniversary fair was a
historic fair held around the Leopold-Hoesch-
Museum from 28 th June to 7 th July. Rides presented
were the “Selbstfahrer”, a nostalgic Chair-o-Plane,
the “Moulin Rouge” show booth, a nostalgic Ferris

carousel from the Katzschmann family from Mittweida
in Saxony, which was presented in North-
Rhine Westphalia for the first time. The Kirmes &
Park Revue has already published a detailed report
about this carousel. Nonetheless, its unique and
lovingly made mounts are always well worth seeing.
Even the original sandman made his rounds in a
helicopter. One can only congratulate the town of
Düren on both events, giving a first-class presentation
of the history of the showman industry and the
Düren Annakirmes.

Funfair atmosphere with
old organs
On the occasion of the 75 th anniversary of the
Stuttgart Frühlingsfest this year, visitors were
able to be taken on a journey through the
history of the event as a result of a large
number of loans provided by the showmen from
the “Ländle”, as Baden-Württemberg is lovingly
called by its residents. The Historic Wasen
gave visitors free-of-charge insights into the
history of the colourful and fascinating world of
the showman industry.
From 20 th April to 9 th May between 1 p.m. and 8
p.m., visitors had the opportunity to get a look into
the good old days and gather numerous impressions
of the fairgrounds from the year dot. On an
area of some 1,200 square metres, the showmen
presented historic tractors and caravans, Galloper
mounts, fairground organs, carousel decoration,
advertising posters and an exhibition tent displaying
snapshots and countless pictures. Most of
them were black-and-white photos larded with
many stories of showmen and their families.
Wasen fans were also given an understanding of
sound and informative details. The exhibition was
very well received, and despite decreasing visitor
numbers due to the weather, the Historic Wasen
was a big success. Coming from the car park area,
it was located directly at the entrance to the festival
grounds, where a large number of pictures and
photos on the fences enticed visitors to the exhibition.
Passing through the festively decorated
entrance gate, visitors found themselves in the
middle of the exhibition. Immediately, their attention
was drawn to a beautiful and well-kept
“salon caravan” from Heinrich Mack, which showed
the limited space showmen on tour used to live
in. The caravan was built for the Rick firm from
32

HISTORY
Old mounts spread a
nostalgic flair
The way showmen lived
earlier when touring
Hannover in 1927, and was given to Roland Koch
as a wedding present in the 1960s.
Today his son Thomas Koch is the owner of this
gem, which was lovingly restored and is not
exhibited very often. Various historic fairground
organs accompanied the event with their classic
tunes. A special example was placed in the
entrance area of the tent. It was built by the Ruth
und Sohn firm and presented itself in perfect
condition. Both older and younger visitors lingered
and stayed in front of it for a long time to listen to
the music.
The large number of tractors and traction units
were also much admired and examined. On show
were several different examples once used to
transport the attractions from one fairground to
another. Among the typical showman traction units
from that time numbered, for example, the 40-HP
Hanomag R40, built in 1948 and the 1950s Deutz
built by the Klöckner-Humboldt-Deutz AG, which is
lovingly preserved and cared for by Robert Lehmann.
A visual highlight was the Lanz Bulldog HR
7 from 1939. Another much admired vehicle was a
Kramer all-wheel-drive, still requiring some restoration.
Panels provided a lot more information than
only HP, drive and braking systems. In the outside
area, there was a number of more modern traction
units used for transport to this very day, such as an
MB Actros 1851 from the showman enterprise
Joachim Kritz & Sohn.
Tradition continued inside the festival tent, where
several precious objects and many requisites were
exhibited, showing the history of the showman
industry from the 19 th century to this day. Moreover,
a number of old dodgem track chaises, swing
boats, wooden horses, and historic, original front

HISTORY
Tradition continues in
the festival tent
An aerial view of the
Wasen in the 70s
parts with the name sign “Der wilde Weinberg”
could be admired. Many pictures on the walls
showed the development of the dodgem tracks
and also different Switchbacks, which used to be
built only from wood. Also exhibited were some
modern ride and funhouse attractions, which
provided an appealing contrast. The king-sized
“showman book” containing photos of regional
showman families and their ride attractions may
well have been a unique exhibit. A lot of background
information on different showman generations,
valuable information about the years the
individual attractions were bought right up to today
– everything was listed in chronological order.
There was even a detailed overview of the number
of Ghost rides from the Lehmann family. In addition
to the “Geister Schlange” known today, photos of
the “Geister Grotte”, the “Geister Schlucht”, and
the “Geister Burg” documented the host of attractions
from the family enterprise. Moreover, there
were many photos from the Fritz Kinzler family,
regularly presenting current and breath-taking
rides in Stuttgart, ranging from the “Ski Lift”
purchased in 1963, the “Jumbo Jet” from 1970, the
“Looping Star” (1978), the “Korkenzieher-Achterbahn”,
and the “Heartbreaker” (1980) to the
current “Breakdance No. 1”. In addition to the ride
and funhouse attractions there were also pictures
from many a snack and sweets booth.
The Historic Wasen was a successful exhibition
with many relics and documents from the good old
days, mainly collected and arranged by the showmen
Stefan Kinzler, Joachim Kritz, Nico Lustenauer,
and Roland Maier.

GASTRONOMY
SLUSH & EIS FACTORY

Norman Vogt
New: The “Slush & Eis
Factory” from Jasmin Scherrle
At the Würzburg Frühjahrsvolksfest,
Jasmin Scherrle from Stuttgart
opened her new “Slush &
Eis Factory” attraction. After the
so-called “pre-opening” in
Würzburg, the attraction was
officially inaugurated at the subsequent
venue, the Frühlingsfest
in Stuttgart.
The young woman has been touring
as an independent showwoman
for nine years now. Four
generations of her family have already
travelled with ice cream wagons to many prestigious
events throughout the entire federal territory.
The new sales wagon was built by the Dietz firm
according to the suggestions and ideas of the customer.
Its modern visual appearance with ice cream
and slush motifs in the front area is highly appealing,
and the gearwheels in the upper front area, emphasizing
the “factory” theme, are an eye catcher. After sundown,
the LED and neon lighting make a very harmonious
impression, and the interior lighting of the
“Slush & Eis Factory” is equipped with day and night
mode settings. For the first time, the Dietz firm has incorporated
a remote-controlled “Mover-System”,
retracting both axles into an attraction. As a result, the
sales wagon can be hydraulically lowered to the
ground without a problem. Apart from various types of
ice cream, the product range also includes the
“Factory Twister Eis” which can optionally be mixed
with Smarties, roasted almonds, biscuits or fresh fruits
in a kind of shaker. Also offered are refreshing slush
drinks in many flavours and different sizes. The
première in Stuttgart was followed by appearances in
Freiburg, Nördlingen, Pforzheim and Würzburg. This
season, Jasmin Scherrle will present her new attraction
in, among other venues, Hof, Crailsheim and at the
Cannstatt Wasen in Stuttgart. The wagon has ground
measurements of 7 x 3.50 metres, a height of 6.20
metres, and a power demand of 20 kW.

Thomas Schmidt with
Melanie Rick-Schmidt (l.) and
his daughter Denise
Thomas Schmidt from Bremen
opened in November last year
his rustic style mobile bar
"Waldhütte" built by the Dietz
Fahrzeugbau firm, at the new
Mannheim "Märschenwald"
Christmas Market.
The attraction which naturally is
also used on Volksfests and other events, is built as
a container on a wagon, is hydraulically folded, and
offers place for up to 20 guests. Standing and
sitting possibilities invite visitors to linger
and enjoy. The sitting area is comfortable
with stools that are covered with artificial fur
that emphasis the flair of a "forest hut". The
outside area during the première in Mannheim
was orientated on the theme "fairytale
forest" with the roof windows installed at an
angle.
Moose "Manni" quickly became the public's darling,
humming lively songs from under the roof. ■

EXOTIC
Since summer 2012 in
Germany: Nickel’s
“Fliegender Teppich”
In the summer of 2012, Romano
Nickel from Ingelheim took over
a “Fliegender Teppich” ("Flying
Carpet") from the Schäfer family
from Switzerland. In Germany,
this ride type is primarily associated
with the construction of
the same name built by Zierer.
The “Fliegende Teppich” from
Nickel, however, was built by the
former Italian manufacturer SDC
– and thereby is a truly exotic
ride.

partner Jessica Frankholz
Under the management of its previous owner
Schäfer, the ride built in 1984 was a very
popular guest at many events in Switzerland, and
that was one of the reasons why he remained true to
it for almost 30 years. The SDC attraction is slightly
similar in construction to the carpet version created
by the German Fähtz firm. In contrast to other
carpet examples, its gondola accommodating 40
people is completely roofed. The ride was built onto
two trailers, which are incorporated into the
construction. Building up the 20 x 8 metre construction,
which according to the manufacturer has
electrical requirements of 180 kW and a height of 14
metres, requires a small crane. The backflash,
featuring typical oriental motifs from the Arabian
Nights legend, comes from the 1980s. The missing
name sign is currently being rewired and is to be
mounted in the near future.

As a special feature, the
gondola accommodating 40

For Romano Nickel, who
operates the attraction together
with his partner Jessica
Frankholz, it is the first ride that
the couple have owned. After
the takeover last year, the
attraction was built up on the
premises before it was presented at a small event in
Bendorf for the first time. Behind the backflash,
there are two electrical control boxes holding the
entire electronic control system for the ride sequence
and the lighting system. Both drive motors
are located on the two supports, to which the arms
are mounted. In addition to other planned changes,
the backflash is also to be newly painted before too
long. By the way, the gap in the backflash originally
used to be the exit. Nowadays however, passengers
embark and disembark in the front section.
While it takes one day to build up, dismantling is
accomplished within 7 to 8 hours. Romano Nickel will
tour this Italian version of the “Fliegender Teppich”
mainly throughout South-West Germany. ■ Side view during the

KIDDIE RIDES
Robert Hoffmann’s
new purchase: the kiddie
ride “Abenteuerland”
At the Wurzen Frühlingsfest,
showman Robert Hoffmann from
Schkeuditz presented his newly
purchased used kiddie track ride
“Abenteuerland” for the first
time.

Diana Neutzsch
In October 2011, Robert Hoffmann founded his
own showman business with the “Formel 1
Monaco” kiddie track ride he took over from his
grandfather, showman Hans Dieter Splitt. Originally,
this kiddie ride had been a kiddie dodgem track
built by the Ihle firm in Bruchsal for the showman
enterprise Levi/Stoner. In the early 1980s, the
kiddie dodgem track was rebuilt into a kiddie track
ride by a ride manufacturer in Spain, with the track
and the course platform being integrated into the
former dodgem track. After its completion, the
“Formel 1 Monaco” caused a veritable 'kiddie track
ride boom' in Germany, together with the “Zauberwelt”
from the Levy showman enterprise, the first
kiddie track ride touring throughout Germany,
which had also been rebuilt from a kiddie dodgem
track in Spain. The Levy/Stoner firm operated the
kiddie ride for about 7 years before it was taken
over by Hans Dieter Splitt in the early 1990s, who
went on to successfully operate the construction
for more than 20 years. After the takeover, Robert
Hoffmann loaded the kiddie track ride on a threeaxle
roller. Due to the lack of space, he occasionally
builds up the construction without a roof, which
is quite risky though, as water finds its way into the
upper track in rain. “Formel 1 Monaco” has ground
measurements of 18.5 x 10 metres and electrical
requirements of 40 kW.
Takeover at the Beginning of 2013
Early this year, Robert Hoffmann took over the
“Abenteuerland” kiddie track ride, built for the
Augsburg showman Josef Diebold by the Dietz
firm in Schwalmstadt in 1997, in order to be more

KIDDIE RIDES
“Formel 1 Monaco”
is presented without a roof
flexible on tour and to expand his business. As the
construction was handed over in first-class
condition, no technical or visual overhaul was required.
It will not be long though before several
additional decoration elements will be mounted, to
give the kiddie track ride a distinctly personal
touch. Due to a staff and baggage container being
built on an interchangeable flat-bed unit hauled by
a traction unit, relocating the kiddie track ride requires
only one transport. Robert Hoffmann presents
the two kiddie track rides together with his
girlfriend Diana Neutzsch, mainly at Volksfest
events in Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt, Thuringia and
Brandenburg. “Abenteuerland” has ground
measurements of 14 x 7.5 metres and electrical
requirements of 40 kW.

SALZBURG
Text & Photo: Claudia Castellazzi
Over the years, the Salzburg Dult, known as the
largest Volksfest in Western Austria, has become a
well-established event. This year, the event celebrated
a special anniversary, namely, the 40 th Dult
held in the Salzburg exhibition centre, where everything
was dedicated to a fair section, festival halls,
market merchants, partying and numerous special
events for nine days, from 18 th to 26 th May.
Despite the sometimes rainy and stormy weather, the
event enticed 131,000 visitors, much to the delight of
the organiser, “Our region is not frightened off by low
temperatures!” This year, a long procession with more
than 650 members of the association followed by an
opening ceremony with 500 guests of honour directly
at the fairground heralded the beginning of the Salzburg
Volksfest. Even this opening march through the
medieval city centre caused a furore, due not least to
the large number of spectators. It's not for nothing that
the Salzburg Dult is known as the largest Volksfest in
Western Austria, as visitors were not only awaited by
more than 160 showmen, market merchants and
booths, but also enthralled by a well-thought-out and
attractive supporting programme for nine days, be it
the Traditional Costumes Day, Family Day, Fire Brigade
Day, Seniors' Day, or the Country Weekend held on the
second Dult weekend. The Dult organisers succeeded
in attracting all kinds of target groups to the festival
area and in creating a real synergy between the
festival halls, fairground and market hall. Particularly
well-received by the exhibitors and the showmen were
the promotional tools with a voucher booklet, the expanded
family programme and the company events.
As a result, fixed bookings for the Dult from renowned
companies could be extended and increased. “We
owe the large number of bookings to the reopened
market hall with free entry, the good live musical acts,
the culinary delicacies inside the festival halls and the
frenetic sales talks in the run-up to the Dult,” said
Michaela Glinz, in charge of the Dult, which will be held
from 7 th to 15 th June next year.

NEUWIED
The fairground was more
appealing than in the previous
years
Text & Photo: Michael Petersen
The Heddesdorf Pfingstkirmes, held from 17 th to
21 st May this year, combines ancient customs with
a modern fair event. Every year, the well-known
and popular event entices not only the residents,
but also many guests from the surrounding
towns, to the Pfingstwiese-fairground.
It must be said though, that the unpaved fairground
is in a desolate condition. For some years now the
showmen have fought in vain for improved
conditions of the fairground, but due to empty
coffers there is unlikely to be any improvement in the
near future. Moreover, there have been ongoing rumours
that due to a garden show, the complete area,
or at least a large part of it, will fairly soon no longer
be available for events. For the second time now the
fair event already began on the Friday before Pentecost,
and closed on the following Tuesday evening.
To mark the traditional opening on Saturday, the Heddesdorf
fraternity and the Pfingstreiter (Pentecost
Riders) invited the public to the “Nobersch Bank”,
whereas the second part of the opening was
celebrated on the fairground afterwards. Two heavy
horses drew a decorated festival wagon followed by
the Pfingstreiter Burschenschaften (Pentecost Rider
fraternities), local politicians, the showmen and
many guests. Afterwards, the event was officially
opened by the Mayor tapping the keg and the traditional
cannon salute. The closing day was once
again completely dedicated to the Pfingstreiter. At 10
a.m. they set out for the Pfingstritt (Pentecost Ride)
at the “Vadderdach” on Bimsstraße, from where they
first ride to Rommersdorf and then on to Engers,
where the riders collect their tribute around noon.
This way, an ancient tradition of the Heddesdorf
fraternities and the Engers Bürgerverein (Engers
resident association) is preserved. Too bad though
that the Pfingstreiter do not celebrate their own party
42

with music, dancing, and food and drink on the
Pfingstwiese-fairground.
This year’s Pentecost Fair was much more attractive
than in the last few years, with some 70 showmen
presenting their attractions on the 15,000-m 2 fairground.
Most prominent among them were the cosy
beer gardens, which were very well received.
The area was effectively laid out as a classic circuit
course. The “Movie Star” Ferris Wheel (Henschel)
provided its passengers with a perfect view of the
attractions offered, namely the “Spinning Racer”
coaster (Bruch), “Circus Circus” (Bruch/Gründler),
“High” (Oberschelp), “Flash” (Weber), “Turbo Force”
(Schäfer), and Dodgem Track (Meyer). With the
“Pirates Adventure” (Schneider), “Remmi Demmi”
(Janßen), “Panic Room” (Lemoine), and the “Motodrom”
(Ganslmeier), there was something of a
surfeit of attractions from the show and fun sector.
The event was intensively and prominently advertised,
with large advertising billboards being put up
mainly in the more frequented areas. Well worth
praising was the advertising campaign organised by
the showmen Lanser, Schunk, Bruch and Meyer in
the Neuwied and Heddesdorf pedestrian precincts,
where 90 large gingerbread hearts placed in the
retailers’ shop windows promoted the Pentecost Fair.
The stakes for next year's event are quite high now.
However, visitor numbers proved that the Pentecost
Fair certainly presents strong potential. The challenge
now is to keep up the standard achieved. ■

SCHIFFERSTADT
Text & Photos:
Norman Vogt
Schifferstadt is located in the Rhine-Neckar metropolis
region, in the heart of the Central Palatinate.
Every year in early June, the 20,000-resident town celebrates
its Rettichfest, or Radish Festival. The name
comes from the fact that Schifferstadt is one of the
largest radish growing areas in Germany. This year,
the festival began on 31 st May and ended on 4 th June.
After the opening, the supporting programme, which
changes daily, offered an ample choice of events once
again this year. Be it the traditional Rettichlauf on Saturday,
the open shopping Sunday, or the Family Day on
the last opening day, they all spurred visitors to take part.
Unfortunately, this was not reflected by the showmen’s
revenues, which were given as quite poor at the close of
the event. However, this was not new for the participating
showmen, who have experienced a steady decrease
in visitor numbers and therefore also in turnover, for some
time now. However, it must be said that the promotion of
the event was woefully inadequate; one would imagine
that a respectable placement of advertising in the local
press and a satisfactory poster promotion would have
been quite “manageable”. On the fairground a number
of appealing ride attractions was presented once again.
For the second time, Wingender’s “Air Crash” appeared
in Schifferstadt. In addition to a nostalgic dodgem track
visitors encountered the “Himalaya” Switchback from
Michael Spangenberger as well as the “Break Dance”
(Spangenberger). The younger visitors enjoyed two
classic rides and a bungee construction, and the fairground
was replete with booths and stalls. ■

OBERHAUSEN-STERKRADE
Text: Michael Petersen

The opening day of this year’s Sterkrade Fronleichnamskirmes,
held from 29 th May to 3 rd June,
suffered from heavy rainfall. The fairground holy
eve, highly popular with the Sterkrade citizens,
was “washed away”. Heavy downpours and
autumn temperatures spoiled the usually happy
fairground atmosphere.
Nevertheless, a few tireless visitors met at “their”
beverage stalls and resolutely remained there, as
only very few visitors wanted to stroll across the fairground.
While the gastronomic operations attained
at least some revenues, the other participants earned
hardly any money at all. Rain was followed by
sunshine though, and the fairground was virtually
besieged by masses of visitors on Thursday. From
the city and from all over the Ruhr region visitors
rushed to the Sterkrade district to happily celebrate.
The rides operated to the limits of
their capacity and the sales stalls
and gastronomic operations were
quite crowded. On Corpus
Christi Day, not only did the sky
brighten up but also the mood of
the showmen. In the following
days, Sterkrade was spared any
rainfall and the fairground was
very well attended. Therefore,
the review of the fair was quite
positive. According to the organiser,
visitor attendance was up on
the previous year, exceeding the
one million mark. However, the
financial results achieved are
much more important than visitor
numbers.
The largely successful layout of
the Corpus Christi Day Fair
matched up to expectations. The
novelty attraction “Alpen-Hotel” would certainly
have been more effective on a top-end site though.
Markmann’s “Octopussy” was built up on the site
where the “Krake” has already made successful
appearances several times. Due to this arrangement,
the attraction could not provide a novelty
effect however. With only one side of the ramp between
the market and the station being occupied
this year, this area was better presented and less
crowded. The fair attractions usually being presented
in this area were built up near the station this time.
Also interesting were corresponding entries in the
fairground forums on the Internet, which revealed
the common desire for a changed layout of the fairground.
The market and the Hirschhügel fairgrounds
were particularly criticised. Some one
million visitors seemed not to be bothered, however.
From Thursday they celebrated the traditional
Corpus Christi Day Fair with the benefit of perfect
weather.

BIELEFELD

From 24 th to 26 th May, the 40 th Leineweber-Markt took
place in the Bielefeld city centre. The city festival
was held for the first time in 1974, when it marked
three occasions; namely, the 25 th anniversary of the
German Basic Law, the visit of then Federal
President Gustav Heinemann and the beginning of
a Berlin Week for showmen, trade and gastronomy.
Since 1975, the city festival is called “Leineweber-
Markt”.
The three-day event is organised by the Bielefeld
Marketing GmbH. On six stages and three action
areas, more than 1,000 actors offered a first class programme.
The colourful mixture of live music, street magicians,
acrobats and fairground attractions, as well as
the offering of many interesting delicacies, was well
received by the visitors. While a nostalgic market with
Nessel’s horse carousel and the nostalgic Ferris Wheel
from Feldmann was held on Jahnplatz, Krause’s Musik-
Express and the “Formel 1” dodgem track (Schneider)
awaited the public at the city hall. At the Kunsthalle the
“Movie Star” Ferris Wheel from Henschel provided
visitors with a view across Bielefeld, and the Jodokus
Kirchplatz accommodated a medieval market for the
first time. The younger visitors were able to enjoy a
pony ride, walking-waterballs and various kiddie rides
built up in the city centre. A number of sweet stalls,
games and sales booths rounded of the entertainment
contingent. Unfortunately, the planned target of
300,000 visitors was not achieved. According to the
organiser, adverse weather conditions – continuous
rain and low temperatures – resulted in noticeably
fewer visitors coming to the 40 th Leineweber-Markt. ■

HALVER
Text & Photo: Michael Petersen
“Things never turn out the way you expect” – a
saying that perfectly defines the changed selection
of attractions presented at the Halver Kirmes
(31 st May to 3 rd June). There were significant
changes in the list of participants published by the
Halver city authorities, due to the cancellation at
short notice by the rafting ride and three other previously
announced attractions.
With neither the “Tornado”, “Scheibenwischer” and
“Sky-Flyer”, nor the “Raftingbahn” (heralded as the
main attraction to appear at Halver), the usually
perfectly laid out fairground offered noticeable failings
this time. Bonner’s “Breakdance”, the newly
added “Twister” from Freiwald, and the “Sky Glider”
(Prumbaum) for example, were built up in direct
vicinity to each other on limited space, while no large
ride attraction at all was presented on Hauptstraße.
The “Miami” from Freiwald stepped in as a replacement
on the site in front of Sparkasse building, with
Weber’s “Rocket” taking its passengers high up to the
sky on the top-end site. Built up in the area of the
former railway station were the “Drive in” dodgem
track (Schmidt) and the “Booster” (Havermann-Spelbrink).
Moreover, visitors were able to enjoy the
Simulator and once again the Musik Express from
Wendler erected on the former loading platform, with
the Musik Express being partially hidden by the
large “Happy Family” Funhouse from Heine. Built up
with its narrow side facing the circuit, the latter was
not very effective though; certainly an avoidable layout
misjudgement.
Cancellations and Layout Misjudgement
In short, there were many inconsistencies in Halver.
Not everything can be excused
by cancellations, however.
One would be well-advised
not to contract ride attractions
that are not already on
tour!
Due to good weather conditions,
the showmen - who also
benefited from the slightly
lower number of ride attractions
offered - achieved
satisfying results. One can
only hope that Halver will be
spared from cancellations
next year so that the citycentre
fair can be laid out
according to its usual quality
standard.

Even prior to the event the arrangement was just
perfect, promising the most attractive fairground
for years, a new and reliable beer tent operator, as
well as the “Oberfrankenausstellung” consumer
fair with free entry. However, rainfall and low temperatures
quickly shattered all hopes for an outstanding
and enjoyable event.
In the end, Jan Kempgens and Marc Ermer from the organising
“Bayreuth Marketing & Tourismus GmbH” were
quite disappointed, as the dismal weather gave rise to
disastrous results. They were however quite satisfied
with the choice of the new beer tent patron, Jochen Mörz
from Allgäu, who really hit it off well with the people in
Upper Franconia. His daughter Nadine Mörz, in charge
of the organization and management, enthused about
a cooperative partnership lasting well into the future.
While the strong demand for food, especially for traditional
hax'n spiced pork and cheese was a surprise for
her, she was at the same time critical of the burgeoning
choice of snack booths on the fairground. Jan Kempgens,
for whom it was his eleventh Volksfest as the fifth
beer tent patron, understandably hopes for a more permanent
solution with regard to the participating publicans.
Although there was no Ferris Wheel on the fairground,
it was nonetheless the most common motif in all
advertising media. The fairground was characterised
by three major rides; namely, Goetzke’s “Star Flyer”,
Ahrend’s “Flasher” and “Der Burner” from Zinnecker, as
well as Vorlop’s large coaster “Rock & Roller”. The show
and fun sector was conspicuously represented by the
boxing booth from Lemoine-Heinen, Fellerhoff’s
“Geisterstadt”, Hofmann-Jehn’s “Freddy’s Company”,
and Kinzler’s “Omni”. Highly successful was the festival
procession at the beginning of the event, which is growing
ever longer and boasting more participants every
year. Both the opening fireworks display on Friday and
the one held at the finale on the eleventh opening day
were accompanied by rainfall. What a pity.

WUPPERTAL
Text & Photos:
Michael Petersen
The second Wuppertal Mega Fair was held with
the benefit of almost impeccable fairground
weather from 7 th to 10 th June. Several thousands
of visitors rushed to the stadium at the zoo to
celebrate a peaceful, four-day Volksfest event.
“It was a peaceful family event that exceeded all our
expectations,” Peter Fuhrmann, Chairman of the
Wuppertal Showman Association summarized the 2 nd
Wuppertal Mega Fair in his review. The Showman
Association did not rest on its laurels with regard to
the success of the première fair, but further increased
the already high advertising budget, particularly as
the novelty effect of the fairground had already been
exhausted. Preparations for the 2 nd edition of the event
began right after last year’s fair. The event was once
again scheduled for the second Sunday after Corpus
Christi Day, immediately after the Sterkrade
Fronleichnamskirmes. In response to popular
demand a section of the additional football pitch was
also built up on this time. Preparations for the Wuppertal
fair focussed on extensive advertising
measures including 650 posters, huge displays put up
at the cable car stations and 31 commercials on the
local radio stations, as well as advertisements placed
in the Westdeutsche Zeitung newspaper. The event
was closely covered by the Wuppertal press and radio
stations even during the build up, and was even
covered live from the fairground by the regional WDR
television station in its series “Lokalzeit Bergisch
Land”. From some 500 applications received after the
invitation for tender, 100 of them arriving only two
weeks before the opening, it was possible to engage
the “Spinning Racer” from Bruch as the main attraction.
Thus a large coaster eventually came to the
‘cable car city’ once again after a break of 30 years.
The coaster quickly turned into the promotional
emblem for the fair, soaring 55-metres high up into the
sky in close proximity to the cable car from Tuesday
on.
The area on the Wupper was successfully laid out
once again, with the “Pirates Adventure” (Schneider)
and the “Venezianische Pferdekarussell” (Langenberg)
built up directly in front of the cable car station.
The first site inside the stadium accommodated the
“Kettenflieger” (Fuhrmann), “Booster Maxxx G4”
(Hoefnagels/Denies), a kiddie carousel, and the
“Circus Circus” from Bruch/Gründler. The “Saturn-
Flieger” from Bauer was once again placed in front of
the stadium stand, and in the section constituted by
the additional football pitch, visitors encountered a
kiddie ride and the mega “Konga” Swing from Küchenmeister
- another novelty for Wuppertal - and the
aforementioned “Spinning Racer” Coaster caused
quite a furore directly on the pitch. Also presented at
the event was the Simulator from Sterzenbach.
Novelties to be admired among the concession stalls
were Plesser’s Brezel, von der Gathen’s Arcade
Machine, Ritter’s Bar and “Marktplatz Nr. 1”, to name
but a few. The opening day turned out to be a the first
highlight, with the crowd quickly filling the fairground
even in the afternoon, leaving barely any room to
move for the new synchronous fireworks display in the
evening. Saturday however suffered from the hot
weather, which kept visitors from attending the fairground.
On Sunday, the fairground was once again
well frequented, just as on the Family Day on Monday.
The second Wuppertal Mega Fair was opened by DSB
President Albert Ritter. Throughout the quiet event the
police did not have to deal with any fights, thefts, or
damage to property. There were not even any
complaints about the noise and positively worth
mentioning was the fact that showmen left the fairground
well-swept and clean.
Summary: a four-day family-friendly fair without any
unpleasant incidents, ideal fairground weather, satisfied
showmen, and enthralled visitors. Truly, the 2 nd
Wuppertal Mega Fair was real fun! All in all, the costly
advertising measures, almost reaching the financial
limits of the Showman Association, have paid off in
numerous ways, bringing the event into the gaze of
the Wuppertal public for this one, fun week. ■

MAINZ
“Der Burner” from Zinnecker
was one of the very
popular attractions in Mainz
Visitors had a wonderful
view over the Rhine in the
Ferris Wheel from Göbel
Text & Photos: Norman Vogt
Those who think that carnival is the only event
happily celebrated in Mainz are quite wrong. The
Johannisnacht event, which was held from 21 st to
24 th June this year, is highly popular with the
“Meenern” - as Mainz residents are affectionately
called. Therefore it is not surprising that the city
centre and the banks of the Rhine are buzzing with
activity and that the party goes on far into the night
for four days.
Not only locals like to go to their festival, but indeed
people come from all over the entire greater region to
join in an excess of fun and frolics. Undoubtedly, the
fact that some 500,000 visitors are welcomed to the 4-
day event every year speaks for itself. The Johannisnacht
is organised by the Mainz city authorities, who
also choose the attractions presented at its largest fair
event every year. The event offered a harmonious
mixture once again, and this year enjoyed sunny, dry
weather and pleasant temperatures. Therefore it was
no wonder that visitors rushed to the festival area and
enjoyed the fine entertainment contingent.
On the Saturday evening there was barely any room
left in the city area and visitors had to have a lot of time
and patience. The programme offered typical Johannisnacht
attractions, such as the jolly and watery
“printers baptism”, also known as Gautschen (an
ancient trade guild custom, according to which the
sins of the years of apprenticeship and the lead dust
is washed off), as well as theatre, cabaret, jugglers, live
musical acts on six stages, the cabaret night, the
Johannis book market and the artist market on the
banks of the Rhine.
Among the ride and funhouse attractions spread along
the banks of the Rhine and in the city centre, were a
number of novelties to be tried out. Zinnecker’s “Der
Burner”, with long queues forming in front of its
operator stand after sundown numbered among the
most spectacular among them. Another new feature
and also very well frequented was Fellerhoff’s “Geisterstadt”
attraction, which provided a creepy atmosphere
and was built up in Mainz for the first time.
Göbel’s Ferris Wheel, numbered among the regular
guests in Mainz, as did the “Super-Wellenflug”, which
provided visitors with a magnificent view across the
Rhine. The selection of attractions built up on the
banks of the Rhine was rounded off by Sottile’s
“Simulator”, Barth’s “Skooter“, Wingender’s “Break
Dance” and various kiddie rides. In the city centre,
visitors encountered further kiddie rides, as well as the
“Aqua Velis” Walkthrough construction from Hofmann
and the “Show Time” show booth from Haas, which
was slightly hidden away and could not be discovered
at first glance. Well worth seeing was the fireworks
display on the Rhine, which was held on Monday and
heralded the closing of the 46 th Johannisnacht event.
The festival was a great success for all the participants,
and after the long, lean period with snow, rain and low
temperatures in spring, satisfying financial results
were eventually achieved again. “I would not mind if
this went on up until the Christmas Markets,” said a
good-humoured ride owner – starting up his fully
occupied ride.

management of Mario Siewiera from Quedlinburg.
After a promising start, the public’s interest in the
event noticeably dwindled after Family Day.
What does the popular tourist destination with its wellpreserved
historic town centre and its elaborately
restored timber-framed houses offer? The well-known
sights, such as the town hall on the market square -
which was officially documented for the first time in
1277 and ranks among the most beautiful town halls
in Europe - the leaning house, the smallest house, the
oldest house and the castle, the latter majestically
enthroned above the town, entice masses of
domestic and foreign guests at any time of the year.
While there were pushing crowds in the pedestrian
precinct at the time of our visit on the second Saturday,
the fairground on the castle car park in Halberstädter
Straße (properly paved) only a few minutes’
walk away, was not really such a crowd puller. Due to
generally low visitor attendance, the showmen have
not attached great importance to the Volksfest events
in Wernigerode for some time now. As a result, it was
no surprise that only three large attractions were presented
this year; namely, Hermann’s “Magic”, Welte’s
“Jaguar” and the labyrinth “Atlantis – Die versunkene
Stadt” (Siewiera/Drechsler). The younger visitors were
able to enjoy Eckermann’s kiddie railway, the kiddie
track ride from Pönitz, and the horse carousel from
Drechsler/Siewiera. Moreover, a Continental Pick
stand, a bowling alley, a ball throwing stall and a
shooting gallery were built up in the circuit course,
along with two snack booths and a sweets stall that
provided visitors with food and drinks. Despite the low
number of visitors during the second half of the
summer festival, the participating showmen fared
quite well due to relatively short journeys. ■

On the eleventh and final opening day of the largest
Volksfest event in Lower Franconia, the showmen
were well satisfied with their financial results.
After bitter disappointments at previous events,
such as in Erlangen and Bayreuth, business proved
much better in Schweinfurt.
With 58 attractions - among them “real highlights”,
such as Bruch’s “Alpina-Bahn”, Blume’s “Tower Event
Center” and Lehmann’s “Geister-Schlange” - the fairground
on Niederwerrner Straße was well occupied.
Moreover, the Ahrend firm had built up its “Flasher” for
particularly daring visitors. The Bavarian State Exhibition,
under the motto “Main and Sea”, will entice
visitors to the 'city of ball bearings' up until October,
and for Frank Reppert, head of the organising Office
of Public Order and Environment and concerned very
much with the issue of water consumption, it made
sense to adopt an “aquatic theme” for the 104 th Volks-

fest event. Examples for this approach were Markmann’s
“The Real Nessy” swing and his “Aqua-Labyrinth”,
Krug’s “Beachwalking”, Henn’s “Lustige Seewelt”,
Howey’s “Happy Sailor”, and Ahrend’s “Käpt’n
Jimmy” – unfortunately, the latter two were placed
directly opposite each other. Many cities have already
had to cope with the withdrawal of the Americans, and
now it is Schweinfurt’s turn. As a result, huge areas will
be available for new purposes. Even a new fairground
altogether is being considered, even though there are
at present no details, and currently, nobody is particularly
eager to move location. Very well established
is the “Comedy-Frühschoppen” (morning beer and
comedy show) with free entry to the Hahn beer tent and
an exquisite performance by the impersonator, Wolfgang
Krebs. Another two classic promotional media
for the Schweinfurt Volksfest have lost none of their
appeal; namely the lottery inside the beer tent (1 st
prize: a cruise in the Caribbean) and the 16-page
Volksfest paper as an insert in the daily press at the
beginning of the Volksfest. Positively noticeable was
the expansion of the so far limited toilet facilities by
Helmut Dölle and his hygiene team. Robert Orth,
contact person for the showmen of many years standing
- legendary for always finding a solution to their
problems - on the occasion of his resignation, received
fulsome praise from the mayor in his opening
address, evoking a long and well-deserved applause. ■
ASCHAFFENBURG
“The King” – one of the
countless novelties at
Aschaffenburg
Text & Photos: Norman Vogt
Before the popular Aschaffenburg Volksfest
(open until 24 th June) could start on 14 th June,
there was some commotion within the organising
body, the Aschaffenburg Kongress and Touristikbetrieben,
as due to continuous rain, the Main
River breached its banks, flooding the fairground.
And once the floods had receded and the first showmen
had assembled their attractions, the water
came back again. At this point in time, the beer tent
from Franz Widmann, the large water ride from
Löwenthal, as well as a number of games booths had
already been built up. Some showmen were able to
remove their booths in time and the city authorities
succeeded in dismantling their power boxes, before
the river level rose again. The expert surfboarder
Philipp Schramm used the Main flood to race across
the water-flooded fairground accompanied by a
camera. Towed by a car, he presented acrobatic
tricks – and the local press reported on the “Crazy
50

Trip” across the fairground. After the water had
slowly receded and the fairground was reasonably
dry again, the 75 operations were able to build up on
the 40,000-m_ area, and there were no further
obstacles in presenting the 86 th Volksfest.
The organiser was able to present many novelties
this year. Believe it or not, as many as eight
débutantes provided the visitors with ample variety
throughout the 11-day event. At 7 p.m., the event was
officially opened by Mayor Klaus Herzog inside the
beer tent, before the brilliant fireworks display was
held in the late hours. Among the further highlights
there were the Senior's Day on Monday, the Day of
Companies and Associations, the Family Day, as
well as the closing fireworks display with illumination
of the castle on 24 th June, which once again enticed
many spectators. The Ferris Wheel occupied a new
site this year. It was built up on the other bank of the
Main where the “Bellevue” Ferris Wheel from the
Bruch firm had previously been built up, causing
quite a furore back in the 1990s. Novelties presented
this year included the “Artistico” from Köhrmann,
“sandwiched" almost to the very millimetre between
two booths, Janßen’s “Crazy Mouse“, Dölle’s “Hot
Shot“, Zinnecker’s “The King“, Schäfer’s “Voodoo
Jumper”, as well as the “Top Jack” Simulator from
Böhm, Hempen’s “Big Bamboo”, and Fackler’s
“Après Ski Party”, which replaced a ghost ride at
short notice. They were joined by Schmitt’s dodgem
track, Fackler’s “Rallye Monte Carlo“, Keller’s chain
ride, Brambach’s “Mäuse Stadt“, Hohmann’s “Rund
um den Tegernsee”, and the “Revolution” from Kinzler-Nickel.
Moreover, younger visitors were able to
enjoy an impressive and varied selection of attractions.
A kiddie ride, kiddie track ride, compressed air
ride, a Samba-Balloon, mini-dodgem track, walkingwaterballs
and a bungee-trampoline captured many
kiddies' hearts. In the end, the organiser looked
back on a successful event, despite the initial
problems with high water.

ESU sets guidelines for the cultural recognition of the
European Volksfests
■ International exchange of experiences in Brussels
■ Implementation of the Europanorm 13814 should be reviewed in court
■ A warm welcome to the new French member association
President Albert Ritter (centre) with the Presidents of the French
Showman Association UDAF Jean Claude Peillex (r) and UDAF
Vice President Eric Ciceron.
Over 30 representatives from seven member states of the
European Showman Union had discussions with international
experts on the 19 th June in Brussels about current
themes of the European showman branch.
The central point was the recognition of the European
Volksfests as an immaterial cultural asset as well as the
standardized implementation of the Europanorm 13814
for ride constructions in the EU member countries.
Jens Geier, member of the European Parliament (right with President
Albert Ritter), supporting the interests of the showmen.
In the beginning, Dr. Rob Belemans,
Director of the Flemish
Institute for Immaterial Cultural
Assets and longstanding UN-
ESCO-specialist, together with
Marc Jacobs, spoke about the
process and necessary steps to
be taken for the application for
the admission of the traditional
European Volksfests as immaterial
cultural asset into the World
Heritage listing. ESU-members
must initially make an application
to the National Ministry
of Culture in their own country.
The ESU will therefore prepare
an example with recommendations,
which will be available to
the national Associations.
During the second part of the
discussions held at the cultural
centre FARO, detailed information
was given about the implementation
of the Europanorm
13814 initiated already
ten years ago for ride constructions
in EU member countries.
The ESU demands a European
wide uniform implementation
and criticized the mode of Germany
that doesn't guarantee
any special protection for owners
of older attractions, who as
a result would be disadvantaged.
The ESU representatives agreed
unanimously to take legal
action against this solo effort on
the part of Germany in the European
court of law.
Further themes discussed in
Brussels were the traffic problems
particularly of Irish showman
colleagues, the battle to
safeguard the traditional fair
Sinksenfoor in Antwerp, the development
of educational opportunities
for showman children
in Europe, as well as the current
situation regarding tax
rights.
A hearty welcome was given to
representatives of the French
Showman Association UDAF as
new member of the European
Showman Union by President
Albert Ritter. And just as hearty
European showman representatives during discussions
in Brussels.

a welcome to the ESU circle was given to the
President of the Scottish section of the British
Showman Association, the British Showmen
Guild, Mr Alex James Colquhoun, by Albert
Ritter.
Following a busy day, the participants were
more than satisfied with the results of the
trade discussions.
President Albert Ritter: "There are still
countless challenges standing before us.
And so the work of a strong professional
association is most important. The ESU as
umbrella organisation is the only effective
weapon and spearhead to fend off disasters
for the European showmen." The
Scottish President Alex James Colquhoun
declared: "The showmen in Europe all have
similar problems. If we work together,
these problems will be easier to solve."

The grand opening of a completely

is still an unusual sensation
within the satiated European
amusement park branch. And
this year, all eyes turned
towards the metropole of Istanbul
where the first large and
modern theme park has been
opened in Turkey.

Operations Manager Cem Tuna
Vialand
The fact that it’s one of the largest construction
projects that the Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan
has been attempting to manifest during his already
10 year term of office is irrelevant to mention. However,
although the Vialand project was generally
approved of by the population, other large and intended
mega-projects of his – such as for example
the intended construction of the world’s largest
mosque (and with that causing the possible
UNESCO World Cultural Heritage title revocation)
or the development of Taksim Park (destroying one
of the few green areas in the metropolis) – have
caused more than discontent for the citizens of
Istanbul.
Nevertheless the Vialand project stands for the
successful conversion of an industrial wasteland,
which is located in the centre of the Istanbul city
district of Eyüp, around eight kilometres from the
historic district. The park came into being as a joint
venture of the Via Grup (Bayrakter Insaat) and the
Gürsoy Grup, the two Turkish construction and
54

investment companies, which are not unknown in
the domestic shopping mall and real estate
sectors. The main economic ingredient of the 60
hectare sized grounds is the 35 hectare shopping
mall of the same name, whilst the actual net
footage of the theme park is at the moment 11
hectares, which in future can be extended to 20
hectares.
Due to the unusual property on the rise of an earlier
quarry, the park has a very interesting and almost
unique overal master plan, as it is accessible to
visitors top-down. A grandiose view of a part of
Istanbul and the imminent park area can be seen
from almost every vantage point. Although the
surprise effect of the yet undiscovered is
reduced, the view of the park and the surrounding
area and the anticipation of the
attractions is great. The thematic challenge of
the attractive design of all buildings and
attractions being seen not only from the
facades but also from above has almost been
perfectly resolved. The park design and master
plan was the responsibility of the ANM
Group International. The complete architecture
was by the Dome Partners architectural group.
And parts of the park (the kiddie land and the
spillwater) were themed by Spanish TAA
Industries.
Originally the opening up of the park was
planned to be bottom-up, and the main
entrance was to be between a generous area
that is currently under the “Vialand Express”
station and the imposing waterfall (similar to
Canada’s Wonderland). The area of the current
outside parking section should have been
included which would have resulted in the park
being twice as large as it is now, right from the
beginning. However the trick of having the
entrance above was genial – particularly viewing it
from an economical aspect: all theme park visitors
have to pass a part of the shopping mall in order
to arrive at the entrance.
Vialand Tema Park is not only the only theme park
in Turkey, but also the only one worldwide that
contains Turkish themes – a fact that is rather
astonishing as due to Turkish history, there’s room
for many characteristic themes (Europa-Park is the
only one that has or would think about a Turkish
theme).

Diligent work continues as
before at Vialand Park
Opening Without Main Attractions
The start of construction of the Vialand project took
place in September 2011, and the completion date
was announced to be the 23 rd April 2013, but with
a delay of only one month, the celebration of the
opening could take place: On the 29 th of May the
Vialand Tema Park was opened on the day of the
conquest of Constantinople by the Ottomans in the
year 1453, by the Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan
– unfortunately however without the three largest
attractions. One of them is the family coaster
“Maceraperest” (“The Adventurer”) from Intamin,
which could go into operation on 13 th of July. The
attraction has a length of 600 metres, and a height
of 22 metres. The openly visible track course can
only be described as extremely innovative for a
family coaster, containing characteristics that are
in actual fact more typical for the so-called “Mega-
Lite Coaster” one of which as example is the
“Goliath” at Walibi Holland: the drop converts into
a curve near to the ground, and is followed by
among others two intensive parallel turns. Another
large attraction that will apparently be completed
by August is the 4,000 square metres sized indoor
water ride “Fatih’in Rüyasi” (“Fatih’s Dream”) from
Intamin, which tells the story of Sultan Mehmet
Fatih, the conqueror of Istanbul (1432 – 1481) with
116 figures and animatronics from Heimotion,
whilst the water course also contains a small drop.
Sadly the main attraction of Vialand, the 660 metres
long LIM-coaster “Nefeskesen” (“Breath Taker”)
56

from Intamin will have to wait. In actual fact this 100
kilometre per hour coaster should have gone into
operation at the end of April, but since the placing
of the initial order the location of the coaster was
suddenly changed, which made new design drawings
and calculations necessary, and there’s also
the fact that the supports were definitely to be
made in Turkey. The result: The tracks, despite the
new location were delivered punctually by Intamin,
however the supports were still not finished (after
a good number of improvements had to be made
and the supports were still not satisfactory, they
were finally ordered from Intamin at the end of
April). The current opening date has been
announced as October. Definite is the fact that
once the Launch Coaster has been erected, the
complete picture of the park will be decisively
influenced, as the 45 metres high Top Hat element
will tower over the high cliff of the earlier quarry,
and will present 72 metres height to the ground.
Vertical Park Experience
However, even without these three large attractions
Vialand Park still looks complete. The exposed
location high over the roofs of Istanbul is particularly
unusual, and is most probably only surpassed
by the Tibidabo theme park in Barcelona. The park
entrance is located on the highest geographic
point where the “Vialand Satosu” is situated, an
architectural symbiosis of the Disneyland castles
and Istanbul’s Topkapi-Palace, where the four
One of the main attractions
is without a doubt the “Starshape”,
simply and affectionately
known here as “360”
Zierer’s “Jet Ski” also enjoys
great popularity in Turkey
57

parking levels connect up. Located here are the
two storey carousel from SBF/Visa, the 160 metres
long indoor water ride “Hayal Makinesi” (“Dream
Machine”) from Intamin and Heimotion, a modern
and extensive version of the Disneyland “It’s a
Small World” with Asiatic and European countries,
and the extremely generous kiddie area “Oyuh
Dünyasi” (“Play World”), with a consistent soft floor
– a step that could be followed by all other parks.
There are nine ride constructions for children here
with a minimum size of 90 centimetres, among
them also the “Wacky Worm” kiddie coaster, which
are however presented at all of the many small
Lunaparks in Istanbul.
The strongly slanting street “Bir Zamanlar Istanbul”
(“Once Upon a Time Istanbul”) leads down to the
second level by the name of “Efsaneler Dünyasi”
(“History World”), which contains a generous area
with restoration possibilities, the Wave Swinger
“Saray Salincagi” (“Palace Swinger”) from Zierer,
the entrance to the still not completed indoor water
attraction “Fatih’in Rüyasi” behind an Ottoman
fortification themed facade, and the 50 metres high
Freefall Tower “Adalet Kulesi” (“Tower of Justice”)
from Fabbri. The last mentioned is really something:
only the tip of the tower shows out of the
building, and not only reveals a surprising and
breathtaking view of the park and Istanbul to passengers,
but the following freefall can only be
described as surprisingly intensive. The previewshow
from Heimotion and the building are also
decidedly successful – modelled on the Maiden’s
Tower (on the Asian site of Istanbul) its firmament
design is rich in traditional detail.
Serpentine steps lead visitors down to the main
level called “Macera Dünyasi” (“Adventure World”).
Most of the attractions can be found here: the 480
metre long Spillwater attraction “Viking” from
Intamin with two drops of a 10 and 14 metre height
respectively (the first being substantially wetter than
the second), the family coaster “Maceraperest” from
Intamin, the water attraction “Jet Ski” from Zierer,
58

and the 60-seat 4D-cinema “Hayal Perdesi” (“The
Dream Curtain”) from simworks (two separate
entrances give the impression that there are really
two attractions, however only two constantly changing
films from nWave are shown in the show room).
A large part of this level is comprised of an independent
African theme land, which doesn’t quite fit
into the stereotypical picture of Turkey, and unfortunately,
being the only area in Vialand, has only dusty
gravel paths. The attractions here on the other hand
are all first class: the 13 metre high, 35-seat and
beautifully theme “King Kong” from Huss Rides, the
27 metre high “360” Starshape from Zierer offering
wild inversions, and the 425 metre long and
refreshing “Cilgin Nehir” (“Crazy River”) Rapid Ride
from Intamin.
A slightly sloping path to the lowest and still nameless
level (on the same height level as the outside
parking area), is equipped with two indoor attractions
on the edge of the path: the “Safari Tüneli” is
an interactive Darkride from ETF, Alterface, and
P&P Projects on which riding guests are able to
shoot at various targets. And the “Zindan” (“Dungeon”)
is a not particularly kiddie friendly Ghost
Ride from ETF and Heimotion, which contains a
track course with a number of creepy stops, short
reverse sections, and wet special effects. Both
Darkrides are equipped with seven respectively
ten trackless “Mystic Mover” cars
from ETF from the Netherlands.
In general the Turks are
very fond of children – which is
reflected in the relatively large
kiddie area “Oyuh Dünyasi”
59

Room for Further Attractions
Somewhat disappointing is the current conclusion
of the theme park, the originally planned entrance
area. Around 30 metres under the not yet completed
Launch Coaster there’s still enough area for
future attractions and extensions, however the
huge artificial waterfall that is a great eye catcher
even when driving towards Vialand is a dead end.
Steps lead halfway to the top of the cliff, and the
path ends in a small cave at the back of the
waterfall.
There could have been a Darkride or a Walkthrough
placed here, or even caves leading to the
beginning of the park, in order for visitors to be able
to make a complete circuit of the park. As it is there
are only two possibilities for visitors to land at the
entrance-exit again: either they make their arduous
way back on foot, or they can use the “Vialand
Express”, a street train from Delta Trains, back to
the top.
A viewing ride in the form of a Ferris Wheel or an
Observation tower is not needed at Vialand by the
way, as the available typography almost always
offers an interesting view of the park area and
beyond. Vialand could however do with a large
show or street entertainment.
Although there are 8,000 free parking spaces and
nine free bus line services that connect Vialand
and Istanbul up to 12 times daily, a not yet available
connection with local transport services is
needed urgently, as 30 million visitors are
expected annually. In relation to this it’s interesting
to note that the annual visitor numbers were
increased during the planning time from three to
five million. There are (still) not many modern
shopping malls in Istanbul, and modern theme
parks (still) don’t exist in the whole of Turkey – no
wonder then that Vialand sees itself as a prominent
tourist destination, which even promises a 15
percent increase in the total tourist number of
Istanbul.
60

Merchandise & Islamic Influences
Istanbul’s Summer Resort
In addition to fast-food stands and restaurants
there are also Turkish coffee houses in the park
area in original ambience. And even the shops
have unusually good interior design in oriental
style for a theme park. Nevertheless there are
hardly any Vialand memorabilia that can be purchased
(and there aren’t any on-ride-photos either),
but only trinkets and travel souvenirs, in particular
for Istanbul tourists. This reflects against the
expected visitor numbers, as in addition to the
local visitors, financially strong guests are expected
from the Arabian countries. As it is, Turkey is a
popular holiday destination for Islamic tourists, as
the burka, Carsaf and Chador wearer is more readily
accepted here as in other countries of Europe.
Somewhat disconcerting for non-Muslim visitors is
the summons to prayer five times a day, heard from
the countless minarets of the city. And even in front
of Vialand the unmistakable summons continues
as there are two mosques in the immediate
vicinity of the park. And since the imam has
set up audio equipment, music and the
happy cries of visitors are drowned out at
the park. In general the Turkish population
is unperturbed by the call to prayer. On the
one hand the religion allows two hours time
after each summons in order to be able to
turn towards Mecca (there are no prayer
rooms in the park), and on the other hand
those in liberal Istanbul are a lot less
religious than those in the country – something
that the current Prime Minister
Erdogan is well known to want to change,
forcing the adoption of the shariah and the
abolishment of separation of religion and
state (and with that violates not only EUrights,
but also part of the constitution that
the founder of modern Turkey, Mustafa
Kemal Atatürk, had established in 1923).
Vialand is well worth a visit alone
due to its location. Visitors have a
breathtaking view of parts of Istanbul the whole
year through. But a visit is particularly pleasant
during the summer months as the park in the
heights and the shopping mall’s alleys always
offer refreshing breezes.
And at the very latest, after all attractions have
been opened, Vialand will be up to the standard of
other parks in the European branch. Further along,
the 350,000 square metres outdoor shopping mall
(with 150.000 net square metres) makes
additional offers, and in the upcoming year will be
opening a 5-Star hotel with 250 rooms, not to
mention cosmopolitan Istanbul as well. This 17
million resident city is a vibrating world metropolis
and a melting pot of various cultures, and well
worth a visit.

Since End of May Vialand is open daily from 10:00
a.m. to 7 p.m., on the weekends until at least 9 p.m.
A day ticket on the weekend costs 79 Turkish Lira
(around 31 Euro), on week days 55 TL (21 Euro)
from Monday to Thursday. Children between 4 and
11 years of age pay 63 TL and 44 TL respectively
(approx. 25 and 17 Euro). The theme park is only
closed from the beginning of January to the middle
of February. The shopping mall directly next door
is open daily from 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.
Interview with Cem Tuna
General Manager Mehmet Emeç, who
had worked for Walt Disney World previously,
was involved in Vialand right
from the start. However, shortly after
the opening, he left the company, and
Cem Tuna, who was actually Operations
Manager at Vialand Park, took
over the role of Park Manager.
Mr Tuna, what did you do earlier?
I worked at Dreamworld and White Water
World theme parks in Australia during the past 5
years, last as Events and Park Operations
Manager.
What were the biggest challenges before
the opening?
The education of the 200 permanent employees
took a lot of time and was important, as up until
now there has been no modern operated theme
park of western standards in Turkey. We are the first
one, so within two months we had them up to the
mark, especially as far as safety matters are concerned.
Naturally my experiences at Dreamworld
and White Water World played a role. As a result
we are well prepared for children who have lost
their parents, and the discreet surveillance of the
public conveniences is also of the highest level.
62

We have safety codes and the most modern
communication structure.
Are there however differences between
Vialand and Dreamworld?
The biggest difference is park experience:
Dreamworld has 35 years experience in theme
park operation, Vialand has just started with extra
high standards in safety, and we have more

And what are the differences between
Vialand and ORA World, the first, but also much
smaller park project in Istanbul that opened in
May 2012, but closed permanently only a few
months later?
ORA World had major management issue, and
unfortuanetly didn’t have strong support in finances
and from the city government. ORA was a private
investor’s dream but
couldn’t make the finish
line. Vialand is a partnership
with two major
development companies
with the support of the City
Council. Also, one of the
partners owns a large
building company that built
the whole Vialand project.
What is the capacity
of Vialand Park?
When all attractions
are in operation including
shows and the not yet
completed large constructions,
then we will
come to an hourly capacity
of 8,000 guests.

by the state having a more massive influence
on the tourist sector and with that Vialand as
expected?
We are already counting up to 10,000 visitors
on the weekends. Istanbul has 17 million residents,
and we are of the opinion that alone in this metropolis
there are six million potential visitors. Added
to that, nine million tourists visit annually, many of
them from the Arabian countries. For this reason we
believe initially we can target four million visitors
annually. Now and again we do invite schools, to
fulfil our important social responsibilities.
Also because the Turkish government is
also involved in the Vialand project?
The face of the park: not
all employees speak English

In North America there are only indoor parks.
We are however the world’s first outdoor-theme
park with a shopping mall. And we have attractions
and a theming design that can match larger parks.
For this reason the park can naturally do without as
well.
Up until now, very often whole schools are
invited in the first week of operation to simulate
a full park. Are the government-critical
demonstrations which have been advanced on
The complete project is privately financed –
an investment amount by the way of 1.15 million
Turkish Lire (approximate conversion 460 million
Euro). It is the largest private construction project
since the coming into being of the Turkish states,
in other words since 1923! Nevertheless the
grounds are still owned by the city of Istanbul, as
due to the horrendous real estate prices, there’s no
way a project of this size could be realized. The
deal: after 30 years, Vialand, including properties
and holdings will be handed over to the state.

COASTER
The 8-seat cars have
been noticeably designed
rich in detail
Everything that Erlebnispark
Tripsdrill tackles is “... done
with love.” This nice advertising
slogan of the park is known by
almost everybody in the branch
in the meantime. But it really is
so, or is quite similar at the
Swabian theme park, with a proper
portion of local atmosphere.
There has never been just
any sort of attraction “off the
rack” installed at the park, but
completely individual designs
have been realized, which make
the attractions, and with that the
park into something really
special. So it is not by chance
that the very new roller coaster
“Karacho” has turned out to be
something really unusual.

Gerstlauer Amusement
Rides have realized
50 coasters in only 15
years, and “Karacho” is the
anniversary edition of the
Swabian manufacturer! Our
heartfelt congratulations!
Karacho
Already shortly after the installation of the last
large coaster five years ago – the wooden
coaster “Mammut” from Cordes Coaster – a survey
showed that visitors wanted a fast looping
coaster. “We were happy to comply” said 27 year
old Benjamin Fischer, who has become a member
of management since the beginning of 2013, and
travels all over the world
together with his father
Ronald and uncle Helmut
to compile ideas for their
own coaster. It was to be a
Launch Coaster, determined
right from start. “And
we wanted something
similar to ‘Oblivion’ at
Alton Towers, where the
train drops into a tunnel.
We’ve got that now, but
much smaller”, smiled
General Manager Helmut
Fischer. And at our park
we drop into the tunnel
with a dive loop; that’s
unique worldwide”,
added nephew Benjamin proudly. “A Heartline-
Roll directly at the start as at Thorpe Park and
Hansa-Park appeared interesting for us during internal
family brainstorming”, explained Helmut
Fischer, “but we didn’t want a vertical lift in the
middle of the track, as in our opinion it would have
hampered the smooth ride sequence”. As a result
the elements of the coaster were decided on step
by step, and the feasibility checked together with
manufacturer Gerstlauer and the Stengel offices.
The end result is called “Karacho”, a coaster with
an incredible layout!
66

However, how do the world’s most popular ride
figures combined into one construction really ride?
Remarkably well, as despite the variation of the
most different elements on the relatively short 700
metre track course, the interaction can only be
described as perfect. And because the eight-seat
cars have no shoulder restrains but laudably only
lap bars, the ride fun will not produce any unpleasant
surprises even after quite a number of years
of operation. Additionally, the cars are equipped
with a completely spring mounted chassis, which
also has a positive effect on ride comfort.
We take our places in one of the eight slightly
heightened seats, put on the comfortable lap bars,
and we’re ready to roll. In a leisurely 180° curve
we say goodbye to all those waiting and roll into
darkness. But here there’s no comfortable Darkride
sequence waiting for us, but without any
warning we shoot six metres upwards into a Heartline-Roll,
which is followed by an also unexpected
short but intense drop that lands us on the straight
acceleration section. At a flying start we catapult
at 2,000 horse power in only 1.6 seconds to 100
kilometres per hour. We race in the open where a

“Top Hat” rams us into the skies 30 metres
vertically. Wow what a brilliant overture! In the
lofty heights there’s hardly any time to take a
breath, as we race almost immediately with abundant
airtime vertically towards the ground...only
to win height subsequently once again – this time
in the form of a vertical loop, that is run into and
then exited from at the side. A straight stretch
leads us into an overbanked steep curve leading
again down towards ground level. Following a parallel
turn we travel into the trim brakes. A short
breather and the conclusion begins. Whilst most
looping coasters only offer a helix or at the most a
last simple twist, “Karacho” offers a sheer breathtaking
finale: after a 360° curve we twist through
an Immelmann that begins the wrong way around,
and drop headlong into the misty tunnel, only to
reach the open a split second later with a simple
corkscrew. It’s only then – after these thrilling
moments – that the magnet brakes take a grip and
we roll into the station. Phew, made it...but what an
experience!
68

Once again operator family Fischer has done
everything right, as with the medium sized roller
coaster, the Gerstlauer team has delivered a
masterpiece, and a layout that can’t be found
anywhere else in the world. And when by spring
2014 the sophisticated outside design and the
theming of the station area are completed, Tripsdrill
has another non-typical attraction that
radiates Swabian humour, and is up to the
standard of the big ones in the branch. ■

all passengers
Fårup Sommerland has an exceptional
position in Denmark:
the park is situated in a well
frequented holiday region, and
is located not far from the large
cities of Aalborg and Arhus.
However it is in a permanent
competitive situation with a park
that although situated 150 kilometres
away, serves almost an
identical target group: Djurs
Sommerland. And so in Jutland
there’s a curious race taking
place with only one sure winner:
the visitor.

Dam Jensen and a view into the

Orkanen
And as friendly as the relationship between
Fårup-Chief Sören Kragelund and Djurs-Boss
Henrik B. Nielsen may be, when it’s about plans
for the future, there’s naturally absolute silence
and poker faces between the two companies. And
it can happen that one park is in front of the other
as far as ideas are concerned.
And that’s how it happened in the area of water
attractions: in 2011 Djurs presented the Mack
water coaster “Skatteoen” – and according to
rumours, Fårup was also interested in a Spillwater
type of attraction. But one has to get the edge over
its competitor. What’s the solution? Build a water
attraction when the competitor has just built one?
Not Fårup. Denmark’s first Family Suspended
Coaster from Vekoma came into being in Saltum,
which, following Gröna Lund’s “Kvasten”, is only
the second construction of this type in Scandinavia,
and the third in Europe.
“Orkanen” is the name of the new attraction that is
erected on the lake and the bordering grounds,
which in this area of the park, results in a real
family-thrill-concentration with two main attractions.
“Orkanen” and “Falken” share a common
souvenir shop, which, due to necessity, has to be
driven through, however their entrances are far
apart from each other so that on peak days no
70

unwanted congestion situations occur.
Responsibility for the design of “Orkanen” was in
the personal hands of designer Rasmus Altenborg
and park chief Sören Kragelund. The outside of
the construction was fitted to the theme: debris lies
around everywhere; the hurricane apparently has
caused a lot of damage. Even in the station there
is not one stone left upon the other. Here in particular
the terrific design must be mentioned due to
Sören Kragelund. Authentic tools and workshop
cupboards, which function very practically as
storage space for the bags and backpacks of the
riding guests, were searched for all over Denmark.
And the Würth-calendar with bikini girls can’t be
missing either – after all fishing and boat building
is a male domain.
In the station things really take off as the processing
can’t be any quicker. In parts, the train has a
standing time of only 50 seconds. This is due to
the fact that those at Fårup have waived additional
belts on the from overhead lap bars. The
resulting theoretic capacity of 670 persons per
hour is reached in practice, and is for a park like
Fårup Sommerland adequate. “When the day is
slow we send the train on for a second round”
explained Manager Per Dam Jensen.
Whereas two rounds one after the other on “Orkanen”
could be a little too much for a part of the
family public, as the attraction is a little too intense
for a family Inverter, and can hardly be compared
to both constructions of the same type – Gröna
Lund’s more or less tranquil rounds on “Kvasten”
Almost all of the track
course runs over a water

or even “Jimmy Neutrons Atomic Flyer” at Movie
Park Germany. The first drop offers lots of airtime
in the back seats, and the rest of the course is
travelled through at a crisp and permanently high
tempo, which is due in particular to the fact that
the ride actually doesn’t win on height again.
Additionally, the course travels near to natural
surroundings and past the theming elements
consistently. “This contributes enormously to the
feeling of freedom that the passengers experience
during the ride” said Per Dam Jensen, showing his
satisfaction of the ride. “One has the feeling of
almost being able to touch the surroundings whilst
flying past.”
Ride on a Watersurface
And the park did a lot to achieve this. The highlight
here is the first drop that leads through a foggy
tunnel under the water surface of the lake. And the
fog effect functions perfectly. The walls of the
tunnel have been painted a matt black so that passengers
really can’t see anything – a great effect that
maybe colleagues from Alton Towers should take a
look at in order to upgrade “Oblivion”. Following the
tunnel, the 10-car train travels into a Horseshoe element,
a curve with heavy overbanking. The g-forces
here shouldn’t be disregarded, but at no time
does one feel unsafe in the strongly angled seats
to the back. The train is then led near to and over
the water surface and absolves a right curve in the
direction of the station, whilst the course elevates
slightly. The next highlight is a helix that clings to the
station building and reaches the maximum acceleration
of 3.8 g here. Passengers are pressed strongly
into their seats, and this is the exact spot where
one must pose the question as to whether the ride
befits a family coaster. Doesn’t matter – the passengers
seem to like it, which results in a high number
of repeat rides.
72

Following the killer-helix, an ascent follows over
and away from the station – some passengers pull
their legs back fearfully, although there is naturally
enough space. Positive to note is that the element
over the station is not just absolved straight ahead
but that there’s been a little swerve added. The next
helix is already waiting on the other side of the
station building, left and upwards once again – and
this also leads so near to the ground that a small
trench had to be dug under the course. The speed
here is phenomenal. The attraction appears a lot
faster than it actually is. And that’s the way it should
be – not vice versa. The helix is followed by a turn
and a right curve before it travels once again
under the water surface, and then through a destroyed
boat house and over a small dip. Work has
been done here also with fog and the effect functions
similarly as well as in the tunnel after the first
drop. A powerful curve and the train narrowly
misses a stranded fishing boat before it’s back into
the station, where due to the last curve the train
comes to a standstill at an ample tilt.
A Family Coaster Not Only for Families
Summary: Is this still a Family Suspended Coaster
in the classical sense? Actually it’s not. Is “Orkanen”
a powerful coaster on which the whole family
can have a lot of fun? Absolutely! “Orkanen” is
without a doubt the most mature FSC from
Vekoma. The ride characteristics are excellent;
there are no bangs, but lots of speed and diversity
instead. With “Orkanen” both Vekoma and Fårup
Sommerland have proved once again that an FSC
is not obliged to belong in a kiddie area, but can
be staged as a main attraction!

Four Tower Constructions on Strip of Land
As the grounds are elongated, four slide towers
had to be erected. Unusual also is that there is no
common pool where the slides end, but each slide
has its own run-off area. This is an advantage of
course in the minor area available, and is also
cheaper with a smaller sized filtration plant.
Unfortunately the water park does not have a
larger pool where visitors can swim or splash
around. On the other hand there are relaxing
zones available with a sandy beach atmosphere,
palms, and deck chairs. Entrance to Aquaventura
only costs an extra six Euro in addition to the
normal theme park ticket.
Children in particular can experience
their first slide platform
at a height of three metres. The
slides between a 17 to 31
metres length from the Polin series
“Pirates Splash” (Compact
Slide), “Funtasy” (Wide Slide)
and “Purple Torpedo” (Freefall)
offer varied slide experiences.
For more adult Aquaventura
visitors there are other start
towers available. The 67 metres
long compact slide “Tornado
Twist” starts from a 7.5 metre
slide tower, and the “Double
Trouble” from one level lower at
five metres.
When all this is not enough then
there’s the next slide tower
supported by five slides. All of
them start at a height of ten
metres, but are of varied construction:
“Twist & Twirl” offers a
curvy 88 metre layout going downhill, the “Dark
Devil” tube slide requires on the other hand a tube
for one or two persons for the one and half time
helix and daylight effects. A completely different
slide experience is offered by the “Green Fall”
freefall slide, which is even a challenge for thrill
seekers: a 36 metre length and a maximum speed
of 41 km/h all speak for themselves. The U-shaped
Boomerang Slide “Wacky Wave” brings passengers
to a speed of 46 km/h travelling downhill
steeply initially before stabilising like a Halfpipe.
At the same time, up to four passengers can have
a race on the 65 metre long “Rainbow Racer”
simultaneously.

The longest slide makes its start from a 14 metre
high slide tower, where its name is also its programme:”Xtreme”
initially offers open slide fun on
a total length of 140 metres before mutating into a
pipe slide together with daylight effects: Polin
places semitransparent rings in the pipes, so that
the lighting effects are not supplied by the usual
electronics .
Unfortunately not all slides were completed by the
official opening at the end of June, however all
attractions are now in operation. Distinctly obvious
was the not completely finished grouting on
individual slide elements that cut down on slide
comfort considerably. This type of work was
scheduled for the fine-tuning phase – the complete
water park area was closed again after the
official opening – temporarily.
Résumé: The idea of combining water and theme
park is not new, and in actual fact always promises
success. However whilst it’s in the Scandinavian
parks of all places that the combination of outdoor
water park and theme park exists more frequently,
it is not widespread in Central Europe – actually
a shame as this practice has advantages for both
the operator and the visitor: more attractions, a
larger visitor capacity in accordance to size, operation
costs can be well planned, and there’s fun
for the whole family simultaneously.
The Hellendoorn slide portfolio also offers a fitting
slide for every visitor, from the small child right up
to the thrill seeker. It remains to be seen however
whether the visitor wants to visit a pure slide park
where there is no normal pool or even a smaller
one for little children, especially having to pay
extra in addition to the regular park entrance price
– there is no separate entrance from outside and
is not one in planning. As the Netherlander are not
known to be water shy, Aquaventura should be a
complete success – so long as the weather plays
along!

had something that one could build on, and we’re
very happy with the result.”
Interesting Story
The story is also really original: the Nordic gods
return to the armoury of Walhalla for the great
battle of Ragnarök. Heimdall takes his horn, Odin
his spear, Sutr fetches his flaming sword, and
finally Thor takes his trusty Mj¢lnir, his hammer. But
was that really Thor? No it is the evil Loki who had
disguised himself as Thor!
The task of the ride guests therefore is to bring
back Thor’s hammer, right in the middle of Nordic
unpredictability.
“Thors Hammer” uses the gigantic spaciousness
of an artificial cave here, which had previously
been occupied by the simulation show “Viking
Toktet”. This curious show had its fans by all
means, but “it’s time had come” said Björn Harvard
Soli. Actually a pity as the show in which visitors
took their place on an enormous Viking ship
had a somewhat “special” charm; however the
placid multimedia swing was no longer modern.

ride system with central tracks was chosen, instead
of the popular trackless system from the
same manufacturer. The richly curved ride
travels through creepy forests, over huge
rivers and into icy caves. It becomes warm,
cold, windy and wet. And countless rough journeymen
obviously have something against
Thor getting his hammer back – among them
prominent representatives such as the Midgard
Serpent. And so this is the way the 6-
member crew fights its way through. They experience
a number of unsightly encounters
with Loki and his frightening offspring, until in
an impressive showdown when the chaises remain
standing in front of a 180° screen for about
15 seconds and ride guests experience a
flight sequence, Thor’s hammer is saved, and
the god personally thanks the successful assistants
for a short while.
“Thor’s Hammer” is not a Ghost Ride, but is
creepy and exciting. And it’s certainly nothing for
really small children, so that’s the reason that the
minimum size (tentatively) has been set at 1.2
metres. Additionally the chaises go through really
fast movements now and again during which time
passengers have to hold on. Just how thrilling
“Thors Hammer” really is, could be experienced
one day before opening by Norway’s Minister of
Labour, Anniken Huitfeldt, who was filmed during
the experience and appeared relatively disorientated
to readers of the online edition of a large daily
newspaper. Apparently this type of ride was a new
experience for the 43 year old.
Résumé: “Thors Hammer” presents a new generation
of Darkride. It’s technically challenging
and offers an impressive ride experience despite
a narrow budget frame, which most financial controllers
would cry down as “not possible”. Certainly
5.7 million Euro is no steal, but for many companies
has to be financed. The story is lively and
easy to understand, and makes ride guests accomplices
of the most popular of all gods in Nordic
mythology. Congratulations to Tusenfryd and
Parques Reunidos for deciding on a ride that won’t
break any records, or must appear in the newspapers
particularly. And above all things, for a ride
where the ride experience is paramount – and not
a number on a LED display.

more than on normal operating days. And it’s no
wonder, as almost all attractions remain open,
among them not only all coasters but also most of
the kiddie attractions! Added to that, there are also
lighting concepts, special shows, and a number
of party locations such as foam parties and openair
discos. This special atmosphere not only
entices the young, but also quite noticeably, many
families.
The “White Nights” was first presented in 2012.
This year all park night owls attended, or alternatively
can get their fill on the following dates: 18 th
May, 29 th June, 27 th July,, 17 th of August, and 7 th of
September.

SEA WORLD ORLANDO
SeaWorld-Park located in the
amusement capital Orlando,
opened a new attraction at the
end of May together with a new
theme area: “Antarctica: Emipre
of the Penguin”

The merger of ride constructions with animals
was until recently one of the most prominent features
of the northern American SeaWorld- and
Busch-Gardens-Parks. Recently the European
Merlin Entertainments Group also found favour with
the idea of bringing this unusual relationship profitably
into its portfolio. Officially the fact that from
both park groups Steve Schwarzman and his
Private Equity Blackstone is one of the larger investors
is irrelevant. The fact is that they are apparently
inspired by the North American park highlights
of this type: for example “Zufari” at Chessington
World of Adventures (KPR 6/2013), “Polar
Xplorer” at Legoland Billund (KPR 7/2012) or also
“Achtung: Pinguine” at the new Ocean Abenteuer
Park (KPR 6/2013).
At the moment the combination of ride attraction
and penguins appears to be highly popular, especially
as SeaWorld Orlando has also opened its
new attraction “Antarctica: Empire of the Penguin”.
At the same time it’s the largest extension in the
park’s history, as it not only contains ride

constructions but also a completely new theme
land together with a huge animal habitat. And it’s
there that the visitors dive into the Antarctic with
temperatures at almost under 0° Celsius, icy winds
and snow covered mountains. In the process, Puck
the little gentoo penguin takes them into his world
and his colony of over 250 species. The participants
conquer the way there in quite large cars from
Oceaneering accommodating up to 8 persons.
Visitors may choose from two different intensity
levels. Both routes are quite similar, the impressions
vary however due to the vehicle movements – when
compared to “Wild Expedition”, visitors observe the
surroundings better when choosing “Mild Expedition”.
In both cases the ride itself is relatively short,
however caters to all the senses – the temperatures
become colder from room to room, the vehicle
moves around freely in the room ( so perceived),
and multimedia scenes provide for much variety.
The coldest attraction in the theme park metropolis
Orlando is the family friendly adventure ride, which
is also an educational expedition tour.

EURASIA RESORT LAS VEGAS
This is a project – in the event
that it happens – that could only
be built in Las Vegas. In that city
there are already replicas of
Venice, Paris, Rome, and New
York.

Now however a Russian
conglomerate from
Novosibirsk plans to reproduce
it all again – a
copy of a copy so to speak
– on a huge abandoned
airport area, only a few kilometres
away from the city
borders. Whether or not it’s
a great business idea has
to be decided by those
concerned. Those who are
convinced of the idea can
become a partner: all investors are heartily welcome
with an investment amount beginning at 10,000 US
Dollars. According to unconfirmed rumours, the
Canadian shopping mall operator Triple Five is one
of the first large investors, as the world’s largest
shopping mall is also being planned on the 485 hectare
grounds. Further along there is also an indoor
and outdoor theme park in the planning with a 243
m sized Ferris Wheel. The official head office of the
Eurasia Resorts International Ltd., is Nassau. ■
AMERICAN DREAM
The title, the largest shopping
mall in the world, appears to be
very lucrative. The world’s
largest in China stands shortly
before completion, and another
two further projects have already
been announced: the first – once
again, and for that reason maybe
a question mark should be
placed here – a location in Dubai,
and the other in Las Vegas.

And in the process the Triple Five Group from the
Canadian-Iranian family Ghermezian is merging
in with the market very strongly.
Already the group’s eye has been cast towards a
very lucrative location in the immediate vicinity of
New York City, taking over the earlier project called
Xanadu, a shopping and entertainment centre in
New Jersey, which in actual fact should have already
opened in 2006 with a Ferris Wheel and
coaster.
In the meantime the project called American
Dream Meadowlands is striving towards an opening
in 2014. The huge building including an indoor
ski run has been completed for years; however
Triple Five wants to build the shopping mall, a water
park, and an indoor theme park before the
opening.
Currently the football club New York Giants is
suing against the scheme as the football
association fears that the predicted 40,000 daily
visitors to the mall will create a traffic chaos that
cannot be coped with on match days, not to
mention the filled to capacity suburban trains of
New York.
The newly erected Metlife Stadium is also located
in East Rutherford on the opposite side of the very
long street, around 10 kilometres away from
Manhattan.

In the theme park OCT East Resort, Shenzhen, the
erection of a new “Shoot-the-Chutes” is well
underway.
A construction team has rebuilt and extended an
existing lake at the mountain park, to make enough
room for the ride attraction. In the meantime the
landmark of the park, the White Water attraction is
undergoing intensive repair work, following a fire in
the artificial rock facade.

Large extensions are currently being undertaken
at the impressive Changzhou theme park China
Dinosaur Park. At the present time a new family area
is being erected in the front area. “Dinotoon” will
offer a choice of urgently needed attractions for the
younger visitors, who have been more or less forgotten
until now.
At the back end of the park that may well become
the front section, another large project is being
realized – “Adventure
Port”. Similar to the Universal
City Walk, there
will be a mixture of
restaurants and rides
here, however there will
also be indoor rides
installed: Italian manufacturer
Zamperla is delivering
a “Mini Jet 6”, a
small Ferris Wheel, a
dodgem ride, a “Demolition
Derby” and an
“Aero Top Jet”. ■
