 Park News - (12/22/2024) Europa-Park reports that the Tonnevirvel attraction at Rulantica (a Mack Twist ‘n’ Splash) is now back in action, freshly installed into a new indoor structure that will allow for the wet and wild water ride to be enjoyed year-round.
(10/5/2024) Mack Rides is offering a preview of their new trackless ride vehicle system at Europa Park daily “from 17:30 to the end of Halloween Time”. Riders put on a VR set and climb aboard for a sneak peek of Eden Manor with the “Journey to Eden VR Ride” experience.
(7/13/2024) Europa Park held a live stream to announce details about “Projekt 2025: The Magic of Tomorrow”. It’s a fun video that showcased quite literally the entire company’s project visions, moving from just the Mack Rides company brand to the creation of so many other creative and multi-media divisions like Mack Media, Mack One and Mack Magic who work not only to create new attractions, but to develop and create the company’s own IPs.
This leads up to an announcement about a full feature-length film coming to theaters world-wide in 2025 featuring Europa-Park’s own Ed and Edda mascot characters called “Ed & Edda: Grand Prix of Europe”. You can follow the link to watch the whole live-stream, or catch the teaser for the new animated film below.
2025 - Grand Prix EDventure / Interactive Dark Ride / Stunt Show - (1/11/2025) Europa-Park has announced that they will open a new Zorro themed stunt show in honor of the park’s 50th Anniversary this year. The experience will take place inside the park’s Spanish Arena, which has been upgraded to now feature a fully covered roof and 2,000 guest seats.
(11/8/2024) Europa-Park has confirmed that they will open a new interactive dark ride called featuring park mascots, Ed & Edda, which will also serve as a tie-in to Mack Magic’s new animated film hitting theaters that summer, Grand Prix of Europe. The new attraction will be named “Grand Prix EDventure” and according to the post at Blooloop, the new 3D Dark Ride will be located in the park’s Luxembourg area and use Mack Ride’s new Gameplay Theater attraction platform which merges the concept of a dark ride and interactive gaming into a small footprint experience.
The park map on the official website shows the new attraction appearing to take over the space of the Europa Park Museum & Historama revolving theater attraction, located just below the Food Loop restaurant space.
(7/11/2024) Is a new Dark Ride in the works for Europa Park in 2025? According to a new video update from Chall Chats, the park is planning something new to celebrate the park’s 50th anniversary next year.
According to the video the new attraction is said to be a replacement to the park’s “Journey to Rulantica” multi-media theater attraction in the Luxembourg area, which served as a preview to the themed world of the Rulantica waterpark. The attraction closed on June 2nd, so work on whatever is planned for 2025 is already under way.
The interesting replacement described in the video would be for something called a Mack Rides Gameplay Theater concept. It’s a neat concept where ride vehicles seat riders in a back-to-back configuration and travel around a circular path, once facing outwards from the ring and then make another look facing the spaces on the inside of the ring before exiting. The “Gamerplay” concept comes through the use of some sort of interactive device, such as a blaster or pointer device to interact with targets in each room space. Based on the concept art, the rooms guests will see would likely be a mix of both three dimensional themed spaces as well as interactive screens. In the second video below you can see Mack Rides’ own presentation for the Gameplay Theater concept.
