linearinduction Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 ^ Very True. The Maurer Coasters at Lagoon are the same way, where brakes have to be checked and adjustments made in the afternoon, if necessary, and they have a Fenced In Area for Maintenance to do that while the ride is operating.

simon8899 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 So far only saying heavily injured at German news sites. No information on the cuase of the accident is disclosed due to ongiong investigations. On the other hand the show seems to go on as so far the Miss WorldCup 2014 contest will still be held this evening at the Colosseo. But maybe this will be cancelled or postponed on short notice.

Belgiumcoasterfreak Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Yesterday, the new Arthur land was open for public, some kind of soft opening (nothing official). Finally, this place is opening up, can't wait to try it myself in July : Thanks to www.faz.net for the pictures! Full German article: http://www.faz.net/aktuell/technik-motor/umwelt-technik/neues-fahrgeschaeft-im-europapark-im-schwebeflug-durch-die-maerchenwelt-12967197.html The place looks beautiful !

ansley Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 I hope it is open soon, we're visiting in about two weeks! I'm excited to re-visit my #1 park! Ted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPSFMMCW Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 wow lookin good! Can't wait for a POV for arthur! looks cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cal1br3tto Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 For some reason, I assumed that was already open. At any rate, it looks incredible! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterfreak101 Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 For some reason, I didn't realize that the interior was a whole Arthur-themed land in itself. Amazing what this park continues to put out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Notturna Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Arthur is really cool!! The themeing is great and inside the hall they switch between daytime and nighttime every so often. The powered coaster is a really fun ride. We had the chance to ride it twice and if there had been more time I would have loved to ride it more. I think it's a very nice addition to the park Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanJB Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 ^From what I can gather, there's been a couple of private events where attendees have been allowed to ride, but there's still no official word on when it will open. I'll be there in just over a week and I'm not holding my breath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The photos are from a soft opening. It isn't officially open yet, but some sites are claiming it will be officially open for public somewhere around 20 - 28 June. So hopefully it's open when you are there . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be there in just over a week and I'm not holding my breath. We were lucky enough to attend one of these and against all expectations we got to ride the coaster and the kiddy flat rides in the Arthur hall. The Macks told us that they are working as hard as they can to get everything finished but they wouldn't make any promises as to when the Arthur area would officially open.

GeorgeT Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Had my first rides on Arthur today. The Onride is NOT doing the ride justice. Not at all. I think Arthur is the best ride at Europa Park...I just LOVED it ! Greeds...GeorgeT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Notturna Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 While the POV is nice and gives you a general idea it doesn't do the ride justice at all. Especially the coaster parts are just so much fun and you really get that "wheeee!" feeling. Or at least our group did. You should all go to Europa Park and experience it yourselves It really hurts that I'm driving right past the park next week on my way to Italy, with no time to go in for a quick visit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCT3Bross Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 On the POV it looks like a fun ride. Normally I'm not that into family coasters with a kids theme, but I think I'm going to lik this one. I think next year a stop at the park to get this en Wodan will be worht it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jray21 Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 I love the family rides at Europa Park. They all have awesome theming, and are really unique. This one looks like an awesome addition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
