cookiex Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Another new land perhaps? The area looks large enough for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanTPM Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 ^They have a coaster planned for 2017, so that could be where it's going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jumper Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 The park never confirmed a new coaster for 2017. No idea where this came from. The large construction area in the picture will be a new warehouse building on the old employee parking lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanTPM Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 ^Actually yeah,you're right about the coaster. But they did confirm a big ride as said here. http://presse.europapark.com/de/presse/nachricht/datum/2016/01/04/geburtstagsjahr-2015-im-europa-park-endet-mit-rekord-von-55-millionen-besuchern/ ongoing projects: - new for 2016: Ireland area with 10 attractions, 3 new rides and an indoor area - an event/concert hall - a new logistics center - spring 2017: a big ride, "of this kind" unique in Europe - summer 2018: a new hotel with 1000 beds - winter 2018: first phase of the waterpark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dar Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 There are rumors of a "Soarin'" type of ride where the old guesthouse Rolando is, hence the EP Express extension Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarlaKoaster Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 I'd be really happy with a Soarin' style ride! I wonder if this would be a Mack version or not? I assume it will be as they really seem to be pushing new products lately with the new Walibi rides. I also would be really happy to see Europa strengthen their dark ride collection as Arthur is the only one there that I feel is really world class (unless I'm totally missing one?!).

cookiex Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Interesting that they decided to close down Rolando given that it's the only hotel they had in a lower price range. Hopefully the 2018 hotel could fill that gap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uh, yeah. BENCH: THE RIDE! Most hardcore ride in history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nrthwnd Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 I know it's just a children's/family coaster...but Holy Shamrocks, Batman! It makes me want them to enlarge it, and add more track and theming, LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cookiex Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 I'm researching for my trip to Phantasialand + Europa Park on the second week of June and I'm already running into obstacles. The hotel I'm looking at is already fully booked on the 8th so I had to push back my arrival to Rust by at least one day (the original plan was to go PL Monday and Tuesday, then take the night train to EP and go Wednesday and Thursday). I don't really want to book until I get confirmation on when Taron at PL opens but by that point there might not even be a single place in Rust left. And no, I don't have the budget to stay at the resort hotels, especially since they don't even include park tickets in the room fare. They really need a cheaper option now that Rolando's closed down.

Itachi Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 I'm more a fan of spreading kiddie rides across the park, although I understand it is easier for parents and kids to have a lot of kiddie rides in a small(er) place, but this area just looks great, as expected from Europa Park.
